The Guide Liverpool has launched a new app which helps you keep it local!

We’ve launched a brand-new app to make it even easier for you to access news and info from your favourite city, at the touch of a button.

The app is available to download now, giving you access to hundreds of articles and videos about everything that matters – and more – in the city.

And the app is linked to a reward scheme that will bring bonuses and benefits not just to its people, but to businesses and business-owners in and across Liverpool City Region.

The Guide Liverpool’s Jay Hynd, says: “Everyone wants to access things easily, and with the way the world is moving apps are really prominent in people’s lives, so it was hugely important for us to get one up and running.

“We have our website, and we have our social channels, and people rely on us for keeping them up to date on what’s going on. The new app brings everything together in one place, making it easier than ever to do that.”

Jay adds: “This is another way, another platform, for us to keep shouting about Liverpool in a positive way; whether someone wants to know what’s going on at the weekend, where there’s a good restaurant to eat in, or they just want a good news story from the city.

“People can sit and watch the videos on their phone, or digest the latest news, and get notifications whenever there’s an update, in the easiest way possible.”

“The essence of The Guide Liverpool has always been in that third and vital word,” says Jay. “Liverpool. As the media landscape has changed and become more and more national, we have stayed hyper-local.

“I love Liverpool, I love everything about it, and that love has only grown over the last seven years, as we’ve gone behind the scenes of the city and its stories, the incredible events and attractions, businesses and, of course, its people.

“We have always aimed to be a hub for Liverpool City Region and what’s important to it and, with this new app, doing what we do will be easier and better, for us and for those who look to us.”

As well as information, the free-to-download app will have calendar functions and a host of extra features, one of which is Peepl rewards.

App users will be rewarded, for example, for watching videos with tokens which they can then spend at local businesses across Liverpool City Region.

It means more value for readers and viewers, and means more money is kept within the local economy to ensure that it prospers, a factor more important than ever as it comes back from the pandemic and faces the new cost-of-living crisis.

“We do a lot to support local businesses, and the rewards and the app is a big part of that.”

Jay adds: “We just want to get people to download the app and give it a go. It’s really new, it’s really different, and we think they’ll love using it, especially as we build up to Eurovision, arguably the biggest party the city will ever host”
