Why locals like it

Hidden gems

A humming sound artwork rising from a subway grate, a quiet 1895 church tucked between theatres, a tiny boxing-themed bar. Easy to miss, worth a detour.

Where locals eat

A fast counter taqueria, a Cuban lunch counter, a decades-old boxing bar. Tourist favourites and local favourites are marked differently, so you can pick the vibe.

Tourist magnet index

Every spot has a "hidden gem to tourist magnet" meter, a local tip, and how long a visit really takes. Plan the afternoon in minutes.

Directions from what you can see

No GPS needed

Lost between skyscrapers? Type the shop, hotel or street sign in front of you. Street signs always show a corner, so the map always knows.

Turn by turn, by sight

Left and right as you walk, minutes and distance, plus landmarks to look for. Footprints trace the route on the map.

Works offline

Load it once on Wi-Fi and it keeps working underground, in crowds and when the signal drops.

Questions

What does the free demo include?

The full map, plus 15 spots with their stories and directions: the big sights, a couple of gems, and the subway and bus hubs. The rest of the pins are visible but locked.

What area does it cover?

Times Square only: W 41st to W 49th Street, between 8th and 6th Avenue. It is deliberately focused. Rockefeller Center and the rest of Midtown are not on this map.

Does it work offline?

Yes. After the first load the map and your pass are saved on your phone. GPS still works offline too, if you choose "Use my location".

I got a new phone or cleared my browser. Can I get my pass back?

Yes. Tap any locked pin, choose "I already have a pass" and enter the email you used at checkout.

Is it accurate?

Streets and buildings come from OpenStreetMap. Opening hours, prices and what is on change often, so the spots say to check before you go.
