NoGo
See at a glance where things are tense right now — reported by people on the ground, in seconds and without an account.
NoGo shows you calmly and factually what is being reported in your neighbourhood right now. No sign-up, and nobody tracking where you are.

What NoGo does
No social network, no news feed. A map, a reporting flow, local alerts and a help section.
The map
Areas instead of pins
Instead of individual pins you see shaded areas. Yellow, orange and red show how strongly recent reports cluster in one place. One look is enough to get a feel for a street or a square before you head out.
- Yellow, orange and red by frequency, severity and how recent a report is
- Reports are grouped into equally sized cells — never a single dot outside someone’s front door
- Default view: the last 24 hours
- Tap an area and you see the reports behind it, with category and time
Reporting
Three steps and it is on the map
Confirm the location, pick a category, add details, done. For persistent locations you also draw the affected area or just drop a pin. There are deliberately no photos, no free text and no descriptions of people. NoGo is meant to help you read places, not to pillory people.
- Thirteen categories — from pickpocketing and harassment to dark underpasses
- Optional detail chips instead of a free-text field
- No photos, no names, no descriptions of people
Recency
Reports fade on their own
Acute reports start losing weight within a few hours and disappear from the map again. If several people confirm the same observation, it stays visible longer.
- Acute reports fade within a few hours, persistent locations after around 30 days
- Confirmations by others extend visibility
- The result is a current picture instead of a permanent label for a whole neighbourhood
Alerts
Alerts on your terms
You decide which categories you want to be notified about and how wide your warning radius is. Whether you enter a reported zone is checked locally on your device — for new reports near you, our server sends the notification.
- Warning radius anywhere from 500 metres to 5 kilometres
- Switched on and off per category
- For that, the server only knows your location coarsened to about 100 metres — never your exact position
Help
The numbers that matter, without searching
The emergency number for the country you are actually in, the nearest police station, the nearest hospital and safe places nearby.
- Country-specific emergency number instead of a fixed 112
- Police, hospitals and safe places in the area
- This section is always free and always free of ads
Privacy by default
No account, no email address, no registration. Your reports are tied to an anonymous device identifier that you can delete at any time, together with all your data, from the settings.
- No account, no email address, no password.
- No free text and no photos — there simply is no field for it.
- Your location is not logged on our servers.
- Zone alerts are worked out on your device; for push about new reports the server only knows your location coarsened to about 100 metres — with no history.
- All of your data can be deleted by you at any time, right in the app.
- Reports are deleted after 90 days at the latest, except permanently confirmed locations.
- Servers in Germany (Frankfurt am Main).
Important
NoGo is an information tool and cannot guarantee safety. It is not an emergency service and does not replace the authorities. If you are in acute danger, call 110 or 112 (in Germany). Reports come from users and are not officially verified.
Free to use, optional to support
All safety features are free and the app is fully usable without a subscription. Without one, a small banner on the map covers running costs — the reporting, help and settings areas never show ads.
Ad-free
€2.99 / month or €19.99 / year
No more advertising.
Supporter
€5.99 / month or €49.99 / year
Ad-free plus voluntary support for further development.
Subscriptions run through the App Store or Google Play and can be cancelled there at any time.
Coming to the stores soon
NoGo is coming soon for iPhone and Android — in twelve languages.
