Ability Heroes mobile app

About the app

Mobile apps have transformed the way we plan and navigate our journeys, with over 70% of travellers relying on them for directions, transport, and bookings .

But for millions of Australians with disabilities, seniors, and families with young children, one crucial detail is often missing – clear, reliable accessibility information.

Without knowing whether a place has ramps, accessible toilets, or suitable seating, a simple outing can become stressful or even impossible, leading to isolation, anxiety, and a reduced sense of independence.

The Ability Heroes app is designed to change that.

By crowdsourcing real-time insights, it provides up-to-date details on accessible venues, essential facilities, and potential barriers, so users can plan with confidence.

Whether you’re looking for an accessible cafe, a safe transport route, or simply want to contribute your own experiences, this app is a practical tool for building a more inclusive community.

With your support, we can ensure that no one is left out of their own city – not just physically, but socially and emotionally too.

As of February 2025, we have reached an exciting point in our journey, with the mobile app about to move into the development stage. This is all thanks to the funding we have so far and the incredible team working behind the scenes.

We will continue to provide updates on how the development process is going. For now, please take a read of how you can support us on the next stage, when we officially go live.
