Description

The Met Audio Guide offers more than one hundred hours of audio commentary about works of art in the Metropolitan Museum of Art's permanent collection and select special exhibitions. New material—including content in 10 languages—is added on a continual basis.

The Audio Guide's native iOS application and custom backend CMS were completely redesigned and re-launched in the fall of 2013. The new system was deployed on 1,600 iPod Touches at the Met and Cloisters.
