## What is Seeker?

You step out of the subway in a new city, open your map, and still can't tell which way you're facing.
So you stand there turning in circles, or walk half a block before realizing you have to turn back.

With Seeker, you just start walking the way the arrow points.
The screen shows an arrow toward your destination and how far away it is.
Even if maps have never been your thing, you'll know which way to go.

START WALKING THE MOMENT YOU ARRIVE
No more standing at a station exit trying to make sense of the map.
Head to a meetup spot or a restaurant you've never been to without second-guessing every turn.
There are no street names or turn-by-turn instructions to remember.

KEEP YOUR EYES ON THE STREET, NOT YOUR PHONE
An arrow and a number take a quick glance, so you can look up and enjoy where you are.
You'll get a notification 100 m before your destination and another when you arrive.
The remaining distance and time also show on your Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island.

IN A CROWD, JUST CHECK YOUR WRIST
At a festival, in a packed station or at a red light on your bike, you can check your direction without pulling out your phone.
Set a destination on your iPhone and it's sent to your Apple Watch automatically.

A RELIABLE GUIDE OUTDOORS
When there's no road to follow, knowing "that way, 400 m" is often all you need.
• Campsites
• Fishing spots
• Trail junctions
• Beaches and ski slopes

NO MORE WANDERING AROUND LOOKING FOR YOUR CAR
Coming back to a huge parking lot, a trailhead or an event venue is a lot less stressful.
Save your spot when you park, then follow the arrow back.

EASY WITH ONE HAND
Carrying bags or holding a child's hand? You can still use Seeker with one hand.
The search bar sits at the bottom of the screen, within reach of your thumb.
Zoom the map by sliding along the edge of the screen. No pinching needed.

NEW PHONE, SAME PLACES
Your saved places come with you when you switch to a new iPhone.
Back up your favorites and history to iCloud and restore them by signing in with the same Apple Account.
Available on the free plan too.

### 4/5 — English

*2025-12-11*

How to switch English?

### 5/5 — Good!

*2025-09-24*

Good no-map navigation app.  Very intuitive

One problem: on the watch version, place names can get long, push the compass off the watch screen.  Obvious fix: put the compass on top, the (possibly truncated) text below.  NYC gwb is a good example

### 3/5 — Does what it says on the tin.

*2025-07-24*

It’s an arrow. It points at your destination. Nuf said.  My only issue is it doesn’t work in CarPlay, limiting its usefulness to me.

### 5/5 — بطل👍🏼

*2025-06-16, version 2.0.0*

لو فيه امكانية في البحث (حسب الأقرب) + بحث بخطوط الطول والعرض لإستخدامات الصحراء 👌🏽

### 5/5 — これ使いやすい

*2024-11-22, version 1.17.0*

コンパスの表示にしたがってその方向に進み、迷いそうになったらワンタップで地図を確認できるというのはとても使い勝手がいい。通常の地図で誘導するタイプのアプリと両方入れとくととても便利そうです。試しに検索してみたら目的地候補もけっこう表示されるし、このコンセプトのアプリということでは文句なし。

### 5/5 — 地図読むのが苦手、せっかち、災害時に不安、な方におすすめ

*2024-06-24, version 1.17.0*

目的地を長押しして「ここに行く」で、すぐ歩き出せるのが最高！
他の地図アプリと違って、方向を自分で考えなくていいし、地下でもコンパスで方角を見てくれるので、最初の一歩に迷わなくて済む。ありがたい。
目的地まであと何メートルか表示されるので、近づいてから改めて地図ソフトを開けば問題なく到着出来ます。
災害時用にも心強い。ダウンロードしておいて、幾つか辿り着きたい場所を登録しておけば安心です。災害時にダウンロードしても目的地が表示出来ないから、平時に備えておいた方がいいでしょうね。

### 5/5 — 素晴らしいアプリ

*2022-08-07, version 1.12.0*

Apple Watchと組み合わせると最強です。是非お勧めできます。

### 5/5 — ليبيا

*2022-07-29, version 1.12.0*

تبيني

### 5/5 — ありがとうございます

*2022-07-10, version 1.12.0*

なかったらのたれ死んでいました

### 2/5 — まだ改良の余地あり

*2022-07-10, version 1.12.0*

知っている場所を入力して試してみました 方向音痴は間近に着ていてもたどり着けないから方向音痴なので目的地付近に着いた時に音声ナビをして欲しい 案内開始時に目的地方向とランドマークを音声案内してもらえるとありがたい 方角が大きくずれた時は音声ナビで右や戻って下さい等の案内が欲しい
夜間に主に使う私には今のままでは使えない
