1. Our purpose
When the Life App ended service on 1 August 2026, people who relied on a single place to look up everyday travel and local information had to adapt to several separate apps. Live168 was created to make those everyday lookups simpler.
You can open Live168 in a browser or add it to your home screen as a progressive web app (PWA), without mandatory registration. The service brings frequently needed transport and everyday information together in a clear, mobile-friendly interface.
- Easy access on phones, tablets and computers without a required download.
- Respect for privacy: no mandatory account, no personal travel-history database and no sale of personal data.
- A lightweight experience using shared cloud caching to reduce repeated requests and data use.
Read the privacy policy for the details of location requests, connection logs, analytics and advertising.

3. Data sources
Live168 brings together government open data and official data sources. The main sources include:
- The Ministry of Transportation and Communications Transport Data eXchange (TDX), for public transport and road information.
- Taiwan Railway and Taiwan High Speed Rail, for timetables, fares and service information.
- Local government transportation and environmental-protection departments, including garbage-truck and parking data.
- The Ministry of Environment air-quality monitoring network, for AQI and PM2.5.
- The Ministry of Finance and Taiwan Lottery, for receipt-lottery and lottery results.
Check the source and update information shown with each result. Data availability and freshness depend on the service and the official feed.
4. How the service is built
- PWA support: home-screen installation and cached resources help the site behave like an app.
- Shared caching: the backend combines and caches requests to reduce repeated load on government data services.
- Mobile-first design: readable text, clear contrast and straightforward controls support different screen sizes and age groups.
