Context
- Public-facing city guide app delivered for Stuttgart visitors and newcomers
- Officially presented by Stuttgart-Marketing GmbH, the tourism partner of the state capital Stuttgart
- Combines destination discovery, city orientation, event planning, and practical visitor information in one mobile product
City information becomes useful when it helps with the visit itself: where you are, what is nearby, what is happening, and what to do next. The Stuttgart Tourist Guide brings orientation, planning, discovery, and current information into one official mobile product.
Core differentiator
The app works as an official digital front door to a visit, connecting the information people otherwise have to collect from several places.
- It brings city highlights, map-based orientation, tours, infrastructure information, and events into one curated experience
- It supports practical planning through saved favorites, filtered event views, and location-based discovery
- It stays useful across different use cases including day trips, longer stays, and people who are new in the city
The value comes from making official city information coherent, accessible, and useful in the moment.
What the product delivers
- Integrated digital city map for sights, museums, restaurants, and nearby points of interest
- Watchlist functionality for personal trip planning
- Curated walks, tours, and neighborhood-based discovery
- Event overview with date-based filtering
- Practical information such as infrastructure, opening hours, and Wi-Fi hotspots
- Optional push reminders and current information updates
- Multilingual app experience
Content and operating model
The public product covers a broad set of needs, while the content team keeps practical control over daily updates.
- The live product spans attractions, restaurants, events, tours, and infrastructure information
- The app was implemented as a modular Flutter application and connected to a CMS for flexible management of content and menu structures
- Editorial teams can adapt content, categories, and navigation without rebuilding the app each time
The app can remain stable as a product while editorial teams update content, categories, and navigation day to day.
