Dorple

Dorple is a participation platform that helps neighbourhoods shape their surroundings. Share ideas, mark meaningful places, document buildings, report improvements, and join local projects — so your voice is easy to hear. KEY FEATURES Share your ideas Propose project ideas around mobility, greenery, culture, heritage, and more. Neighbours can comment and like, so strong ideas become visible in your area. Mark meaningful places Document special locations — from meeting spots to cultural landmarks — and help others discover what makes your surroundings unique. Report improvements Point out places that need attention and suggest improvements. Work with your neighbourhood toward a stronger living environment. Document buildings Contribute to a shared map of your area by photographing and describing buildings and structures. Track your routes (traces) Record walking or cycling routes while Dorple is open. See where you’ve been, answer short questions about your trip, and discover patterns in your neighbourhood. Trace recording only works while the app stays in the foreground. Protect your privacy Set privacy zones so sensitive places are not included in your traces. Join challenges and questionnaires Take part in neighbourhood challenges and answer questionnaires from projects you’re involved in. Stay up to date with events See upcoming neighbourhood events, RSVP, and see who else is coming. Connect with your neighbourhood Follow the feed, respond to neighbours’ contributions, and work together on shared goals. Invite others via link or QR code. Multilingual Available in Dutch, German, French, and English. Dark mode Comfortable use in low light, with full dark mode support.
