Pick a city walk. Collect the places you visit. Keep a souvenir of your day. Passported helps you turn a walk into a collection of places and a keepsake you can share. A Charm is a digital collectible for a place you actually visit. Your collection groups these places into city Globes. FIND YOUR FIRST FREE WALK • Start as a guest and explore before linking an account • Use Nearby with location access, or browse destinations without it • Pick a 20, 45 or 90 minute walking-time budget • Preview a pedestrian route from available places, then choose Start • Save a walk for later and reopen a fresh route preview when you are ready Existing-place walk planning is free and uses no Discovery Tokens. Coverage depends on the available places in each destination. A time budget is a planning guide; actual walking time and access conditions can vary. Previewing another city does not unlock its collectibles before you arrive. COLLECT THE PLACES YOU VISIT • Follow your ordered stops and see the next walking leg • Claim a Charm when your location can be verified at the place • Continue the same outing or make a keepsake after a successful claim • Reopen a device-saved active walk after closing the app • Save a recap when you finish, see your collected stops and preview another nearby walk Claims need location access, a sufficiently accurate recent fix and a connection. A device-saved walk or recap is separate from your account's collection. KEEP A SOUVENIR OF YOUR DAY • Make a basic keepsake free • Add collected Charms, a photo and a short message • Choose a layout, save your keepsake and use the system share options • Reopen a saved memory to share it again OPTIONAL PASSPORTED PLUS Preview additional keepsake designs before choosing Plus. Members can use the additional designs and view their collection's known rarity and progress. The app shows the benefits, local price and billing period of available offers. Monthly and annual subscriptions renew unless cancelled. Other available digital purchases are shown separately. Location is requested when you choose Nearby or need to validate a claim. Optional nearby alerts and product analytics have their own choices. You can browse destinations and begin exploring as a guest.
