Copenhagen's best food, from the people who actually eat there. STAN is a community guide where locals share the restaurants, cafés, bakeries, bars and wine bars they love - no ads, no sponsored placements, just places worth your time. FOLLOW THE LOCALS Every place on STAN was added by a real person and reviewed by them. Follow the curators whose taste matches yours and see what they recommend, city by city. ONE FEED, NEARBY FIRST Open the app and swipe through places around you — photos and short videos of the food, a local's honest take, distance and walking time. Filter by coffee, bakery, wine or food. REVIEWS THAT SAY SOMETHING Rate atmosphere, service and quality with hearts. Add photos. Read what locals wrote, not star averages from strangers. THE MAP See every place around you, search by name or street, and check what's open right now with opening hours and a price indication. Sights and landmarks show alongside the food, so you can plan a day, not just a meal. YOUR TRAILS Save places into trails you name yourself — Date night, Breakfast & brunch, Weekend in Vesterbro. See how much of a trail you've completed, and open other people's trails to see where they've been. ADD A PLACE Know somewhere great? Add it with a photo and a review. Once it passes review it goes live on the map, credited to you. POINTS AND THE SCOREBOARD Earn points for reviews, photos and places you add, and climb the city scoreboard. SHARE Send a place to a friend and it opens straight in STAN. ## Pricing and in-app purchases Base price: Free. **One-time purchases** | Purchase | Price | Type | | --- | --- | --- | | Trayls Lifetime Unlock | $7.99 | one-time | ## Is STAN safe?

Rename lives in the same menu. • Made a new trail? Add places straight away: "Add spots" lists the city's places with a one-tap plus. • Instagram and TikTok on your profile: add your handles in Edit Profile and they show as tappable pills. • Friends scoreboard: every row opens the profile. • Map: the pin you tap stays under your thumb in the card row. • Shared place and trail links now open in a light page that matches the app. • Plus small fixes. ### 2.1.3 — 2026-10-04 STAN 2.1.3 - the map got smarter, and every place got a line. • Opening hours on nearly every place, with an "Open now" filter on the map. • Real photos for the city's sights on the map - parks, palaces, museums - with their names. • A fresh feed every time you open STAN: the closest places still lead, but the order mixes so you keep finding new ones. • Give your trails a face: add a cover photo to any trail you've made. Long-press it on your profile, or use the menu inside. • Shared a trail? Tap "by @name" to open the person behind it. • "Add" on a feed card now asks which trail, every time. • Map: brand-green clusters and pins, a blue "you are here", and a button to jump back to your location. • A one-line description on every place, on the feed card and the place page. • Tags you can trust: casual, cozy, trendy, date night, brunch, outdoor seating and more - tap one to see every place like it. • Add a place: if it isn't on Apple Maps, STAN now looks it up on Google Maps too. • Find any STAN user from the Friends search, not just people nearby. • Light look by default; dark is one tap away in Settings. • Plus fixes: smoother scrolling on the home feed, and places that have closed no longer show up. ### 2.1.1 — 2026-09-18 STAN 2.1.1 — cleaner, calmer, more local. • A calmer place page: the name on the photo, the facts in one list, ratings at a glance. • Six clear categories with their own icons: Restaurant, Café, Bakery, Bar, Wine bar, Cocktail bar. • Tags on places, and a tap on any tag shows every place like it on the map. • Save other people's trails to your profile — they get a heads-up when you do. • Activity: see who followed you, liked or replied to your review, or added your place to a trail, in the app and as pushes you can switch off. • Reviews in another language get a Translate link. • Report a place that has closed, straight from its page. • Light theme by default. Tap the tab you're on to get back to its start. • Faster photo uploads when you add a place, and a smarter feed that always leads with somewhere new nearby. ### 2.1.0 — 2026-09-08 STAN 2.1 — follow the locals, now with your own trails. • Trails you name yourself: "Date night", "Best coffee", "Weekend in Vesterbro".
