Your day
in Zürich, distilled
Zürich at a glance. Live lake and Limmat temperatures, weather shifts, and routing shaped around what matters to you – all brought together in one calm experience. Starting on iPhone, with Android coming later. Learn more about ARI.
Widgets
Little windows into the city.
Widgets keep the small things nearby: weather shifts, tram departures, lake temperatures, quiet routes home. So you can focus on exploring the city instead of checking five different apps.
Routing
Not just the fastest route. The right one.
Type a destination and ARI adapts the route to the moment. Move quickly, unwind alongside greenery, or choose a journey designed to help you feel more at ease along the way.
Fast
The direct route for when time matters. Fewer crossings, detours, and interruptions along the way.
Calm
A quieter route for when you want to slow down. More greenery, paths near water, and quieter streets.
Ease
Designed for a smoother and more comfortable journey. Routes are selected based on lighting, path quality, crossings, weather conditions, and overall peace of mind along the way.
See something along the way? Help improve routes for everyone by reporting obstacles, blocked paths, construction sites, and lighting issues.
Feedback
The app grows on the notes you send in.
ARI is still early, and many of the decisions inside the app are shaped directly by users – from which widgets stay, to what feels useful, distracting, or missing. One simple form inside the app. No newsletters. No feedback portal maze.

Questions
Some early questions, answered simple.

What is ARI exactly?
ARI stands for Adaptive Reckoning Intelligence. It's built around the idea that city information should adapt to context, feel understandable at a glance, and support people without overwhelming them.
Is it free? What about my data?
Free during the beta, and free for the core after. Your data lives on the phone — steps, routes, calendar, all on-device. The only outbound calls ARI makes are to the public weather grid and the live lake feed.
iOS only? When does Android land?
ARI launches on the App Store for iPhone first — same widgets, same Ask-ARI bar. A browser PWA follows so anything we can keep platform-agnostic stays one URL away, and a first-class Android build lands once the PWA settles.
Why Zürich first?
We live here, walk here, miss trams here, swim here. ARI starts in Zürich because the details matter; and local knowledge can't simply be translated from one city to another. Other cities will come later, once they feel equally understood.
Can I suggest a widget?
Yes. The Lab is where new widget ideas begin. Send yours in, let the community vote, and follow along as the strongest ideas make their way into ARI.
What's a Badi?
A Badi is a public swimming spot by the lake or river, or a public swimming pool. Most open in May, cost a few francs to enter, and become part of daily life in summer. ARI shows which ones are worth heading to today.
A quieter way to live in your city.
Launching on the App Store for iPhone, free, with new widgets shipping most weeks. Android lands once the PWA settles in.
