Keep only the places you love, on a map of your own. The bar a friend showed you. The park you found on your own. The island you've always wanted to see. sukiba is a simple travel journal where you mark places you want to visit with a heart, and places you've actually been with a star. ■ Want it & Been there Write "I want to go there" in a note, and you'll forget it. Pin it on a map, and you'll remember the next time you're nearby. Once you've actually been, the heart turns into a star. ■ Trails Every step you take becomes a line on the map. Even a quick stop gets recorded — look back later, and the whole day comes back to you. ■ Groups (in-app purchase) Up to 8 people, 8 colors. Whose want-to-go, whose been-there — the color tells you before anyone has to explain. Build one shared map with family or friends. ■ Discover Not sure where to go next in an unfamiliar city? Browse favorite places from around the world by genre or country. Someone else's want-to-go becomes yours. ■ My Lists Organize your saved places back into your own words, whenever you like. Make as many travel notebooks as you want. ■ Conquest Passport The more places you've been, the more prefectures and countries color in on your map — the same feeling as filling a page in a paper passport, every time you travel. Location is private by default. Saved places and trails stay invisible to everyone unless you choose to share them. Background location tracking requires a separate, clear permission. Saved places, trails, photos, and group data can all be permanently deleted by you, anytime, from Settings. The Groups feature is unlocked via a one-time in-app purchase (¥300 / regional equivalent).

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Sukiba at every 4 days against Marunouchi Shuttle's every 10 months. Marunouchi Shuttle's advantage is iOS requirement (16.0 vs 18.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
