All data is kept local on your device and syncs privately across your Apple devices via iCloud. Free app with total privacy - no subscriptions, no logins, no data collection, no analysis, no ads, no social sharing - just for your private enjoyment. The app supports exporting and importing your travel history as a ZIP file containing CSVs and copies of your added photos. MAP: Interactive map with all your visited places as custom pins. Add places by pointing on the map, searching by location name (e.g. a city), or detecting locations from photos in your photo library or shared albums.
