■ The moment you think, "I want to go there." A shop you passed on a walk. A place featured on TV. A restaurant you saw on social media, or one a friend told you about. Save those "I want to go" moments the instant they strike, and you can always look back later and turn them into your next outing. Ikitee is your own list for the places you want to go. Once you've been, record the date and a quick note. All your data stays on your device — no login or sign-up required, so you can start the moment you download it. ■ Great for - Quickly saving a shop you notice on a walk - Jotting down a place or restaurant you saw featured on TV - Stashing a shop you found on social media before you forget - Keeping the spots friends recommend as your regular haunts - Picking where to go today from the list you've built - Marking where you parked, or a meetup point at an event, with Location Memo ■ Save from right where you are Passed an interesting shop on a walk? Nearby places show up sorted by distance, so you can save one-handed as you stroll — filtered by food, shopping, leisure, and more. Or search by name or place and tap a result: the name, address, location, and phone fill in automatically. You can also open the map and tap a spot directly, or import a place you found in Google Maps from its share sheet. Almost no typing. ■ Parking spots and meetups — Location Memo One tap saves exactly where you are. A date-stamped name, the address, and a "Location Memo" tag fill in automatically — great for remembering where you parked, or marking a meetup point at a festival or event. Share it by link or 2D code to send the spot to a friend. ■ A record of the places you've been Add a date and a one-line note as many times as you like — a nice log of your favorite haunts, too. ■ Find it later with tags and search Tag suggestions come straight from the search result; tap to organize. Search across names, addresses, memos, and tags. Tap the map to open it in Maps, or jump to the phone or the place's website. Send a favorite to a friend by link or 2D code, and they can import it right into their list. ■ Transfer with confidence Export and import all your data as a single file — handy when you switch phones. From restaurants and cafes to leisure, shopping, and sightseeing — save any kind of place you want to go. Available in Japanese and English (switchable in the app).
