App summary

Finding things to do in new places can be tough. We got sick of searching for things to do and finding the same results each time. We wanted local travel knowledge, the walks, waterfalls, swimming holes and viewpoints that we didn’t know existed. But finding these, let alone getting any reliable information on them to plan a New Zealand road trip wasn't easy.

So Roady set out with a mission to give travellers easy access to local knowledge, no matter where they are.

After years of travelling around the country capturing content and learning about these places, we’ve built a travel app that includes our favourite spots and key information that we would have wanted in one place.

You can tick off experiences as you travel the country, earning badges and climbing the leaderboard along the way.

By ticking off an experience, you’ll create a record of your travels on your profile map. Upload a photo, leaving a rating and sharing a tip to provide your own local knowledge for others.

Instantly uninstalled when it decided to lock majority of the locations due to me not wanting to pay money for an app I don't know the value off, at least offer a trial or something so I can isee if it's gonna be worth it 🤦

Every time I tried using the app it kept showing try again message? Confused as to why this is happening to me .so, therefore my rating is 1 star.

Seems to be no way to make a route and have it just show what you like along route. Without paying money up front for something that seems pretty incomplete I'm not going to continue. Deleting.
