Toad helps you avoid street-sweeping tickets and tows, and stay ahead of every parking restriction on the streets you park on, including moving trucks, construction, and snow emergencies. Add the streets around you that you often park on, and Toad watches them for you. You get a reminder on your phone before street sweeping starts, so you can move your car in time instead of coming back to a ticket on the windshield (or a missing car). WHAT TOAD WATCHES FOR - Street sweeping schedules, with a reminder before each one - Moving-truck permits that block parking on your street - Construction permits and work zones - Snow emergencies, the moment your city declares one - City events and holiday suspensions that change the rules REMEMBER WHERE YOU PARKED Mark your spot with one tap. Toad remembers where you left your car and keeps an eye on restrictions there, even when you have walked blocks away. When it is time to head back to your car, Toad points you back to it. SEE IT ALL AT A GLANCE One screen shows everything coming up for where you are right now: sweeping, permits, construction, and snow restrictions. No digging through street signs or city websites. BUILT FOR YOUR CITY Toad covers Boston, Cambridge, Somerville, Chelsea, Everett, and Malden, with more on the way. Street sweeping reminders are available in every city. Moving-truck and construction permit alerts are live in Boston and Cambridge today, and expanding. Toad is free to use. Reminders run on your phone, so they work even when you are off the grid, and your watched streets stay private to you. Park smarter. Stay one step ahead of the tow truck.
Climber Map

Climber Map shows you the wall you're standing in front of. Crags are drawn where they actually are — outlines surveyed on site, with every route as a point on the rock. Zoom in and the names and grades appear. Tap a climb for photos with the line drawn on it, its grade and length, and how to walk in. WHAT YOU GET • Wall outlines and route locations surveyed in the field • Photos of the rock with the route line drawn on it • Approach notes, parking, and trails on the map • Grade, discipline, and length on every route • Search across every climb and crag that forgives typos • Filter by type and grade, with a live count of what matches • Bookmark routes so you can find them again • Log ascents and see how much traffic a route gets • Your own position, on the crag map BUILT FOR THE CLIFF Download a destination once and its map and route data live on your phone. No service at the trailhead is fine — the map still draws and search still works. Your bookmarks and logbook sync when you're back in signal. CURRENTLY COVERING Rumney, New Hampshire — more than 790 sport and trad routes across 50+ crags, from the Meadows to the Main Cliff. This is a young app with one destination surveyed so far, and more on the way. The routes in it are ours: measured on the ground, not copied out of another database. An account is required so your bookmarks and logbook follow you between devices. You can delete it, and everything attached to it, from inside the app.
