This service makes it easier for smokers to find a smoking area with other smokers by putting up a pin📍 in the smoking area! Released from Japan!🇯🇵
This is so interesting! Could the next step be to show how many people are currently smoking in that area? Or to attract people to a specific smoking spot for a 5-minute smoking chat?
I quit smoking about 10 years ago, but I understand how important it is to find a suitable place for smokers where they won’t be judged. This is a great idea! It’s really important for people to know where they can smoke and connect with others without feeling uncomfortable.
Japan’s strict public smoking rules and emphasis on social etiquette make a service like this genuinely useful. Smoking areas can be hard to find, especially since they’re designated at the city or even ward level and often hidden from plain sight. Surprised the government hasn’t built something like this already—so it’s great to see a community-driven solution stepping in to fill that gap.
