#1 App for Painted Rocks Tracking
Have you stumbled across a painted rock with a message of kindness or encouragement?
Finding a rock that makes you smile or delivers an inspirational message can be the difference between a bad day and a great day!
Painted rocks with inspirational messages are all around us now as thousands of rock painters have hidden their creations in the wild.
How do you find painted rocks? How do you track rocks you’ve painted and hidden for others to discover?
Our NEW Painted Rocks App helps you do both!
Using our unique Rock Locator Map you can find those gems of inspiration hidden in parks, hiking trails, rest stops, playgrounds, and other places in your community. Painted rocks are identified with special pins. Tap on a pin to see an image of the rock and learn about its creator and its history.
You can also use the Rock Locator Map to find Painted Rock Gardens where rock creators have hidden dozens, sometimes even hundreds of painted rocks for others to find or exchange.
If you’re a rock painter, our Painted Rocks App will help you track your rock and follow its journey as it brings joy and comfort to all those who find it.
Painted Rocks make the world a better place because they inspire acts of kindness and joy.
Within the Painted Rocks App, you’ll be able to:
FOR ROCK PAINTERS:
- Share your painted rocks with the world
- Attach tracking codes to your rocks to follow their journey
- Write a “mission” or goal for your painted rock so others know what to do
- Drop a pin on a map where your painted rocks are located so other users can find them
FOR ROCK FINDERS:
- Locate painted rocks on our Rock Locator Map
- Examine the rock’s timeline, a history of where that rock has traveled, who created it and when
- Find Painted Rock Gardens where you can choose from dozens or even hundreds of painted rocks to add to your collection
This app has a fatal flaw… if someone picks up a rock and records it in the app but neglects to “release” it in the app, then anyone who subsequently finds it is unable to even locate it in the app because it’s still showing as being in someone’s collection. The app becomes completely useless at that point. This has happened to a majority of the rocks I’ve placed in the app. Contacted support and had a very long and ongoing conversation about this issue, and they eventually made it clear that they have ABSOLUTELY NO INTENTION TO FIX IT. Had high hopes for this app but it turns out to be completely worthless unless they work out this issue that they’ve expressed zero interest in fixing.
