Waymap

Waymap provides the world’s only navigation app that guides you both indoors and outdoors. Our app is accurate up to 1m (and 10 degrees heading), with no external signals required.

With our app on your phone, you can explore the city, catch your bus, or go right to the aisle you want at the store. 

Waymap is a high-technology business that was founded to address the navigation needs of visually impaired persons. Since then, however, we have expanded our vision to provide the world's most accurate and inclusive navigation app, driven by cutting-edge technology.

Installed across a city’s transport network, streets and major buildings, our app gives step-by-step guidance as soon as you step out your door. It works anywhere we have a map.

We were delighted that our Tom Pey was invited to speak at the National Convention for the blind, hosted by the NFB over in Orlando, Florida last weekend. 

⭐️Tom spoke on a panel about the benefit Waymap’s accessible technology will bring to the lives of thousands of visually impaired users: a navigational solution which you can put in your pocket; which is attuned to bus and train arrival times; which is hands-free and learns the way you walk. Which works indoors, outdoors and even deep underground. 

It was fantastic to hear the enthusiasm of the crowd and the excitement amongst the blind and visually impaired communities for a navigation app which meets their needs, encourages new exploration, and really listens to the wishes of the communities it serves. 

⭐️Our thanks go to the National Federation of the Blind  for hosting such an informative, forward-thinking event. Here’s to a future where everyone will be empowered to use even the most complex of transit systems with independence and ease! ✨

Since 2023, we have rolled out Waymap-SG, a free audio-based wayfinding app that aims to help visually impaired passengers navigate bus interchanges and MRT stations safely and independently.
 
The first-of-its-kind in the Asia-Pacific, the app stands out with its unique approach of utilising the phone's sensors to calibrate to the user's walking gait and speed. Moreover, users can opt for a step-free (barrier-free) mode for added safety, avoiding steps and escalators. The app also operates without the need for GPS, Wi-Fi or Bluetooth signals, so it can easily be used both indoors and outdoors. Starting from mid-July, users can also check out bus arrival timings through the app!
 
Waymap-SG is currently being piloted at Tampines Bus Interchange and Downtown Line Tampines MRT Station, and is free to download from the App Store and Google Play.
 
We remain committed to making public transport and community spaces more inclusive and accessible. With Waymap-SG, we look forward to empowering our visually impaired passengers to travel confidently on buses and trains.

London's Waymap has recently secured £7M in funding to further their development of a cutting-edge navigation app. 

This app stands out for its unique capability to provide accurate navigation indoors, outdoors, and even underground, independent of traditional GPS systems. Utilizing a revolutionary algorithm, SmartStep, it leverages the smartphone's built-in sensors to offer step-by-step guidance with up to one-meter accuracy. 

This advancement not only aims to dramatically improve the mobility of visually impaired individuals but also holds promise for enhancing the navigation experience for all users. 

Waymap's innovative approach and the recent investment led by the TELUS Pollinator Fund for Good mark a significant milestone in making cities more accessible and navigable for everyone.
