### 2/5 — Good, but…

*2025-09-17, version 3.5*

Voyage needs a better looking map. Larger and more detailed.

### 3/5 — Good app

*2025-02-14*

Good app, but we’re unable to delete/edit our favorite country, which is kind of a bummer. The regions of some countries are also unavailable.

**Developer response:** Hello, you can change your favourite country in "More" -> "Favourite country". We are gradually adding the regions of all countries in the world: please, email us at contact@gdg.international to let us know what countries you wish we add first.

### 3/5 — Average

*2025-01-25*

Just like all other apps or forms. The united kingdom is not a country.

**Developer response:** The United Kingdom is a member of the UN, unlike Scotland/Wales/England/North Ireland. 

However, you can consider the 4 constituent countries separately in More -> Countries and Territories

### 3/5 — Missing Sri Lanka

*2024-09-11*

The app is missing Sri Lanka. It is also difficult to select multiple countries

**Developer response:** Hello, the update with the map of Sri Lanka is now available. We would be happy if you could update your review. Thank you !

### 3/5 — Good app

*2024-07-21*

Good app, but we’re not able to delete/edit our list of travels on the app, which is kind of a bummer

**Developer response:** Hello, the new update should have fixed this issues. We would be happy if you could update your review. Thank you !

### 3/5 — Greta but a few tweaks needed

*2024-02-16*

I love this app so much but I wish I could edit and/or delete stuff in the “My Trips” section

**Developer response:** Hello, the new update should have fixed this issues. We would be happy if you could update your review. Thank you !

### 4/5 — Great app just one thing

*2023-08-13, version 3.0.1*

It’s a good app they just need to add somaliland

### 4/5 — Good

*2023-07-22, version 2.3*

Very cool just add a couple more updates

### 4/5 — Official VoyageX Review

*2022-12-07*

VoyageX is a brilliant app, that lets you look at all the places that you have been to, as well as their flags. A very basic app. Something that is important in the limelight, and can keep track of your adventures. The free parts of the app is enough to fulfill your needs, but if you pay extra, you will have access to a whole bunch of new, and different maps, heritage sites, etc. App is not glitchy, opens as soon as you click, and is easy to add new countries, or take away country’s from your list. It also tally’s up the number of countries you have been to, as well as organize them in all sorts of ways. However, they could’ve moved some parts of the app that costed money to the free zone.
Rating: 9.4/10

### 2/5 — Only 1 favorite country even with paid version

*2022-10-11*

Bought the paid version because it says it unlocks all the country maps but it still only allows you to have one favorite country.

**Developer response:** Hello, 
you unlock all maps if you buy the pro version. Just touch the country in the main list and you can add the regions for every country. 
The favorite one is just to make it easier to see your favorite country, but all maps are indeed unlocked.
If you need assistance, please email us at contact@gdg.international

### 4/5 — Great app!

*2022-07-14*

I love VoyageX, but my only improvement - I would love an interactive world map! It’s just a little too small on a phone screen and I’d like to be able to zoom

**Developer response:** Hello!
You can now zoom in the map !

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2021-09-23*

Best travel app ever!!

### 5/5 — Essentiel

*2021-08-16*

Meilleure application a avoir. Très utile pour suivre sa progression et super utile pour découvrir les patrimoines mondiaux de l’UNESCO près de chez nous.

### 5/5 — Very detailed and thorough

*2021-07-22*

Enables you to “scratch off” every country, territory & region in the world.

Includes all the UK counties which is cool, as well as the Channel Islands and overseas territories.

Very easy to use, and the map looks cool when you turn turn phone sideways.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2021-05-26*

I’ve been using an Excel spreadsheet and this is SO much nicer!

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2021-03-04, version 2.2*

This is the best game ever I love it

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Not accurate

*2025-05-01*

Not accurate. Doesn’t list all the countries. As someone who enjoys country counting it’s pretty useless if it’s not counting. There’s better, apps out there. Deleted and downloaded other country counting apps

**Developer response:** Hello, what countries are we not listing ? We list all the UN members, plus observer states. In the options, you can add territories and a few unrecognized countries to be also counted as “countries”. Please, contact us at contact@gdg.international to let us know more

### 1/5 — Kinda dumb…..

*2025-02-26, version 3.0*

All you can do with this app is select countries.  The maps is tiny and hardly legible.

### 1/5 — Doesn't save

*2024-02-21*

It saves only first three countries and after that each time I start the app the countries are reset to those three.

### 1/5 — Awful map

*2023-01-16*

I’d give 5 stars if I can zoom the world map. Otherwise I cannot see where I went in Europe, SE Asia, etc. (region which has small countries

**Developer response:** Hello,
you can now zoom in the map.
We would be glad if you could update your review. Thank you !

### 1/5 — Cowards

*2020-02-27*

You guys removed Taiwan from the map of China. Even if Taiwan is turned of as a disputed territory, it is still not shown up as part of China in the world map as it used to be. I respect freedom of speech, but I think such a major change should be listed in the details of the update. Why not? It is obviously not a bug or improvement. Are you guys afraid of anything?? Cowards

**Developer response:** Hello,
It was indeed a bug which we have now fixed. Please update your review.
Thanks

### 1/5 — Deceptive Description

*2019-10-26*

The app description says "mark on the map countries you have visited, select the regions..."  What it doesn't say is to select the regions you have to pay $5 for the Pro version.
"Read the descriptions" - cue link to a wikipedia page about that country .
"...how many World Heritage Sites you had the chance to visit..." Again, this is only in the Pro version.
The information at the bottom of the description talks about some items available only with the Pro Version implying everything else is free and just those items are at an additional cost.
I have no issue paying for additional features within apps but I do have a problem with being provided with misleading information about what you do and don't receive in an app.

**Developer response:** We are sorry you found the description deceptive, but it is explicitly said what features are not available in the free version. 

The description of the app reads:
“Fea­tures like ad­di­tio­nal coun­try maps, World He­ri­tages Sites and ad­ding more than 5 trips are avai­lable only in the Pro Ver­sion that needs to be pur­cha­sed se­pa­ra­te­ly. Al­ter­na­ti­ve­ly you can pur­chase a single map for a lo­wer price.”

We kindly ask you to edit your review to show a fair and accurate comment.
Thank you

### 1/5 — Map selects unvisited countries

*2019-09-17, version 1.8.2*

South America shows 0 for me yet the map selects a country, same with the Dominican Rep.

### 1/5 — WILL DELETE

*2019-08-05*

THE UNITED KINGDOM IS NOT ONE COUNTRY IT IS MADE UP OF FOUR  COUNTRIES SCOTLAND ENGLAND IRELAND AND WALES

**Developer response:** Hello,
the default countries are the UN members. While the U.K. is formed by 4 constitutive countries, it is a single sovereign country.
We will nevertheless add the option to consider the 4 constitutive counties separately, but you can already select them in the detail map of the U.K.

### 1/5 — Inaccurate

*2019-01-31, version 1.7*

It highlighted Greenland, even though it wasn’t checked...and in fact not even on the the list!  Also, no Antarctica.

### 1/5 — Simplistic

*2018-12-13*

I don’t get this app!  It took me 5 minutes to check off the countries I visited. For $3.99 I got the pro version and the only added feature allowed me to add World Heritage Sites. This and all travel maps would be more interesting if there were interactive features like cities, notes on what you liked, favorite hotels, sites or restaurants, printing maps, 3D and portability to a art function so I can print the world in other forms. Come on guys. I’m deleting and will see about other options. $3.99 ill-spent

### 5/5 — It’s easy to use and good

*2026-03-26*

I’ve tried various apps, but this one is the best it looks the nicest and the most flexible.
I’d be happy to pay for it, but I’d love a feature where I can add several photos from countries I’ve visited and make notes. Alternatively, something similar for world heritage sites would be great.

### 5/5 — Report a bug & some ideas

*2025-05-01*

The BEST app for countries collection!
There are still a little bit space to improve:
1 - a bug: Jamaica cannot be greened in the map even though added to the travelled list.
2 - please consider add Guernsey, Jersey, and Isle of Man.
3 - please consider set St Helena, Ascension, Tristan da Cunha as three individual countries, they have their own flags.
Thanks so much for making this amazing app better!

Updates: thank you so much for solving the issue for Jamaica. There are several ideas for you to consider:
1- I still think the British Crown Dependencies should be separated from UK, just like the other British territories. Please consider adding them three (or at least give users an option to activate/deactivate them in the countries and territories section).
2- I noticed that Aruba and Curaçao are categorized to South America, while I agree that they are geographically located in South America, traditionally they are treated as part of North America. Please consider to move them to North America to be consistent with Trinidad and Tobago (also located in South but is now categorized as North America country).
3- Is it possible for you to add Bonaire, Saba, and Sint Eustatius? I understand they don’t possess the same status as Aruba and Curaçao, but still love to see them in the collection.

**Developer response:** Hello,

The Jamaica bug should have been fixed. You can add Guernsey, Jersey and Isle of Man in the detail section of the UK.

We will consider separating St Helena, Ascension and Tristan da Cunha in a future update. Thank you !

### 5/5 — UNESCO update?

*2024-09-22*

Live the app and use it often. Will you be adding the 2024 UNESCO sites soon please? Thank you

**Developer response:** Hello, the update with the new 2024 World Heritage sites is now available. We would be happy if you could update your review. Thank you !

### 5/5 — Great App

*2024-06-27*

I was very happy with this App before and I am even happier now.  I stopped using it for a couple of years (Covid years).  I just did an 8 country trip and tried to add the countries. I forgot how to use it 🤣. (The + sign was behind another icon on my devise) I wrote to the developer and I had a response straight away located the + and added the countries . So I thought I’ll write another review just to say thank you to the developer Gianni De Gennaro for this  very useful and very simple to use App.

### 5/5 — Très bien

*2023-12-19*

Très bien, dommage qu’il n’y est pas les îles française !

**Developer response:** Vous pouvez ajouter les îles françaises dans la section "regions" de la France ou vous pouvez considérer les îles comme des pays en les sélectionnant dans "Autre" -> "Pays et territoires"

### 5/5 — Brilliant App

*2023-10-24*

VoyageX is a great app to track the countries you have visited. All the functionality is very clear and easy to use. You can change the countries you visit to include Dependant Territories and Observer States in line with the UN classification you wish to follow. The inclusion of World Heritage Sites is also a bonus. I wish I had found this app sooner.

### 5/5 — A Literal Life Changer

*2023-08-09, version 3.0*

I cannot even say how long I have been looking for an app like this. I was just talking with my wife about how it is so hard to remember everywhere we have travelled throughout our marriage. When friends ask where we been I want to be able to pull out a map and show them. Finally, I have what I am looking for.

The app is clean, simple, and efficient. I showed it recent to one of my kids and he was super impressed too and said he would tell his friends about it (you know all of the kids seem to love travelling today). All in all I am just super happy to have an app like this for my Mac and I hope we see plenty of updates and continued devlelopment in the future!! Bravo!!

### 5/5 — Would recommend

*2023-05-21*

Very useful!

### 5/5 — Superb App for Continuing to Learn Geography!

*2022-06-17*

I discovered this app while looking for a world map method of displaying countries I’ve been to.  In that sense, the app is excellent, with a clear map that will color all countries selected from the list.  The flag feature is very attractive and useful as well, and the app is easy to use.  Moreover, there are even deeper layers of facts and knowledge to be acquired from this app…the intelligence behind it is profound, offering information about what are autonomous territories, states/provinces of countries, what does and does not constitute an independent country.  I started off with this app intending to be a show-off, and then found it to be immensely satisfying and helpful for my deep interest in geography.  It has not disappointed in any way, and I look forward not only to further travels to tabulate on it, but also further discoveries regarding this highly fascinating world we live in.
