Great apps

Very beautiful

I’m from Japan and I find this app to be very well designed and beautiful. I was able to search for shrines in my local area. I think I will use it when I visit other prefectures too.

Response from developer

Thank you so much for your kind review. I’m happy to hear you’re from Japan and that you’re finding the app beautifully designed. It means a lot that you’ve been able to search for shrines near you, and I hope it helps you discover even more when you visit other prefectures!

Absolute Must-Have for Anyone Traveling in Japan

This app is simply amazing! If you’re planning to visit temples and shrines in Japan - especially if you collect goshuin - this app is an absolute must-have.

It makes finding temples and shrines incredibly easy and being able to save every goshuin means you’ll always remember exactly where you received each one. Looking back at past trips has become so much more enjoyable because everything is organized in one place.

One of the best things about the app is its community. The database keeps growing with new temples and shrines and if you find a place that’s missing, you can suggest it. New locations are usually added very quickly, which is impressive.

I’ve also reported a few minor mistakes and they were corrected almost immediately. It’s obvious that the developer is passionate about the app and truly listens to user feedback.

The combination of an excellent app, an active community and a responsive developer makes this one of the best travel apps I’ve ever used. I honestly can’t imagine traveling through Japan without it. Highly recommended!
