Tap any country on an interactive world map to mark it visited. Marco fills it in and keeps a running count against all 247 countries and territories. Drill into a country to mark individual states and provinces, or add specific cities you've visited, each with its own zoomed-in map. Haven't been somewhere yet? Add it to your wishlist with one tap, and come back to it whenever you're planning your next trip. STATS THAT ACTUALLY MEAN SOMETHING See your progress broken down by continent, country, state, and city — with real flags for every country, and for most states and provinces that have one. COMPARE WITH FRIENDS, PRIVATELY Sign in with Apple to see which of your contacts also use Marco and compare country counts. Marco only ever shows the countries you and a friend have both visited, never their full list; so there's always more to ask about next time you talk. Everything else works completely offline with no account at all. Signing in is only needed for the friends/leaderboard feature. WHAT'S TRACKED • Countries (247, with real flags) • States & provinces (with flags where one officially exists) • Cities you add yourself • Your wishlist of places you want to go
