## What is spotra?

spotra is a social map for places actually worth leaving the house for.

no stock photos, no sponsored pins, no five-year-old images. every public spot on spotra is a real photo taken on camera, at the exact location, right when it was posted. gallery uploads aren't allowed — so what you see is what's really there.

— explore the map

open the map and see what people found around you: golden hour viewpoints, cozy study cafés, hidden gems, photo-worthy corners. filter by category, tap a spot, and vibe check it before you go.

— drop your own spots

found a place that deserves to be seen? point your camera, take a photo, and drop it on the map in under 20 seconds. location is set automatically — no faking, no fluff.

— verified visits & vibes

actually went? check in when you're within 200 meters. spots live and breathe with real visits from real people.

— own your area

the more spots you drop and the more love they get, the more the area becomes yours. your color spreads over your neighborhood, and everyone can see who really knows the area. climb the local leaderboard and become the #1 explorer of your city.

— find your friends

add friends by username, QR code, or straight from your contacts. see the spots they've dropped right on your map, switch to a friends-only view, and build shared lists together for a trip, a date night, or wherever's next.

— your private map

save spots you want to visit, and keep personal places just for you — favorite corners, plans, inspiration. only you can see your private map.
built for people who'd rather be out finding places.
