About this app

b98 shows you quickly and location-based what's happening in your area. The app gathers freely available information and alerts from your region in one central location. Simply select the location that interests you – so you only see what's truly relevant to you.

Whether it's local weather warnings, flood levels, current traffic updates, or disaster reports – b98 clearly summarizes public information for you, ensuring you're always well-informed.

Supplement the data with local community updates:

Share useful everyday information directly from your neighborhood with your fellow citizens – such as construction sites, road closures, or other local events in your district. These community posts are for neighborhood exchange. They are purely private user content and never replace official warnings in an emergency.
