This paper introduces Hush City; a novel mobile app to find, map and evaluate "everyday quiet areas" in cities. The Hush City app has been developed as a soundscape and citizen science tool in the framework of a participatory methodology to identify, evaluate and plan "everyday quiet areas", successfully tested in Berlin by means of a pilot study. Firstly, this paper outlines the original aspects of the pilot study against the state of the art of methods applied in Europe for the identification of urban quiet areas. Secondly, it describes the Hush City app's concept and its functionality. Thirdly, it discusses the results of crowdsourcing of "everyday quiet areas" in Berlin by using the Hush City app. In conclusion, the Hush City app's potential in the context of noise action plans is briefly outlined, especially in the context of the Berlin Noise Action Plan.
