## What is PinsPad?

Short Description
Create multiple map pins from location text and plan routes with polylines. Great for visualizing trips before and after you travel.

Overview
This app lets you create pins on a map from location text. You can quickly place multiple pins, visualize your travel plans, and review routes before and after your trip. It’s also useful for presenting your itinerary or checking directions on the go.

How It Works
• Copy location text from another app, paste it into the text field on the Edit screen, then switch to the Map screen to display the corresponding pin.
• Long‑press on the map to add a pin, then paste location text on the Edit screen to refine it.
• Define polylines (straight lines) on the Edit screen and display them on the Map screen.
• Generate polylines automatically from existing pin locations via the menu.
• Show callouts for two pins and tap the button to display a route between them.
• Open the same route in the standard Maps app if needed.
• Use your current location to check for deviations from your planned route.

Main Uses
1. Recording travel itineraries
2. Confirming routes to tourist destinations
3. Checking directions for business trips
4. Reviewing unplanned visits
5. Confirming routes for errands, government offices, financial institutions, and temple stamp collecting
6. Sharing directions via data transfer
7. Creating short travel presentations
8. Planning a move while considering commuting routes
9. Checking delivery, pickup, patrol, and inspection routes
10. Checking evacuation routes
11. Visualizing travel plans
