Wayline is a maps and navigation app for people who explore, not just commute. See every street you have walked, painted on your own private map. Pull up real subway and rail lines for major US cities in their true colors. Find a place just by describing it, like "a cozy date-night Italian nearby," and get a short list of real spots with a reason each one fits. WHAT MAKES WAYLINE DIFFERENT Your walking map, and only yours. Explored Area paints every street you have ever walked, built from your Apple Health history. It lives entirely on your device. Nothing is uploaded, ever. Real transit, real colors. Overlay subway and rail lines for 9 US metros, drawn in each system's actual colors, right on your map. Ask for places in plain words. Describe the mood you want and Wayline finds it, with ratings, price, and a one-line reason it fits. Save the good ones. Keep the places worth returning to in collections you name, so your next trip starts with your own shortlist. EVERYDAY NAVIGATION, DONE CALMLY Walk or drive, turn by turn. A voice that speaks only when it matters, so you are guided, not talked at the whole way. Pick a voice with personality. Eight voices, from a steady everyday guide to a few with real character. An AR beacon for the last stretch. Hold up your phone and follow a floating marker to the door when the final steps get confusing. Your city in 3D. A cinematic 3D map, with a clean 2D view a tap away. At a glance. A live compass with sun and moon, plus the weather for the walk ahead. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your walking history never leaves your phone. No account, no sign-up, no tracking you across other apps. Turn analytics off any time in one tap. Wayline is free.
