Geodesic helps you explore and visualize your personal footprint, track visited countries, and log daily locations — all while protecting your privacy. Unlocking spots is so satisfying — even on daily routes, you'll want to fill in those map gaps and explore more. - Intuitive Activity Map View: Browse your location history and visit records on an interactive map, quickly reviewing your movement trail for any given day. - Automatic Visit Detection: Automatically organizes stop points into visit records, helping you understand when and where you stayed (work, home, tourist spots, etc.). - Visit & Record Editing: Directly correct inaccurate stay durations or locations, and merge or split visit records to better reflect your real-world experience. - Reverse Geocoding: Converts coordinates into readable addresses or place names, making it easy to identify visited locations (country / city / landmark). - Country & Geographic Classification: Automatically tags locations with their corresponding country, supporting quick filtering and statistics (e.g., viewing visit counts by country). - Import & Export: Easily export raw tracks or organized visit lists, or import JSON files from other services — great for sharing and backup. - iCloud Sync & Backup Options: Optionally use iCloud to sync data across devices, with built-in backup functionality to prevent data loss. - Local-First, Privacy-Focused: Your data lives primarily on your device or iCloud (under your control) — the app never force-uploads your location to third-party servers. - Performance & Battery Optimization: Optimized for long-term location logging to minimize battery drain and storage overhead. - History Search & Filtering: Quickly search and filter past records by date, location, country, or custom tags. - Map Export & Sharing Interface: Generate shareable map views or export files in just a few steps — perfect for sharing with friends or creating personal backups. - Multilingual & Localization Support: The interface uses localized strings to deliver a great experience for users across different languages. Example use cases: - Travel Review: Quickly look up your trip routes, stop locations, and dates as a personal memory or to share with others. - Private Journal: Use visit detection and editing to build an accurate log of your daily routines without relying on third-party services. - Data Integration: Import historical tracks from other services, let Geodesic automatically clean and categorize them, and get a clean, usable visit list.
