A native iOS app in private preview

Every neighbourhood has a story

Turn a walk into a photo essay. Exchange it with one photographer, or share it with a community shaped by place and cameras.

Nº 01 — The idea

“A walk should feel like a small essay, not another post in a feed.”

Neighbourhoods starts with photographs, sequence and place. The pace is slower; the exchange is more personal.

01

Photo walks

Shape the walk into an essay.

A misty view across Sydney Harbour
Sydney · harbour light

A walk keeps the rhythm of where you went: the opening frame, the pauses, the detail you nearly missed.

Sequence

Order photographs until the walk reads the way it felt.

Writing

Add a note beneath each image, then close with the thought that stayed.

Context

Keep place, route and optional camera details beside the work.

From pavement to draft

Walk first.
Edit when you’re home.

Live Walk keeps a quiet map, your route and the moments you mark. End the walk and it moves into a private local draft—nothing publishes from the capture screen.

  1. 1CaptureTake an iPhone photo or mark a moment for another camera.
  2. 2Bring inAdd selected photos from the library, Files or an SD card.
  3. 3WriteChoose the sequence and add per-photo notes.

PhotoPals

One photographer.
One exchange at a time.

PhotoPals is for correspondence through pictures—not swiping, follower counts or a queue of faces.

Find someone through a place, an invitation, a camera or the kind of light you both notice. When you both accept, you can exchange walks and write privately.
