Navigation with style.

Wayline is a more beautiful way to walk, drive, and discover the world. Cinematic 3D routes, calm voice guidance, curated places, and an AR beacon to guide you along the way.

Completely different experience.

Most navigation apps get you from A to B. Wayline makes the journey feel considered, with cinematic city views, calm guidance, and a map that feels designed for the way you actually move. Choose Day, Night, or let Auto follow the time of day.

AR is walk-only.

Voice

A voice that doesn’t yell.

Most apps yell every turn and every distance like they’re reading a manual at you. Wayline is intentional. It talks like a calm passenger-seat friend who only speaks when it actually matters.

Every other nav app

“In two hundred feet, turn right. Then, in three hundred feet, turn left.”

“Right just up here, then a left.”

AR Beacon

Walk toward the light.

Raise your phone and see exactly which way to walk. A sage column of light marks your destination, visible from blocks away, anchored in the real world the moment you point the camera.

Discovery

Find places without drowning in pins.

Wayline shows fewer places, better. Pick a mood: eat & drink, stay, culture, outdoors, shopping, or nightlife. Open rich place cards when something’s worth a stop.

Save the places that matter. They live in collections you can come back to.

AI Discovery

Ask like a human. Get where to go.

Type or tap the mic. Say what you actually want. “Cozy café to work from with plugs and fast wifi.” “Date-night Italian in SoHo, not too fancy.” Wayline parses your intent, weighs real reviews, and hands back five places with a real reason to pick each.

No more scrolling a hundred identical pins. No more “top 10” blog posts written six years ago. Just a knowing local answering the question you asked.

Natural language · Live voice input · Grounded in real reviews

Collections

The places you find, kept.

See something worth coming back to? Save it to a collection in one tap. Wayline keeps your discoveries organized: favourite cafés, weekend walks, the bar you keep meaning to try. No database to build.

Collections live across every view: AR, 3D, and the map. The places you save are the ones you actually return to.

Little touches

Quiet polish on every screen.

The small things you keep noticing. Weather you can trust, a compass that knows where the sun is, plans that fit your schedule, steps that count themselves, and the subway in real MTA colors.

Weather

Hourly, with intent.

Minute-by-minute rain, tonight's moon phase, the wind heading. Just enough to plan your walk.

Compass

The sun, where it actually is.

Real sun and moon positions plotted on a sky dome that knows your latitude, plus the path each one takes today.

Wayline departure time picker. Set an arrival time and Wayline calculates when you should leave.

Arrive by

Tell it when. It figures out leave.

Set the arrival time. Wayline back-solves the leave time so a 5 PM dinner doesn't start as a 4:53 sprint.

Steps

Live count, no setup.

Transit

The subway, in real colors.

Tap the home-screen pill to overlay every NYC subway line in its authentic MTA color. Stations labeled, route bullets where they belong.

Honest by design

Honest about what it knows.

Cities confuse every navigation app. Wayline simply tells you when the signal is precise, and when it isn’t.
