## What is Futa Trip － Manhole Dex?

On street corners across Japan, a painted manhole cover often lies quietly at your feet.
They're scattered across prefectures all over Japan: some in front of a station, some in a small seaside town, some you can only reach on a bus that runs a few times a day.

Futa Trip would like to keep you company as you find them, one by one.

Open the map and see where the next one is and how far away.
Choose the ones you want to visit, set the order, look up trains and buses, and see how long you'll walk.
On the day, Futa Trip gently reminds you where the next stop is and when your train comes.

When it's right there in front of you, take a photo and add it to your collection.
It stays in your photo library, so the memory is always there.

Open Memories any time.
Walk the road you took once more in Futa Trip, as the photos from that day appear one by one.

You'll also see photos others left in front of the same cover.
A different season, a different light, the same cover.
Send your route to whoever is coming with you.
On to the next one, together.
