Karpo now adapts smoothly across iPhone Duo’s displays, with improved layouts, navigation, sharing, and wider place visuals on the large landscape screen. You can now use Shortcuts to call on Karpo in more ways—from quick prompts to questions about what’s on your screen. INTRODUCING VIBEPAD — BUILT WITH APPLE INTELLIGENCE VibePad is a Karpo exclusive that puts Apple Intelligence to work on your life in the city. Drop in a vibe — a feeling, a screenshot, a half-formed idea — and VibePad turns it into a real plan: places to go, things to do, moments worth leaving the house for, matched to your taste and your corner of New York. Because it works hand in hand with Apple Intelligence on your iPhone, it's fast, personal, and private by design. Just unboxed a new iPhone? This is what it was built for. “Two of us. Somewhere quiet. Around $50.” “Something fun, but low-key.” “Give me a reason to leave my apartment this Sunday.” ASK KARPO Know roughly what you want? Tell Karpo the way you’d tell a friend who knows the city. Add whatever matters—closer, quieter, more spontaneous—and Karpo shapes the ideas around the moment. DISCOVER Not sure what you want? Open Discover whenever you want inspiration. Explore ideas personalized around your taste and how you like to spend your time. Find: • A low-key night close to home • A date that feels thoughtful • A group plan people will actually agree on • A show, market, pop-up, or neighborhood to explore • A weekend with a little more shape Karpo has taste—and it learns yours. The more you save and explore, the less obvious and more personal the ideas become. FROM VIBE TO ACTION When something feels right, save it, share it with friends, or go straight to booking or tickets. The more you use Karpo, the more the city starts to feel like yours. Available now in New York City. Karpo diem.
