You never think about it until it is too late! After college I would come into NYC to job hunt all day long, never thinking that I would need bathroom breaks during the day, and never knowing where to find a free bathroom! I couldn’t afford to go into a restaurant and order a meal every time I had to go potty, and I knew I could always go into a department store to take a potty break, but there were none of those in the olden days down on Wall Street when I was looking for work!
Talk about awkward times! And the later in life we had a kid, and we loved to explore the country as a family! We loved going to Boston, San Francisco, and Washington, D.C. together! Did I mention we were traveling with a kid? Do you have a kid? If you do, then you know that they rarely give you more than a five minute warning when it is time to go to the bathroom!
Today, thanks to the genius of Charmin, there is an app that shows you where the nearest clean bathroom is, and they have ratings! When they said there was an app for everything, they meant it!
The new SitorSquat App from Charmin is genius, and a huge help to everyone who gets stuck in the street when that funny feeling comes over them! When I have to go, I have to go now!
We always travel at the end of the Summer, we are always out of town for Labor Day, we love our last minute breaks before school starts. It was Labor Day a few years ago when we were riding the trolley cars that our son told us he had to go! It was a few years ago when we were walking along the Mall in Washington, D. C. when our son said he had to go! And then there was that time in Boston, when we had just left a restaurant where we had a delicious meal, and five minutes later, the kid had to go! Of course it was my fault for not making him go before we left the restaurant. Where was the SitorSquat App then!!
The Charmin’s SitOrSquat app is hugely helpful, especially when traveling to a new city:
-You can find public restrooms when you are going to travel (and now select countries are included, not just the U.S.)
-Install the SitOrSquat app`to search, view, rate, and add public restrooms to help you, your family and others Enjoy the Go, when you are on the go.
-The SitOrSquat app puts clean public toilet locations right on your phone! Clean locations have a green “Sit” rating. Less desirable ones have a red “Squat.”
-A clean nearby public bathroom can be hard to find. And we all know that not all restrooms are created equal, now you can check for a green for go or red for be warned!
-You can rate and review a bathroom, and share your experiences to help others. You can even add a picture. What a great way to help your fellow travelers!

What a great app to have no matter where you are! With a family of five someone is always looking for a bathroom!! Takes up SO much time!!
What an amazing app! Love all the features! I can’t wait to share it with all my friends! Thank you so much!
Ok, this is just plain BRILLIANT! My youngest literally waits until he’s about to pee his pants before he says he has to go, so that leaves us scrambling for a bathroom more often than I’d like! Downloading NOW!!!!!
This is the best thing ever! I’ve never had the GIF moment you put in this post, but I have had moments where I was like, “Where is the bathroom – right now?!” This is especially awesome for travel. Love it!
This is definitely one of the most useful apps I have heard about. When we go into Manhattan we always need to use facilities and now we know where they will be, so helpful, thanks.
This is such a cool app idea! It’s definitely going to be great when you’re traveling.
Oh! I need this app. With the baby we never know when we are going to need a bathroom stat and you never know how clean they will be.
I’ve had this app on my phone for a year now and can’t live without it. Those of us who suffer from IBD always need to be aware of where the nearest restroom is located and this app has saved me quite a few times.
A fabulous idea for an app, especially when potty training kids. I had twins and it was sure interesting figuring out where bathrooms were at the right time.
Oh, wow! This is so convenient especially if you’re going to be out for the day or if you’re in a different city! I think it’s really going to be useful!
Oh wow. There really IS an app for everything. However, this is one app that I will download the soonest. It is important that we know where the nearest toilet is when we have to go. I love that this app even shows ratings. That’s nice to know. We can have a clue of whether or not the toilet is clean.
This would be a great app for frequent travelers and for those whose jobs require them to be on the road . I love that it provides user ratings. At least it gives us an idea of what to expect when we get to the nearest toilet.
Now THAT’S one handy app. With a ton of kids, you know a bathroom is needed nonstop.
LOL, that is one handy app. I can think of many occasions on vacation where we had to go searching for toilets!
