This app transforms your travel history and future plans into a detailed, interactive map where you can mark countries, regions/provinces, and cities you’ve visited or plan to visit — all in one unified view. As you add places, the map updates instantly, giving you a clear and satisfying visual record of your history. Unlike traditional travel trackers that stop at country borders, this app lets you capture the true depth of your travels. Whether you’ve explored an entire country, a single region, or just one city, your map reflects it accurately. Key Features • Track countries, regions/provinces, and cities • Mark places as visited or planned • One seamless, continuously updating world map • Visual progress that grows as you explore • Clean, focused design built for travelers Regional Coverage Regional and provincial data is actively expanding.

Upcoming updates will introduce user accounts, making it possible to: • Share your travel map with friends • Compare travel stats and progress • Explore where you’ve been together

Your wanders, on one living globe. Wandrd is a travel tracker built around one idea: every country you've visited should live somewhere you can spin and fill in over time. Tap to add a visit, write a few lines about what made the trip, and watch your world light up. In the app • A globe that rotates, zooms, and lights up every country you've ticked off • Country detection that quietly notices when you cross a border • Stories: dates, a short note, and a year-by-year timeline • Travel stats: world completion, continents, streaks, favourite continent • Country detail: distance, flight time, climate by month, capital, currency • Wishlist and home base, so days abroad and distance from home just work No sign-up. Just start. Wandrd works without an account. Track your wanders straight away on the device you have. Add an account later if you want to sync across devices or back up. Your data stays yours.
