How It Helps
When symptoms are unpredictable, restroom context matters.
IBS travel can mean weighing distance, opening hours, source confidence, privacy, and whether a stop is worth a small detour. RestMap puts those signals next to each place so the choice is less guesswork.
RestRoom IQ context
Knowing the options are there is often the point. RestRoom IQ scores let you check what is around before a meal or a meeting, so the decision is already made if you need it.
Source labels
Each signal shows its source and confidence, and reads Needs More Data when the evidence is thin - useful when you are deciding whether an unfamiliar place is worth relying on.
Planned restroom stops
Plan the stops before you leave. Journey IQ spaces options along the route at the interval you choose, so a long drive has a map instead of a hope.
Saved reliable stops
Keep the places that worked on hand, so a regular route, a favourite restaurant, or a repeat errand starts from something known.
Private by default

Source Context
Urgency-sensitive search needs honest data boundaries.
RestMap does not claim every location has complete restroom details. It separates stronger source signals from weaker clues so you can see when a result has useful context and when it still needs more data.
Data is sourced from OpenStreetMap, Refuge Restrooms, Open Charge Map, MapKit/Apple Places, RestMap brand profiles, and user-submitted ratings. Previously loaded locations and ratings can remain available without signal.
