## What is Tabifu?

Stop for a moment and shoot a few seconds. Every spot lands on the map, and when the trip ends you get one travel vlog with place and date captions. Tabifu is a travel diary camera for grown-up travelers who want to keep their journeys without spending time on editing.

Ridges at dawn, rivers in the valley, hot-spring towns at night. On a mountain trail or a city walk, the path you take becomes your record.

・One tap records a few seconds. Choose 1, 2 or 3 seconds per clip
・A simple camera: no framing stress, no editing

・Turn your phone sideways to shoot in landscape, even with rotation lock on
・Also save as a Live Photo or still
・Built-in QR reader in the camera: point to open links or copy text
・Open the camera fast from a Home Screen widget, Control Center or Siri

■ Keep
・GPS records where you shot and adds the place name and address
・Each trip becomes its own volume, like "Alps Traverse" or "Kyoto in Autumn"
・Pins and routes on the map show your whole journey at a glance
・Add a short note to any spot

■ Recap
・When a trip ends, a recap video with place and date captions is made for you
・Export in portrait (9:16) or landscape (16:9), and change the layout and export again anytime
・Save to Photos or share in one tap

■ Big screens
・On iPad and foldable iPhone, your trip list and map sit side by side

The path you walked becomes your travel log.

### 2/5 — シンプルで使いやすい

*2026-11-01*

まだ使い始めたばかりですが、シンプルで直感的に扱えてとても良いアプリです！ただ、premium機能で過去の動画を読み込んで追加できるのに、Live photoが読み込めません（表示されるものとされないものがある）…バグでしょうか？
それとレンダリングを横画面できるともっと良かったです。

### 2/5 — 重すぎる

*2026-07-25*

現在地を特定できないと動画を撮ることはできない、動画が撮れないタイミングがある。

地図に撮った場所が表示されるはずが重すぎてアプリが落ちる。動画を撮れば撮るほど重くなる、旅なのに数日撮り溜めただけで重くなり、アプリが動かなくなる。

**Developer response:** レビューありがとうございます。
またご迷惑お掛けしてしまい申し訳ありません。

アプリパフォーマンスについては一部端末において負荷が大きい状況が確認されており、他の方からも軽量化について望まれております。

こちらに関しては、次バージョンにて改善の見込みでございます。
アップデートまで少しお時間いただけますと幸いです。

### 5/5 — 使いやすい！

*2026-07-07*

シンプルな構造でとても使いやすく、あれこれと考えなくて済むので、気軽にVlogを作成できます。
ただ、個人的に1秒だと画面の切り替えが早くて少し酔いやすいので、秒数は2パターンで選べると嬉しいです。
秒数に関してはあくまで個人的な感覚なので、1秒がベストな人には満点のアプリだと思います！
→と、思いましたが、他の方のレビューに秒数変更できると…？
探しきった気がしましたが、私の探す力が足りなかったのかもです…！

**Developer response:** レビューありがとうございます！

秒数に関しては、カメラ画面の上部に設定タブがございまして、そちらから秒数を3秒まで変更することが可能です！

こちら分かりづらさもありますので今後のアップデートで改善させていただきます！

引き続き旅のお供にご活用いただけますと幸いです！

### 5/5 — まとめと行程地図が楽しい

*2026-06-27*

まとめ動画ができるのも楽しいですが、撮影地点が地図上に載ってくるので「ああ、こんなところに立ち寄ったなぁ」とふりかえれるのがとても楽しいです。

**Developer response:** レビューありがとうございます！
今後もアップデートで、日々のお出かけをより楽しくできる仕掛けを作っていきたいと思いますので、今後とも是非よろしくお願いいたします！

### 5/5 — アプデありがとうございます！

*2026-06-20*

ウィジェットからもカメラが起動するようになり、撮りやすくなりました！

たまにシャッターが反応しない(反応が遅い)時があります(TT)
秒数などを変えたあとに反応しなくなりがちです……
また、インカメが右に傾けると左に傾いてしまうのでちょっと自撮りがしにくいです……
改善いただけると嬉しいです！

**Developer response:** レビューありがとうございます！

ウィジェットの不具合についてもご連絡ありがとうございます。
こちらは調査の上不具合修正をさせていただきますので、少々お時間を頂けますと幸いです！

追記:
レビューのコメントアップデートもありがとうございます！
ご報告いただいきましたカメラ機能に関しては順次対応してまいりますので、少々お時間をいただけますと幸いです！
仕事の合間開発しておりますので、少し亀さんアップデートになりますが着実に改善を進めていきます。

### 5/5 — 使いやすい

*2026-05-12*

シンプルで使いやすい

**Developer response:** レビューありがとうございます！「シンプルで使いやすい」と感じていただけたこと、開発者としてとても嬉しいです。これからも気軽に旅の記録を残せるアプリを目指して改善を続けていきます。素敵な旅を🧳

### 2.3.0 — 2026-09-28

Thank you for capturing your travel seconds with Tabifu.

Version 2.3.0 makes sure your trip movie can be finished, even after capturing lots of spots.

・Fixed an issue where creating a trip movie stopped partway (around 40%) on trips with many spots (100 or more)
・While a trip movie is being created, progress now keeps moving as maps and captions are prepared

If a trip movie couldn't be created before, please try again after updating — all your clips are still there.

May Tabifu keep gently weaving your travels and your lifelog.

### 2.1.0 — 2026-08-02

Version 2.1.0 is a big update: new features, plus fixes for "can't shoot" and "feels heavy".

・The camera opens even quicker — ready the moment you tap
・A QR code reader is built into the camera — just point at a menu or ticket QR
・You can now shoot even where GPS can't reach, like mountains or underground — location is added later, once available
・Trip movies can now be created from videos shot without sound (microphone not allowed)
・Maps are much lighter for trips with many spots — smooth even after days of shooting
・Fixed videos from the front camera being saved in the wrong orientation

Fixing the little stumbles one by one — may Tabifu keep gently weaving your travels and your lifelog.

### 2.0.1 — 2026-06-14

Thank you for capturing your travel seconds with Tabifu.

This update fixes an issue where tapping the Home Screen widget sometimes wouldn't open the camera. You can now start recording straight from the widget, just as before.

We keep caring about the little moments of ease — may Tabifu keep gently weaving your lifelog.

### 2.0.0 — 2026-05-20

Thank you for capturing your travel seconds with Tabifu.

2.0.0 is our biggest update yet, built around the idea of making both capturing and looking back feel more comfortable.

・Added a manual focus ring you trace around the shutter — set focus right where you want and capture that striking one second.
・Stabilization is here, and digital zoom now reaches up to 10×. Less shake when zoomed in, and distant subjects stay crisp.
・Recap video export is much faster now. See progress on Dynamic Island or the Lock Screen, and it keeps finishing quietly even when you close the app.
・Seconds shot at the same place now group together on the map — tap to look back through a chronological list. You can also fix a spot's coordinates afterwards.

A second mid-trip or one remembered late at night — may Tabifu keep gently weaving your lifelog.
