Never lose a great location. Save spots, attach notes and photos, organize shoot lists, plan around the best light, and preview shots with the Framelines camera.
→ Drop a pin to remember the spot
Save any location in seconds. Add notes, attach reference photos from your camera roll or camera, apply tags, and set a priority level so your best spots stay front and center.
→ Track your progress
Mark each spot as scouted or photographed, log every visit date, and archive spots you want to keep without cluttering your active list. You’ll always know where you’ve been and what’s still worth revisiting.
→ Organize into lists
Group locations into color- and emoji-coded collections: golden hour rooftops, urban geometry, waterfalls, a vacation, and whatever else. Filter by list, tag, priority, scouted status, or photographed status to zero in on your next shoot.
→ Plan around the light, not the calendar
Every location shows precise golden hour, blue hour, and sunrise/sunset times. Visualize the sun's path on an interactive map, scrub through any time on any day, and pin your perfect moment.
→ Frame the shot
Open the Framelines camera from any spot to preview real-world framing with your gear. Simulate focal lengths, switch aspect ratios, use composition grids, choose from built-in camera profiles, create custom profiles, and capture reference photos with camera, lens, crop, time, and location metadata.
→ Meter the light
Take an EV reading from the Framelines camera, set ISO and exposure compensation, and get matching aperture and shutter speed pairs based on your camera profile.
→ Log your shots
Keep a log of every capture. Organize photos into projects and film rolls, record film stock, ISO, and exposure details, and add log-only entries when there's no image to attach.
→ Interactive map with clustered pins
Browse your entire library on a live map. Color-coded, clustered pins give you the full picture at a glance, while search, satellite view, and smart filtering help you drill into exactly the area you need.

See real-time conditions at any spot. Temperature, wind, UV, and low/mid/high cloud layers to predict dramatic skies and sunsets.

Point your phone at the sky and the full solar arc overlays your camera feed: golden hour, blue hour, and seasonal solstice paths included.
