Rainy day date ideas in Singapore
Singapore’s afternoon storms ruin more dates than anything else. Everything here is indoors.
Datify’s planner also checks NEA’s forecast. If rain is due while you would be outside, it swaps the walk for somewhere under a roof and tells you it has.

Let Datify plan it
Pick a budget, a time and an area, and Datify builds the evening: where to eat, what to do after, how long it takes to get between them. If NEA forecasts rain while you would be outdoors, it keeps you under a roof.
