### 5/5 — 10/10 GAME CHANGER

*2026-07-19*

I don’t usually write reviews, but this changed the way I travel I’ve always saved tons of TikTok‘s and reels, but when I came to actually pinning them down on the map, I’d never do it. this automated that process. GOATED APP

### 5/5 — love it!

*2026-07-14, version 2.0.5  ʕ-.-ʔ mio the squirrel*

so so helpful when trying to plan travel destinations, so much easier than writing it all down in your notes. so easy to use and set up too. absolutely would 100% recommend

### 5/5 — Geil

*2026-07-12*

Ich liebe die App speichere gerade alles mögliche ab und falls etwas vorher noch nie abgespeichert wurde dauert die Bearbeitungszeit des Reels auch nicht sehr lange bis man es dann in der App hat. Zeige das gerade auch all meinen Bekannten weil ich es so geil finde. Die App soll genau so bleiben finde glaub ich gerade überhaupt keine Mängel. Die UI ist auch schön intuitiv.

### 5/5 — A traveler’s heaven!

*2026-07-10*

This app is actually incredibly well made and laid out too! As someone who travels a lot, it’s super convenient to just share a video from any platform straight to this app and it does all the heavy lifting for you. You can even reference the original video in case you want to go back; which to me, is incredible. It puts everything right on the map so you can see exactly where every place is in relation to each other. It even gives you suggestions/advice on each bookmark with tips, why go, must try’s, and even contact information of a certain landmark if it’s available! Super super handy and I couldn’t suggest it more.

### 5/5 — Love the App

*2026-07-07*

Very helpfull companion for planning your Trip.

### 5/5 — 👍

*2026-07-02*

Nice features 👍

### 5/5 — this app is the best thing to happen to my travel folder on tiktok

*2026-06-23*

genuinely thought this app was too good to be true before I started using it, but it somehow surpassed all my expectations. Even when the video doesn’t explicitly state in writing or anywhere the place it’s talking about this app still somehow scams the video and pins the right place. My life is changed fr

### 4/5 — Please make it available for android!!

*2026-06-10*

I wanna share the experience and planned trip with my friend and he cant afford apple…

**Developer response:** heyo! we're working on this but for now the trips and collections you share are openable in their web browser if you'd like a work around!

### 5/5 — Great!

*2026-06-09*

Love the app! I’d love it even more if it supported videos from Rednote (Xiaohongshu) 👀 I’d like to travel to China sometime and Rednote has some of the best China travel content.

**Developer response:** thats a great idea, potentially even amap integrations. we'll look into this - thank you!

### 5/5 — Life changing app

*2026-06-08*

I’m so excited to use this during my gap year. Already have so much saved all over the world

### 5/5 — so helpful

*2026-06-02*

i love this app so much - note for the developers could you PLEASE make another app of the same thing but like for recipes so you share the recipe video to the app and it saves the recipe for you

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2026-05-31, version 1.7.12 creepy crawlies squashed*

Was sceptical before downloading but was pleasantly surprised! Loaded loads of videos from TikTok and they all appeared instantly. Shared a link with friends who can now collaborate on a trip we’re planning. Big fan!!

### 5/5 — Great app

*2026-05-31, version 1.7.11 more squash soup*

It’s so easy to use and a great interface with constant updates improving it every single time

### 5/5 — Love it

*2026-05-30, version 1.7.11 more squash soup*

Makes keeping a track of all those posts an ease :) many hours mapping things in Google Maps have been saved already

### 5/5 — Revolutionising my Holiday Itinerary

*2026-05-29*

10/10!! I’m obsessed with this app for planning my holiday. Also, saving all of the brunch and restaurant spots near me!

**Developer response:** we're sooo happy you love it, thank you!

### 5/5 — I’m obsessed

*2026-05-28*

Okay as an avid traveler and doom scroller this app is literally so perfect!! I so recommend it to anyone who travels or is even just on TikTok a lot ✨

**Developer response:** wahoo!! we're so happy you love it mate :)

### 5/5 — Life changing

*2026-05-28*

This app is seriously genius. I always used to struggle with turning TikTok recommendations into real plans and this solves that with no stress.

### 5/5 — For the lazy vacation planners

*2026-05-26*

This app is for the lazy vacation planners. What I mean by that is that due to the technology boom, people have gotten used to instant gratification and would rather not put the extra effort in to do certain tasks. Thanks to your app, one can send reels from their IG or Tiktok and the app will extract the basic information from the video and plot that on the map. Now, it's not all the time accurate, but that's ok. You can always go into the listing and change it manually. The app also gives an AI generated summary of the video and plots it on the listing/location. I find the app very helpful, I just wish I found it before my Japan trip and not after. But, it makes me look forward to my next international trip! It also works great domestically for it allows me to plot my food spots on a map as well. All in all, I highly suggest this app, it makes planning a little bit easier and more convenient.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2026-04-25*

Doesn’t work

Edit as of April 25 still doesn’t work but instead of saying can’t find location it just give a completely random and different location

**Developer response:** sorry to hear :( feedback button in app is always open if you'd like to reach out and we'll make sure you're getting a good experience!

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2026-02-23*

Doesn’t work

**Developer response:** sorry to hear :( if you're ever up to give our newer version a try we've ironed out alot of kinks!

### 1/5 — Kinda works

*2026-01-26*

Good concept but only half the places I tried to save worked. I think the post needs to have the name of the place in it for you? I’m unsure.

**Developer response:** Ah sorry it wasn't working too well when you tried it! We've released an update today that improves extraction quality a lot. As long as the name of the place is mentioned in either the description, the audio, or on-screen text then it should pick it up :) We've also added a "failed videos" folder in the app so you can see the specific ones that aren't working.

### 3/5 — Awesome concept

*2026-04-22*

I have been thinking about an app that does this for a while! The only issue is I have tons of saved travel videos already and it would be tedious to go back and send them individually. I tried sending my TikTok travel collection directly, but it failed pretty quickly. If there was a way to send these all at once I would give 5 stars!

### 3/5 — Great app but few annoying bugs

*2026-04-08*

Its an great app with an cool idea behind it but sadly many things still need some work. Most of the time when i want to share it something from TikTok it says that something went wrong on their end. When i then want to add the place manually most of the time other places show up but not the one i searched for even when im giving an adress or the city too.

### 3/5 — v temperamental but I’m hopeful!

*2026-03-31, version 1.7.5 squash soup*

I absolutely love the concept of this and think it could be a great app with some development but unfortunately upon trying it, it has only saved one of the places out of the several I have saved (tried to save each multiple times) although it told me each had saved, but can’t find them anywhere. I will be keeping the app in the hopes it will work 100% of the time eventually! Pleaseeeee sort this

### 3/5 — Great idea, but the implementation leaves room for improvement

*2026-02-22*

The app didn’t work for me that well. It took way too long to analyze regular Instagram posts with clear captions and often returned false results. Some popular tourist destinations in Germany were repeatedly marked as random locations in the US or Czechia - and even when the algorithm got most of the places right, a few were still misinterpreted. 
So, instead of waiting for over 30 minutes per post, double-checking the results and then manually correcting them, I’d rather just take 5 minutes to mark them on Google Maps myself 😅

### 3/5 — Idea is good but output is average

*2026-01-22*

Works on some on the reels where the place name is told clearly in the video or if it’s mentioned in the description. But doesn’t work on video having text to show places, same places many locations, no captions or descriptions. 
And you need to be in app for these to load.

Would like it if it uses ur actual Google maps instead of the inbuilt one. 

The reel to places reference idea is a very good feature.

**Developer response:** Thank you for leaving this comment! Update on what we've addressed:
1. Extraction now looks at the description, audio, and on-screen text for places. Multiple places in the same video is supported
2. Processing now works when you are in other apps
3. You can open up any find onto Google Maps or Apple Maps
Thanks again for the feedback, any other issues please let me know!

### 4/5 — amazing

*2026-08-23*

love this app sm. i first started using it while i was studying abroad and now i have places that i want to go to all over the world. super easy to use. i am sad that they got rid of their little animal guy that would pop up when a video was saved 😔😔

### 4/5 — Loving this so far!

*2026-07-09*

I’m planning 2 overseas trips at the moment and this app is making it so easy! I love how I can get directions from one place to the next all through the app. I love the extra info include about the place I’ve saved as well. Bravo!

### 5/5 — Game changer!!

*2026-08-19*

I did not think this would work but omg??? It’s so easy to use and not only does it map & lay things out from a video but it will give you tips and information on every place! Ahh this is iconic! I love it! Using it to plan my London trip

If you like to travel and have many videos saved. This app is amazing because you can now see everything visually.

### 5/5 — I love mio

*2026-07-31, version 2.0.9 ʕ-.-ʔ bugs in da bin*

I’ve been using this app whilst travelling in china and it has made planning so much easier. Had no problems within the app, experienced no bugs.

One thing that’d be nice would be expanding to more apps in the future, other than ig and tiktok. e.g rednote, youtube.

### 5/5 — goated app

*2026-07-27*

### 5/5 — The best app for travel lovers

*2026-07-25*

This app makes it so easy to keep track of all the places you want to go on your travels. I used to save them on instagram and never look at them or try to save them on instagram or google maps myself. Such a timesaver!

### 5/5 — love it

*2026-07-21, version 2.0.7 ʕ-.-ʔ mio found more bugs*
