Kyiv Digital launched in 2021 as a municipal super-app for parking payments, transport tickets and travel-card top-ups. After Russia's 2022 invasion the city rebuilt it into civil-resilience infrastructure: city air raid alerts, shelter, warming-point and power-outage maps, and strike-damage reporting. The app now bundles 51 services and keeps growing in wartime — an appointment service for the city's administrative service centres arrived in February 2026 and a council-transparency service, 'My Deputy', in May 2026.

📊 Impact

3.3 million users by early 2025 (about 600,000 added in 2024) and 270 million public-transport validations in 2024, against a city population of roughly 2.8 million — the city administration's own figures.

🎓 Lesson

A pre-war municipal services app with an existing user base became critical wartime safety infrastructure by layering alerts and shelter maps onto everyday city services.
