Founded by Chris Reid and Andrew Farris, the On This Spot app allows you to experience Vancouver’s unique history in a whole new way. How does it work? Point your phone at a landmark and instantly see a historical photograph of the same location. Our favourite component however is the app’s camera editor, which allows you to place yourself into historic photos at the same spot they were originally taken. So cool!
Other Features:
- Hundreds of historic photos mapped out with pinpoint accuracy.
- Tours on based on a variety of subjects: from the Great Fire of Vancouver to Chinatown to Vancouver's real estate history.
- Frequent updates and new content.
- 11 walking tours of the city.
