The Playground App vs GoPlayThere

**Your new Saturday morning routine** Check the weather before you leave the house. Filter by what actually matters — swings, splash pads, accessible equipment, surface type. Get directions. Save the ones your family loves. **The Playground Passport** Track every playground you visit. Earn badges. Watch your map fill up over the season. It turns "let's find a new one" into a family project your kids will actually want to keep going. **Found one we missed?** Submit a new playground right from the app. No login required. No hoops. Just add it. **Made by Bears with Apps** The Playground App is from Bears with Apps — we build family-first apps for discovering places together. **Features** • Find nearby playgrounds — "playgrounds near me" anywhere in the world • Almost 1 million playgrounds in the database • No account, no ads — open and explore instantly • Satellite and map views • Smart filters — amenities, sports, surface type, accessibility • Weather for playgrounds when available • One-tap directions • Favorites and visited history • Photo gallery — browse and upload • Share links and calendar invites • Help grow the database — add new playgrounds
