Pinfold is an offline catalogue for your KML and KMZ files. Import the places you care about once — trails, travel itineraries, scouted locations, survey points, saved pins exported from other mapping tools — then browse and navigate them anywhere, with no signal required. Most KML files come from somewhere else: Google Earth exports, GIS tools, a guide who shared a route, a colleague's site survey. Pinfold gives those files a permanent, organized home on your device instead of leaving them buried in email attachments and downloads folders. BUILT FOR OFFLINE • Load a file once with a connection, then use it completely offline. • Icons and photos referenced by the file are cached on import, so they're there when you're off the grid. • Nothing depends on a server — your library lives on your device. BROWSE YOUR PLACES • Navigate the original folder hierarchy from the KML, exactly as it was authored. • Tap any placemark for its full details: description, photos, and any extended data fields the file carries. • Custom placemark icons and colors from the file's styles are preserved. SEE IT ON THE MAP • View all of a file's pins together on an embedded map. • Nearby pins group into numbered clusters when you zoom out, so dense files stay readable. NAVIGATE WITH THE APP YOU ALREADY USE • Open any place in Apple Maps, Google Maps, Waze, Organic Maps, Guru Maps, OsmAnd, Magic Earth, Citymapper, and more. • Set a default map app for one-tap navigation, or pick each time. • Apps you don't have installed are hidden automatically. IMPORT FROM ANYWHERE • Share a .kml or .kmz file to Pinfold from any app. • Open KML/KMZ files directly from the Files app or attachments. • Import several files at once. KEEP YOUR LIBRARY IN SYNC (OPTIONAL) • Turn on iCloud to keep your imported files on every device signed in to the same iCloud account. • Your files stay in your private iCloud — Pinfold has no account and no servers. PRIVATE BY DESIGN • No account, no sign-up, no ads, no tracking. • Your location is shown only on your device and never leaves it. Pinfold is a viewer and launcher: it reads your files faithfully and hands you off to the navigation app you prefer. Bring your places; take them anywhere. ## Version history (last 5 releases) ### 1.7 — 2026-07-02 • Pinfold now picks up where you left off — if iOS closes the app in the background, it reopens on the same file, page, and scroll position, with your search and sorting intact. Turn it off anytime in Settings. • Each file's map remembers its position and zoom, plus whether you were following your location. A new button zooms back out to show all pins. • Fixed: the map no longer jumps to your current location on its own. ### 1.6 — 2026-06-18 Multiple fixes and improvements. ### 1.2 — 2026-05-29 Minor bug fixes and improvements ### 1.1 — 2026-05-28 Allow users to mark a point in KML as a favorite or as having been seen. ### 1.0 — 2026-05-28 No release notes. ## More apps by Volodymyr Smirnov - [Hunger App](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/hunger-app/id6757480947) All apps by Volodymyr Smirnov: https://appshunter.io/developer/1865296263 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
