A little nudge toward real life

Less doomscrolling, more doing. SideQuest turns the places around you into a game worth playing.

Real-world quests

Quests are rooted in actual nearby venues—pulled from Apple Maps—so every adventure points you at a real place you can go.

Anywhere you are

Type any city to explore, or tap Use My Location to generate quests around you right now. Pro

Build your Lore Book

Mark a quest complete on the honor system and add an optional photo, note, and 1–5★ rating. Each becomes a Lore Card you can revisit.

XP, levels & streaks

Every completed quest earns XP and levels you up, while daily streaks keep the momentum going.

Five flavors of quest

Outdoor, Social, Food, Creative, and Chaos—filter for the kind of adventure you're in the mood for.

Private by design

No account, no sign-in. Your quests, photos, and lore stay on your device—not on our servers.
