I don't understand why iPod Touch 4G wouldn't be supported. It's just like the iPhone 4 but without the antenna. I hope it is brought to iPod Touch 4G soon. It looks like a beautiful app and it's disheartening not to have any part in it.

Hi Joe,

The reason Layar can't run on iPod Touch 4 is because it doesn't have GPS, which makes a huge difference in accuracy from a wi-fi based location service. Unfortunately we've found the user experience to suffer significantly as a result of this, which is why we can't offer it on the wi-fi only iPad2 either.

Not sure what kind of  mobile phone you have, but Layar is also available on Android devices.
