A social app that lets you record daily moments on a map using your location. Post text, photos, videos, audio, and route history along with your current location. You can fine-tune visibility for each post—public, private, specific people only, or limited to servers you belong to. Revisit past records in Archive, create dedicated timelines with friends via Servers, and bundle multiple posts into a single Clip. In the Explore tab, move the map to choose a place and tap “Search this area” to show nearby pins. Built-in translation lets you comfortably browse posts from overseas. Trips, everyday footprints, and memories with friends—on a single map.
