About this app

OnFoot – Walk safer, especially alone

OnFoot is a walking navigation app designed for pedestrians who want to feel safer on foot – whether you're walking home at night, exploring a new city, or heading somewhere unfamiliar alone.

Built with women walking alone in mind, but useful for everyone: tourists, expats, commuters, students, and anyone who prefers to explore on foot without worrying about the route.

Why OnFoot is different

Unlike car-first navigation apps that just show you the shortest line on a map, OnFoot is built specifically for walking. It gives you clear pedestrian directions, real-time route tracking, and community safety reports along the way – so you always know where you are, how far you have left, and what other walkers have flagged nearby.

Built for people who walk

Most navigation apps were built for cars first and adapted for walking later. That's why they send you down highways, ignore pedestrian shortcuts, and stop guiding you the moment you leave your car. OnFoot flips that: walking is the priority, not an afterthought. Every feature is designed around the reality of moving on foot – where you actually feel safe, where you can stop, where the community says to pay attention.

A companion, not just a map

Traditional maps show you a line and go quiet. OnFoot is designed to stay with you throughout the walk – tracking your progress, keeping you oriented, and connecting you to what other walkers have shared about the area. Whether you're a woman walking home alone, a tourist in a new city, or an expat learning a new neighborhood, OnFoot walks with you.

Safer walking for tourists, expats, commuters and locals

OnFoot works anywhere in the world. Whether you're in Lisbon, Amsterdam, Porto, Rotterdam, Paris, or your own hometown, the app helps you move on foot with more confidence. Especially useful when walking alone, at night, or in areas you don't know well.

Privacy first

OnFoot doesn't require a login. You don't need to create an account, share your identity, or hand over your data to use it. Walk with peace of mind – yours, and your data's.

Free to use

OnFoot is free to download and use. No subscription required for core walking navigation features.

Walk smarter. Walk safer. Walk with OnFoot.
