## What is Mapsprink?

Every state and county you've set foot in deserves to be remembered — not just "been to that country."
Mapsprink is a personal travel check-in map, made for travelers like you who love to explore the world in depth. Check in at two levels of detail: Level 1 is a country's main regions, and Level 2 is the finer areas within.

Most countries' Level 1 / Level 2 check-ins are unlocked with a one-time in-app purchase per country (local price shown before you confirm).

Supported areas so far (33 countries):
• United States — 57 States & Territories / 3,259 Counties & Districts
• Mexico — 32 States / 2,473 Municipalities
• Russia — 83 Federal Subjects / 2,288 Districts
• Japan — 47 Prefectures / 1,741 Municipalities
• Turkey — 81 Provinces / 974 Districts (İlçe)
• Thailand — 77 Provinces / 925 Districts (Amphoe)
• India — 36 States & Union Territories / 781 Districts
• Australia — 9 States & Territories / 570 LGAs & Districts
• Indonesia — 38 Provinces / 514 Regencies & Cities
• Brazil — 27 States / 511 Immediate Regions
...
(The 10 above are simply the largest by area count.)

Other countries also covered down to Level 2: China, Germany, Taiwan, Norway, Netherlands, Canada, Sweden, United Kingdom, South Korea, Malaysia, Switzerland, Austria, France, Italy, Denmark, Finland, Philippines, New Zealand, Singapore, Spain.
Covered to Level 1 only: Egypt, San Marino, Vietnam. More countries' regions may be added in the future.

• Two ways to check in: tap a region on the map, or use your device location to check in where you are
• Three levels of marking: Passed through, Visited, or Stayed — a change of planes is not the same as a week somewhere
• Retrace a long journey: lay long-distance routes over the map — high-speed and regular rail, motorways, metro and light rail — to work out which areas you passed through (Taiwan, the United States, Japan, Germany, Hong Kong, Singapore)
• Search everywhere: find every country and area from any view — including Chinese and Japanese names for world-famous cities
• Name labels: area names drawn right on the map tiles (switchable, choose the name language, optional in photos)
• Earn medals (bronze, silver, gold, cup) as your coverage grows
• Collect a sticker for every country and watch your completion % climb
• Snap and share a picture of your map
• Works offline — your check-ins stay on your device
• Save and restore your progress with an optional backup to your OWN Google Drive — handy when you switch phones (we never see your data)
