The Sunderland App

The new Sunderland App offers a window into activity across Sunderland, enabling residents and visitors to be fully connected in our smart city.

To date, we’ve rolled out Phase 1 of the brand-new Sunderland App: a free resource with everything residents and visitors need to know about what’s going on in Sunderland, in one place. Through the new citywide app, we consolidate information on events, sightseeing, transport, and share exclusive discounts, keeping residents and visitors alike up to date on the city.

The Sunderland App will help increase community engagement and provide a platform for local businesses to promote their offerings; thereby stimulating economic growth. Up-to-date travel and access information on the app will ease the experience of people travelling around the city. The app may also be used in future to enhance public safety through alerts on weather, traffic, or public incidents. During the soft launch period from June 2024 to August 2024, the app was downloaded by 490 users. As of December 1st 2024, the app has been downloaded by over 4000 users.

Further details on the Sunderland App can be found on our Innovation Challenges page.
