Draw once and today's direction and destination light up. Then just walk. Every street you cover is drawn onto your map, and the new ones add up. No account, no ads.
Walk somewhere new.
MichiAruki is a walking concierge that helps you find streets you have not walked yet.
On days when you cannot decide where to go, one draw a day picks a direction for you.
- One direction a day
Draw, and a direction you have not walked lights up, together with a small destination for today.
Each draw comes with an unfamiliarity rating on a five-point scale and a theme of the day.
- Or choose the destination yourself
Instead of drawing, you can pick a destination from the map or by searching. You can also start from somewhere other than your current location.
Choose how far you feel like walking - nearby, normal or farther - and the destination is picked to match.
- Walk, and discover
Record your walks with GPS.
Streets you have never taken, and the new distance you have covered, come into view as you go.
- The map you have walked
The streets you walk are painted onto the map, little by little.
The parts of your own neighbourhood that are still blank start to show.
- Keep the places you liked
Save the places you find on foot. Group them into areas and categories, and they become landmarks for your next walk.
- Your records stay on your device
Walks, locations and saved spots are all stored on your device. We never send them to our servers.
Only when you look for a destination does the app ask Apple Maps about your surroundings. Which features you use is sent as anonymous statistics, to help improve the app.
- Keep going with the screen off
While a walk is being recorded, location use continues even when the screen is off.
