Ari is your personal city companion for Zürich, a quiet guide that brings together the information that actually shapes your day in the city. Made by people who live here, work here, and know the city. We build Ari openly – not once everything is finished, but together with you. WHAT THIS VERSION BRINGS • Badi Widget: Which Badi is open today, how warm is the water • Weather: Zürich weather and UV index in a form that works in everyday life • What to Wear: Temperature, rain, UV and wind at a glance, combined with an outfit recommendation • Drinking Fountains: 980 public drinking fountains in Zürich, sorted by distance from your location • Queer Zürich: Queer events, bars and community spaces, all year round YOUR WIDGETS, YOUR CHOICE You decide which widgets you see. Put together Ari the way your day looks – only the information you actually need, in the order that makes sense for you. ROUTING THAT ADAPTS TO YOU Three route options, depending on what you need: • Fast: The most direct route when time is tight. Fewer crossings, fewer detours. • Calm: More green, closer to water, quieter streets. For those who'd rather walk a few minutes longer if the route feels better. • Safe: A route that feels more comfortable – especially at night. Better lighting, busier streets, fewer parks. MADE IN ZÜRICH, BUILT ON TRUST Ari is developed in Zürich by LiveMap AG. We live here, we use the app ourselves every day. Ari runs on open-source models and is hosted exclusively by Swiss partners. Your data stays where you are.
