About

Wandr

Wandr turns the world into a map you uncover by living in it. The map starts dark. As you move through the real world — on foot, by car, by bike — Wandr quietly reveals the places you pass through. No checking in, no tagging; just go, and your map fills in. Come back a year from now and you'll see the real shape of your life: every neighborhood, every road trip, every walk to the coffee shop. Save the places that matter, build day streaks, and compare your map with friends if you want to. Everything lives on your iPhone — no ads, no trackers, no account. Requires Always location access so the map can keep revealing while the app is in the background.

GeoFog turns everyday walks into visible progress on your map. EXPLORE Reveal streets from the fog as you walk. Record journeys, see your explored area, and revisit your progress. Explore mode keeps your route history and fog on your device. FRONTIERS Sign in to capture territory by walking closed loops. Territory can change hands when a later capture covers it. The mode includes simulated competitors. Nearby rankings reflect the visible arena; country and global rankings are simulated benchmarks. START AT YOUR OWN PACE A guided introduction helps you choose a manageable first walk and watch an illustrated map demo. You decide when to start and stop recording. Steps are measured when Motion access is available; otherwise the app labels them as estimates. PREMIUM ACCESS App features require an active subscription or eligible free trial.
