What's New in PlayPinDrop

1.3

September 24, 2026

A new name and a new look. The app is now PlayPinDrop, with a new mark: a hand dropping a pin on the map, in a color of its own for every game. Also in this release: Clearer maps. Parks, forests and built-up areas now read apart from each other properly, including for color-blind players. A reviewer told us the green and the grey were hard to tell apart, and they were right. Everything else is where you left it. Same daily five, same streaks, same groups, same archive. Nothing to do on your end.

Excellent and addictive

A fun, informative and satisfying geography game. It provides a good mix of locations, unlimited practice rounds, easily shareable results, and one-line snippets of info about each place, with a link to learn more. I have already learned about several landmarks and cities I’d not previously heard of, and my geography has improved.

I have to criticise the colours - it is very difficult to distinguish between green and grey on the map, making it harder to identify urban vs rural areas. It’s the only thing preventing me from giving this app 5 stars.

Response from developer

Thank you for this. It made my day to read that PinDrop has taught you places you had not heard of, because that is exactly what I built it for. You are right about the colors, and I should have caught it earlier. I am reworking the map so forests read clearly green and built-up areas read clearly dark, in both light and dark mode, and I am checking the new colors against a color-blindness simulation rather than just my own eyes. It will be in the next update. Thank you for taking the time to write this up so precisely. If anything else gets in the way of the game, I would love to hear it: william@playpindrop.app.

Ad is in the way

I like these games. My only issue is that there’s an ad banner along the bottom of the screen that makes it impossible to read the entire clue in the wayfinder game or to submit your answer. Makes that game completely unplayable.

Response from developer

Thanks so much for the review and thank you for bringing up the issue with Wayfinder. I'm actively working on getting that fixed and make sure the game is playable for you. I apologize but hope to have you back up and playing soon. Edit: this has been fixed. Hope you're still enjoying the game!
