About

WC

Features

This app helps you find toilets near your current location or at a location of your choice. It provides information about the location and facilities of a toilet - for example, whether an accessible toilet is available, whether it can be opened with the Euro Key, and so on. Once you’ve found a suitable toilet, you can navigate directly there using the app’s compass feature or a map app of your choice. The database is constantly growing - thanks to voluntary contributions from our users and data imports from major providers. Currently, the focus is on Germany, but the database is also set to expand internationally. The app is also tailored to the needs of people with disabilities.
