New app IVIE - the digital city guide (available for iOS and Android) from the Vienna Tourist Board casts the capital's sights in a fresh new light, and has no end of insider tips, stories and anecdotes on tap. Themed city walks and info for everyday urban life are also part of the new digital city and tour guide for Vienna.

IVIE - the digital city guide is the ideal companion for exploring Vienna, casting the city in all its rich variety in a whole new light. The Vienna Tourist Board's free app for iOS and Android uses hundreds of photos and dozens of videos to paint an immersive picture of life in the capital. The app is not just about the big attractions such as Schönbrunn Palace, the Prater and Giant Ferris Wheel, St. Stephen's Cathedral, and the Ringstrasse. IVIE knows all the tucked-away museums, architectural gems, beautiful parks, great markets, and a load of other places that a lot of locals might not necessarily be aware of, but are always worth a visit.

And IVIE is always good for a story or anecdote: where did the architect Otto Wagner immortalize himself in a giant statue of a lion? Which of the city's museums has 6,000-year-old makeup pallettes on show? And how many golden leaves make up the cupola of the Secession building? IVIE even knows how many nights a guest has to spend in Schönbrunn Palace before they can claim to have slept in every room.

Its Walks & Guides feature contains fascinating city walks: there's an audio walk taking in Beethoven's Vienna, another covering Viennese Modernism and others focusing on unusual museums and modern architecture. IVIE - the digital city guide is also a fount of practical information. It always knows the way to the nearest drinking water fountain or public toilet.
