About this app

Ever stood in front of ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs and wished you could read them?

Amun turns your iPhone into an instant translator for 3,000 years of Egyptian history. Point your camera at any hieroglyphic inscription or artifact — at Karnak Temple, the Egyptian Museum, or anywhere ancient Egypt is on display — and watch it come to life.

WHAT AMUN DOES

INSTANT TRANSLATION
Scan hieroglyphs and receive accurate, database-verified translations in seconds. No Egyptology degree required.

ARTIFACT IDENTIFICATION
Point your camera at a statue, mask, or relief and instantly discover what it is, who made it, and the story behind it.

GUIDED AUDIO TOURS
Unlock interactive, narrated tours that walk you through the history of every artifact you find — turning any visit into a personal journey through ancient Egypt.

VERIFIED ACCURACY
Translations are cross-referenced against real archaeological records, including the Karnak Cachette collection, so what you're reading is grounded in genuine research, not guesswork.

BUILD YOUR COLLECTION
Every artifact and inscription you scan is saved to your personal Artifact Collection — your own growing archive of ancient discoveries.

WHO IT'S FOR

Tourists visiting Egyptian heritage sites, museum-goers anywhere in the world with Egyptian collections, students, Egyptology enthusiasts, and anyone who's ever wanted to read what the pharaohs actually wrote.

HOW IT WORKS

Open the camera, point it at hieroglyphs or an artifact, and Amun detects what you're looking at in real time. Tap to reveal a translation, identification, or full guided tour — then save it to your collection and keep exploring.

Ancient Egypt left behind thousands of years of messages, carved in stone, waiting to be read. Amun makes them accessible to everyone, instantly, wherever you're standing.
