Offgrid NYC

The local best friend you wish you had in New York: real videos of every spot, and a day-by-day guide built around the ones you love.

Offgrid NYC is the local best friend you wish you had in New York. Every spot in the app is a real video, filmed on location: the big icons from angles worth your time, and the corners only locals know.

SEE IT BEFORE YOU GO Scroll a feed of real videos. No stock photos, no guessing what a place looks like. From the Empire State Building to a Nolita backstreet, if it's in the app, someone stood there with a camera.

LIKE SPOTS, GET A GUIDE Save the places that catch your eye and the app turns them into a day-by-day guide. Stops are grouped by neighbourhood and ordered so you're not crossing the city twice, and the guide rebuilds itself whenever you add more.

WALK IT Open a day on the map and start walking. You get the walking route from stop to stop, and when a leg is too far on foot, the app tells you to take the subway instead.

KNOW WHY IT MATTERS Every spot comes with the story behind it: what happened there, what to look for, and what's worth your time nearby.

KEEP IT ORGANISED Build your own lists for coffee, rooftops, viewpoints or whatever you're planning. Set your travel dates and the guide fits your stay. If you happen to walk past somewhere you saved, the app can quietly let you know.
