Learn every country and capital the way your brain actually remembers geography: by touching the map, not picking from a list. Each question drops you on a real, pannable world map and asks you to find the place yourself. Spatial memory makes it stick, and it feels like play. TAP THE MAP, NOT A LIST No multiple choice. No flashcards. Find the country, its capital, its flag or one of its cities on a live, zoomable map. Correct answers light up, and misses show you where you went, so every wrong tap teaches you something. QUIZZES THAT LEARN YOU MapIt watches which places you've seen and which ones keep slipping. Every round deals you fresh countries first, then the ones you're still mastering, with enough you already know to keep it flowing. Your path to all 194 is yours alone. FIVE WAYS TO PLAY • Find the Country: tap the country you're asked for • Find the Capital: name the country a capital belongs to • Countries & Capitals: a mixed round that tests both • Flags: see a flag, tap its country • Major Cities: find capitals and big cities on the world map, or one continent at a time Difficulty climbs as you do, from the world's most familiar places to its most obscure. Score 70% to unlock the next tier. CHOOSE YOUR CHALLENGE Easy gives you a second chance on every question. Medium is one clean shot. Hard puts you on a ten-second clock. Same map, three very different games. GO DEEPER THAN COUNTRIES Pick a country and keep going: learn its major cities in a quiz ladder that grows from five to fifteen as you master each level, or take on all fifty US states and every Canadian province. START FREE WITH 50 COUNTRIES Explore all five continents with a free set of 50 countries. Learn Europe, then Africa, then Asia, at your own pace and with no account required. UNLOCK THE WHOLE WORLD, ONCE A single, one-time purchase opens all 194 countries, with their capitals, flags and cities, forever. No subscription. No ads. Restore anytime on a device signed in to the same store account. The entire atlas ships inside the app; there are no map servers to pay for, which is how MapIt stays one fair price instead of a subscription. WORKS ANYWHERE, OFFLINE Every map, border, flag and city is bundled in the app. No connection needed: study on a plane, on the subway, or anywhere the signal drops. IN YOUR LANGUAGE MapIt speaks English, German, Spanish, French, Italian and Brazilian Portuguese, down to every country, capital and city name. EXPLORE MODE Roam the map freely and tap any country to see its name, capital, and region, with a smooth fly-to animation. Perfect for studying before a quiz, or just satisfying your curiosity. SEE YOUR PROGRESS My Stats shows how much of the world you've explored, your recent form, your answer speed, and a continent-by-continent breakdown. Per-country accuracy points you straight at what to work on next, and comeback wins celebrate the countries you finally cracked. Earn achievement badges as you master the map, and reset anytime to start fresh. BUILT TO STAY OUT OF YOUR WAY • No ads, ever • No account, no sign-in • Three themes: Light, Colorful, and Dark • Haptic and audio feedback you can toggle off • Your settings and progress stay on your device Optional, anonymous analytics and crash reporting help us fix bugs and improve MapIt, and you can turn all of it off any time in Settings, under Privacy & Data. No personal information is collected, no ads are shown, and nothing is ever sold.
