Why families love Roam

Every parent need this app

Love a good coffee but what I love more good coffee with play area, been able to look up cafe, restaurants with great play area for children the best, find all the best play grounds and list of event on in the weekend to keep us busy and happy.
Game changer

I use this app on the reg to find new places to take my preschooler. I've lived in Auckland my whole life but have discovered so many new places from the app. So reasonable too. It's the best money I spend all month.
Obsessed - we use it at least once a week!

It's so much fun looking for new playgrounds to check out when we are in different parts of town/ Love adding to my Favourites List and getting ideas for places to visit. We have explored so many new spots since downloading ROAM.
Love love LOVE the app!

It's really helped me to get out and about with 2 under 2. Being outside does wonders for my mental health, but it was hard to know where I'd be ok to go with a double buggy. Being able to find fenced playgrounds has been a life saver, I don't have to worry about being split in two directions. It's also given us great weekend plans as a family. We found our new favourite breakfast spot and are slowly ticking off new playgrounds. Thank you SO much for creating it!
Such a great app

So easy to navigate and filter. Love that l'e got a "where to go" guide on my phone that has places | know my kids will love. Plus the discount codes are great too. Free coffee at an indoor playground, once a month means the app pays for itself and then some :)
Tried a new spot

Tried a new spot on our way to Hamilton and we never would have realized there was such a great cafe and playground if it wasn't for roam! Thank you for all your mahi, such a fab thing and I use it constantly!
This app is one of the best friends a parent can have!!

This app is one of the best friends a parent can have!! We all run out of ideas and places to go with kids- well look no further! The reviews are accurate, informative & just helps so much with planning weekend/holiday activities. Renate seems so down to earth and simply lovely! And works her fingers to the bone to bring an excellent app at a VERY low cost. This app is 100% worth it! Looking forward to seeing more pics added to places
Fantastic app

Any time I go somewhere I'm unfamiliar with I jump on and find us a great place to stop and play, it really takes the stress out of planning the day and having to Google or scour maps to find a good spot. I use this app all the time, and even after 5 kids I'm constantly finding great new places to check out.
App for all families!

It automatically takes away the stress of trying to finding a family friendly activity/cafe/event. The events section is super helpful. Most weekends, my family and I attend one of the events listed on the app. It has been such a great way to explore Auckland more, and get out and about. My little boy has loved all of the different playgrounds and walks we have been to as well. Highly recommend this app! Such a small cost for value added to family life.
