SpotPal is a field research and planning tool for choosing a location for a physical shop. Record foot traffic, organize candidate premises, compare locations and estimate operating costs.
TRAFFIC OBSERVATION
Count passersby, store entries and purchases. Pause, resume or undo in single-store and two-store observations. Review charts and conversion rates across observation periods. Keep text, quick tags, photos and audio together in grouped notes.
LOCATION NOTES
Organize locations, rent, floor area, contacts and on-site materials. View candidate premises on a map and compare them.
BUSINESS ESTIMATES
Use profit and startup-cost calculators to plan revenue, expenses and initial funding.
ANALYSIS AND REPORTS
Review combined analysis and candidate comparisons. Generate single-store or multi-store observation reports, export PDF or images and share through the system share sheet. Select Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, English, Japanese, Russian or Korean in Settings. User-entered names, addresses and notes remain unchanged.
FREE TRIAL
No SpotPal account is required. Allowances accumulate from installation and do not reset monthly:
• 5 observation tasks shared by single-store and two-store modes;
• 3 advanced observation tasks shared by rider, queue, busy, direction and audience features;
• 3 report generations shared by single-store and multi-store reports;
• 3 combined analyses;
• 3 new location notes; deleting a note does not restore the allowance;
• 3 premises comparisons;
• 10 uses each for startup-cost and profit calculations.
Repeated generation for the same task or unchanged content does not consume an additional use. Existing records remain viewable.
LIFETIME PRO MEMBERSHIP
One purchase unlocks the currently released professional features without recurring renewal. The usage limits above are removed, with observation of 3–4 stores and optional iCloud synchronization. Photos and audio remain on your device. Pricing is shown on Apple's purchase confirmation. Use Restore Purchases to verify an existing entitlement.
Observations are manually entered by the user. Calculations depend on the inputs and are for research and business planning only.
LANGUAGE AND CURRENCY
On first launch, language and currency are selected from your device language and region. Unsupported languages use English. Change language and currency units manually in Settings. Choose CNY, HKD, MOP, TWD, USD, EUR, JPY, KRW, RUB and many other currencies. This changes display units only: no exchange-rate conversion and no change to saved amounts.
