## What is Roam City?

Every walk lights up your city.

Roam City turns the streets you walk into warm light on your map. Head out, and the streets you pass glow behind you. The more you walk, the more of your city glows.

YOU DON'T START FROM AN EMPTY MAP
Connect Apple Health and the walks you have already recorded light up your map from day one. They count on your map, not on the leaderboard.

FIND SOMEWHERE WORTH WALKING TO
• Tap a landmark on the map for a walking route and a short description from Wikipedia.
• Open Nearby to see places close to you in areas you haven't explored yet.
• Follow the route line and watch new streets light up as you go.

A REASON TO GO OUT AGAIN
• See your week at a glance on the Explore screen.
• Collect a passport stamp for every new city and country you walk in.
• Earn XP and climb the weekly leaderboard, or check the monthly and all-time ranks.
• Save the places you want to remember with a photo and a note.
• Bright by day, glowing by night: the map follows light and dark mode.

PRIVACY
• No ads inside the app.
• If you allow tracking when iOS asks, we use the Meta SDK to measure which of our ads brought you to Roam City. If you don't, nothing is sent to Meta and the app works the same.
• Recording starts when you tap Start walking. Background exploration is optional and stays off until you turn it on.
• You can turn usage analytics off any time in Profile > Consent and privacy. In the EU, EEA, UK and Switzerland they stay off until you turn them on.
• Names on the leaderboard are shortened to a first name and an initial.
• Delete your account and its data from inside the app.

ROAM CITY PLUS
Walking, your glowing map, your first Apple Health import, landmarks, Nearby suggestions, passport stamps and the leaderboard are free. Roam City Plus is an optional subscription that adds:
• A richer map: heatmap, Memories map, the countries you have visited and your full passport.
• Route suggestions and automatic exploration in the background.
• Your progress by week, month and year, with streaks.
• Ongoing import of walks and workouts from Apple Health.
• More places in Nearby.

Roam City Plus is an auto-renewing subscription. The price and billing period are shown in the app before you buy. Payment is charged to your Apple ID account at confirmation of purchase. The subscription renews automatically unless it is cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel it anytime in Settings > your name > Subscriptions.

A free Roam City account keeps your map across devices.

Roam City 1.5.7

- Roam City Plus: the Plus screen now starts with its main benefit, background exploration: new streets light up while the app is closed.

### 1.5.6 — 2026-10-28

Roam City 1.5.6

- Roam City Plus: the subscription screen loads more reliably. If the App Store doesn't answer, you get a Retry button instead of a dead end.

- In the US, the monthly Plus plan is now offered next to the 3-month plan.

### 1.5.5 — 2026-10-21

Roam City 1.5.5

- District albums: every neighborhood has an album whose pages light up from the blocks you walk. Collect seals and share a card that shows only your counts.
- Friends (18+): connect by invite link, code or QR, and see the blocks your friends have lit on your map when they share with you. Sharing stays off until you choose.
- Private places: mark home, work or other spots that friends never see on your shared map.
- Nearby, redesigned: photos of the places around you, the full list for everyone, and a page for each place.
- Plans in your calendar: save a place or an event as a plan and tap Start walk when the day comes.
- Discovery %: see how much of your city and of each neighborhood you've explored.
- Weather on your map: a small chip shows the temperature and the sky, and the map's light follows the weather.
- Seasonal events start in late November with the Holiday Lights Walk (Nov 27 to Dec 27).
- Credits for map, place and photo data in Settings > Licenses, plus many small fixes.

Roam City 1.5.4

- Your first walk, guided: step outside for 2 minutes and watch your first block light up.
- Your first week: four short quests to get you walking. All free, and any length counts.
- Your next walk: after you save a walk, pick a time for the next one and get a gentle reminder. New blocks will be waiting.
- Apple Watch: start, pause and finish a walk from your wrist and see new blocks light up live while your iPhone records.
- Made for iPhone Duo: the map, your passport and your achievements open up across the big inner screen.
- Smarter background exploration: Roam City is better at telling a walk from a ride, so your map shows where you really walked.
- Siri & Shortcuts: say "Start a walk in Roam City", or start one from Control Center, the Lock Screen, the Action button or the Quick Start widget.
- Now in Spanish, German, French and Italian.
- Distances in miles in the US, kilometers everywhere else.

- Passport: collect a stamp for each new city and country you walk in.
