Disclaimer
TapNomad provides informational guidance about tap-water quality and public water-refill points, compiled from official sources such as national regulators and water utilities.
Not a guarantee
TapNomad is not a guarantee of water safety. Water quality can change at any time due to local incidents, maintenance, weather or infrastructure conditions that no data source reflects immediately. The information in the app and on this site:
- is provided “as is”, without warranty of any kind;
- may be incomplete, outdated or inaccurate despite our efforts;
- is not medical, health or safety advice; and
- never replaces local official guidance. If local authorities, signage or your host say the water is unsafe, or you are in doubt, do not drink it.
What a verdict means
Every verdict names its source, shows the date it was last verified and carries a confidence level, so you can judge it yourself. Where there is no data at all the app says so instead of giving a verdict. A verdict describes the public supply as officially reported. It cannot see the last metres of pipe: plumbing, storage tanks and local incidents can change what comes out of any particular tap. When in doubt, ask locally.
Where no data exists
Where no official city-level source is available, the app says so and shows a country-level estimate instead. An estimate is exactly that.
Walking directions
In-app walking directions follow OpenStreetMap, which volunteers keep and which can be wrong or out of date: a path may be closed, private or not there at all. In the countryside, where there is often no footpath between villages, a route can follow the shoulder of a road; routes are built to avoid motorways and roads closed to pedestrians. Watch the traffic, follow local rules and signs, and use your own judgement about whether a route is safe to walk.
