## What is MapOn?

Beyond the places you've forgotten, onto the map.

MapOn reads location data from photos in your gallery and paints the districts, cities, and countries you've visited onto your personal map.

ONE SCAN COMPLETES THE WHOLE COUNTRY
All it needs is your photos' GPS metadata. Background scanning sorts through thousands of photos automatically — no manual entry, your travel history builds itself on the map.

DOMESTIC AND OVERSEAS COVERAGE
• South Korea: 17 metropolitan/provincial regions, 250+ city·county·district units
• Japan: 47 prefectures + 1,800+ municipalities (dual-tone fill)
• United States: 50 states + 63 National Parks auto-matched
• Philippines: 81 provinces
• 100+ other countries via automatic reverse geocoding

JOURNEY SHARE CARD
A magazine-style achievement card combining your visit stats, progress, and ranking on a single page. Pinch and pan to compose your shot, then share with friends in one tap.

PHOTOBOOK TRAVEL ALBUMS
Edit photos like in PPT to build your own travel book, auto-synced to the cloud. Customize everything from cover to inside pages.

GLOBAL RANKINGS
Compare visited regions with other users on 1-month, 3-month, and lifetime scales. Search friends by nickname.

5 LANGUAGES
Fully translated in Korean, English, Japanese, Chinese, and Spanish.

YOUR PHOTOS STAY SAFE
Only the GPS metadata is read — your actual photos never leave your device. All processing happens locally.

— You'll know when you arrive at your next destination. MapOn will have already painted it.

### 3/5 — 왜 멀쩡히

*2026-08-25*

색칠되어있던 맵이 어느 순간 왜 백지가 되었을까요~??

### 5/5 — 응원합니다~!!!

*2026-06-18*

스레드에서 추천받고 바로 달려와서 사용하기 시작했는데 앱이 너무 예뻐요~!!!

**Developer response:** chase.park님, 따뜻한 응원 정말 감사합니다! 🙏 예쁘게 봐주셔서 큰 힘이 됩니다. 앞으로도 여행의 추억을 더 아름답게 담을 수 있도록 계속 다듬어 나가겠습니다. 즐거운 여행 되세요! 😊

### 3/5 — 수동으로 업로드된 사진

*2026-05-21*

수동으로 업로드된 사진이 있는 지역도 지도 상에 표시되어야 하는데 여전히 흰색 바탕으로 뜹니다.

**Developer response:** 안녕하세요, 소중한 의견 감사합니다. 수동 등록한 사진의 지역이 지도에 색칠되지 않던 문제를 확인하여 수정하였습니다. 최신 버전으로 업데이트하신 뒤에도 동일한 지역이 흰색으로 남아 있다면, 개인정보와 무관한 화면 캡처를 askme@mapon.co.kr로 보내주시면 바로 확인해 드리겠습니다. 불편을 드려 죄송하며, 더 정확하게 담기도록 계속 개선하겠습니다. 감사합니다.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.8.10 — 2026-09-08

• The map is dramatically smoother — we rebuilt how it renders while you pinch and pan, so it now follows your fingertips
• Reinstalling now greets you by your MapOn nickname instead of your account name, plus small onboarding polish

### 1.8.9 — 2026-09-03

• The map's opening light-up show now carries a year caption — from your first visit to this year, your footprints fill in chronological order
• Subscription pricing now shows the billed amount front and center

### 1.8.7 — 2026-09-02

• Fixed the first scan sometimes failing to start on devices with very large libraries — the start signal now retries until it lands
• While a scan is running, its progress is now included in the check screen and reports

### 1.8.5 — 2026-08-31

• Add trips your photos missed — pick the countries and dates in the Globe tab, and the globe turns to that country and lights up your route
• Picking dates now goes year → month → day. Four taps reach a trip from years ago

### 1.8.4 — 2026-08-29

• The timeline now reads like a photo feed — full-width covers with the date and year up front
• Videos you shot on the trip now play inside your travel story, for everyone
• Fixed: scrolling back up made cards fade in again, one by one
• A better globe tab — deeper night sky, no freeze when you leave, and Replay works every time now
• Fixed: typing in the photo check pushed the sheet away, and a false 'no location' warning
