Found is the New Zealand discovery app that makes the call for you. Tell it who you've got and how far you'll go, and it hands back one brilliant idea, not a hundred open tabs.
Free to download · For families, couples, locals & visitors
Most apps hand you a wall of options and call it help. Found does the opposite. A few quick taps (or it quietly learns), then it commits to one recommendation worth saying yes to.
Found tailors the answer to who's actually coming along, and whether you live here or you're just visiting.
Age-appropriate outings that match the kids' ages, the weather, and how much energy you've actually got.
A day trip planned end to end: somewhere new, sequenced sensibly, without the back-and-forth.
Maximise every hour of the trip. Real itineraries from real places, not a guidebook from 2014.
Fresh weekend ideas in your own backyard: the spots you keep meaning to try and never quite get to.
Every feature answers one question: can the app just make the call, instead of handing you more homework?
Three quick taps (the kids' ages, your energy 1–5, how far you'll drive) and Found surfaces a single curated outing, tuned to the weather and the time of day. No browsing, no filtering, no decision fatigue. Just somewhere good to be.
Type or talk: "Somewhere free and indoors for a 2-year-old near Takapuna." Found does the rest, faster than tapping through filters one-handed with a baby on your hip.
"Three hours in Mt Eden with a 4-year-old and a baby." Found builds a little itinerary from real places, sequenced in an order that actually flows.
With your okay, Found quietly learns your patterns: you always head out Saturday mornings, you favour indoors in winter, you've saved twelve playgrounds. Then it nudges you first. Friday night: "Here's what we'd do tomorrow."
Rain coming? It pushes indoor picks the night before. School holidays approaching? Holiday programmes surface. A new spot opens near your patch? You'll be the first to know.
Tap how the day feels: toddler meltdown incoming, need a coffee, burning energy, don't want to be home alone. Found maps the mood straight to the place. No typing.
Three small moments between "I don't know what to do today" and being out the door.
Who's with you, how much energy you've got, how far you'll travel. Or let Found remember it for you and skip ahead.
Found weighs the weather, the time, your people and your patterns, then commits to one outing, with a reason it picked it.
Tap through for directions, save it for later, or ask for something else. The hard part, deciding, is already done.
From a Northland beach day to a rainy Wellington afternoon, Found knows the places, the seasons, and the school holidays. Local at heart, handy for every visitor.
Your next great New Zealand day out is one tap away, and it's already decided.
