Press play at every stop.
Tellstop is an audio guide player for boats, buses and walking tours. One track per stop. The track ends, the player stops, the next stop is ready.
Built for the person holding the phone, not the one who recorded the guide.
A live guide reads the boat. A media player reads the clock. Tellstop reads the crew: it never starts the next track on its own.
One track per stop, or one audiobook with chapters: every chapter becomes a stop. File names set the order. Add a note per stop, like "when the lighthouse is visible". Read the guide.
One big button. The track plays to the end and stops by itself. Pause, restart, skip, always within reach.
No hunting through a playlist while steering. The next track and its note are on screen, waiting for the next press.
Where it fits
The skipper presses play as each island, factory or lighthouse passes. Coffee break in the middle? Add a pause marker with no audio.
The driver or host runs the commentary between stops without touching a playlist. Works with the vehicle's aux input.
A guide with a Bluetooth speaker, or a self-guided route on a visitor's own phone. Nothing to install from an app store.
Fjords, tunnels and country roads have no signal. Every track is stored on the device the first time.
While a track plays, the screen will not lock. Hardware media keys and keyboard shortcuts work too.
The interface follows the device language. Your audio can be in any language you like.

Questions
Does Tellstop work without internet?
Yes. Once a tour is loaded on the device, every track is stored locally. Boats and buses out of coverage keep working.
Why does it stop after every track?
Because a tour follows landmarks, not a clock. The crew presses play when the stop is in view; nothing plays on its own in between.
What audio formats can I use?
MP3, M4A/AAC, WAV, OGG and FLAC. Pick all the files for a tour at once; file names set the order.
How does the crew get the tour?
With Tellstop Cloud you upload once and hand the crew an eight-character share code. They enter it on their device and the whole tour downloads for offline use, no account needed.
How do I connect it to the speakers?
Any phone, tablet or laptop works. Use the 3.5 mm jack or a USB-C/Lightning adapter into the PA or the vehicle's aux input, or a Bluetooth speaker for walking tours.
Who makes Tellstop?
mSales Norway AS in Kristiansand. It was built for the sightseeing boat MS Maarten and then made available to everyone.
