NaturePods are a brand new innovation
coupling the capabilities of today’s hand-held media
with old fashioned stories and information about the outdoors.
You may therefore have questions about how it works.
If you don’t see the answer to your question here, please submit your question directly to us, and we will be happy to answer you. We may also add the question and answer here to our FAQ for others who may need to know.

How much space will a NaturePod take on my device?
Each NaturePod is a little different, but as a general rule, you should have about 1 gigabyte of space available for the program. Now, some of you, especially iTouch and iPhone users, might be thinking, “wow, that’s a lot of space,” but remember that many of our national parks or natural areas have little or no cell phone service. We have chosen to put the entire program on your device, so you will never have to worry about reception.
Who are the Authors of NaturePods?
We are continually searching the country for the best naturalists we can find. We seek out people who not only have a great deal of knowledge, but also have strong communication skills so that we can effectively share their knowledge with you.
I don’t already own a personal media device. Which should I get?
The iPod Touch and the iPhone both accept apps available from the iTunes App Store. This is where you can find the NaturePod you are looking for.
How are NaturePods different from free national park podcasts?
Just as you might find a variety of printed materials about a national park, some free and some costly, new programming for personal media devices will also run the gamut. At NaturePods, we create a product that provides a depth of knowledge to enhance your visit to the parks. We have found exceptional people to author each guide. They bring this detailed knowledge and understanding to each NaturePod. We then wrap it into a complete and searchable product that will allow you to access the information you want when you want it.
