Loci - Social Map

Your city is covered in fog. Go light it up. Loci turns the real world into a map of hexagonal cells. Walk anywhere — your commute, a lunch break, a weekend hike — and every cell you pass through lights up, heat-map style. The more time you spend somewhere, the deeper its color burns, through 60 levels from pale lemon to deep crimson. PAINT THE MAP — FOR REAL Photos in Loci can only be taken with the in-app camera, at the place itself. Take a photo, and it fills your hexagon on the map — the world becomes a canvas painted square by square by people who actually stood there. Be the first to paint a cell and you're its First Painter, credited forever. • No uploads, no fakes — every photo was taken on location • The newest photo wears the cell; anyone there can repaint it • Browse a cell's album to see every photo ever taken there HOW THE HEAT WORKS • Pass through a cell — it lights up • Stay a while, come back on different days — it deepens • Your regular cafe, your daily route, your home turf: visible at a glance • Tap any cell for your personal diary: days visited, passes, total time spent YOUR EXPLORATION DIARY The calendar keeps every day: how many cells you lit, how far you walked, and a thumbnail of your route. Pick any date and revisit that day's wandering. PRIVACY FIRST • Your location is never shown to anyone else — only photos you deliberately publish • Servers store only which ~66m cells you visited, never precise coordinates • All photo metadata (including GPS) is stripped before display • Automated content screening, in-app reporting and blocking • Sign in with Apple; delete your account and your data anytime, in the app Battery friendly: GPS use drops automatically when you stay in one place. The map of your life is waiting. Start walking.
