This app is a great tool for those moving into or visiting a new area. As you explore and find places you like, you can remember where they are by dropping a pin then add a description and photo. Whether it be a great bar, restaurant or winery, you will always be able to remember what it looked like and get directions back there. Personally, I like updating the notes with names of people and places associated with each location so that when I go back I can address them by name.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

OnlyDeaf holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: OnlyDeaf has 13 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Where Was That?'s written reviews are positive against 64% of OnlyDeaf's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Where Was That? ships an update every 3 months, OnlyDeaf every 4 days. The most recent releases landed on October 9, 2026 and October 13, 2026 respectively.
