## What is Oika?

Oika – Haptic Wayfinding is an Apple Watch app that helps blind and visually impaired individuals navigate open outdoor spaces with greater independence.

In places like beaches, parks, or fields where there are no clear landmarks, Oika allows users to set a safe starting point with a simple gesture. When ready to return, the app provides discreet haptic feedback and directional audio cues, guiding them back safely without the need for visual interaction.

Built natively for Apple Watch, Oika is optimized for non-visual use, offering a seamless, intuitive experience through touch and sound. GPS is used to provide real-time location tracking, ensuring accurate guidance even in wide or unstructured areas.

Explore freely. Return confidently. All from your wrist.
