Detour Waitlist

Coming soon to iPhone.

A daily invitation to do something new, together.

Get a daily detour. Do it, snap one photo, see what your friends did with theirs. Free.

You walk past a hundred places you’ve never tried. You just stopped seeing them. Detour gives you one each day, and a reason your friends go too.

~~Every day on autopilot~~One day that’s different.

Same routine. One small detour.

~~Weeks you can’t remember~~Days worth remembering.

New moments are the ones your brain keeps.

~~An endless feed~~One thing to do.

Then a short feed of your friends. That’s it.

~~Watching other people live~~Living your own day.

And seeing what your friends did with theirs.

How it works.

It’s time for a detour.

Every day, everyone gets the same small invitation. Two ideas. Pick one. Do it whenever it suits you.

Go. Snap one photo.

No filters. No timer. No streak to protect. Just you, somewhere new, and one photo of what you found.

See what your friends did.

Not what they’re pretending to do. What they actually did today. Then go do theirs too.

One small yes. Watch what it opens.

Tap one. See what a yes opens.

Every day on repeat feels safe. One different day is how everything changes.

Why it works. Small changes. Real effects.

New places. Better mood.

People feel happier on days they go somewhere new.

New days feel longer.

Routine weeks blur together. New ones stick.

Small beats big.

A different street today beats a plan you never start.

Your map stays yours. Friends see your photo. Never where you were.

Only friends you add see your posts.
No messages from strangers.
Report and block, any time.

Good to know.

Is it free?

Yes. Always.

Is it another app to scroll?

No. One detour a day and a short feed of friends. The point is to get you out.

What if I miss a day?

Nothing happens. No streaks, no guilt.

When does it launch?

We’re testing with small groups now. Join and you’ll hear first.
