About

Tabering

Read full description

Tabering is a restaurant tracker and food map. Every place you eat at stays on your map, photos and all. Keep the places you loved and the places you want to try side by side. YOUR PLACES BECOME A PHOTO MAP Places you save appear as round pins on the map. Add a photo to a visit, and the pin becomes that photo. See where you ate what at a glance. LOG LUNCH OR DINNER IN ONE TAP At a place? Tap “Went Today.” You can add photos, a rating, notes and who you went with. The calendar fills up with each day’s photos, so you can look back on any meal out. AFTER SUNSET, A MAP OF LIGHTS When the sun goes down, the map switches to night on its own, and your places glow like lanterns. You can also switch between Lunch and Dinner with one tap. CAN’T DECIDE? DRAW ONE Not sure where to go today? Tap Draw to get Today’s Pick from your saved places and places nearby. Not feeling it? Draw again. FIND A NEW PLACE AND SAVE IT Search the map and save a place right away. The map shows only places to eat, so you can also tap a place nearby and save it on the spot. It works as your want-to-go list, too. MY PLACES, IN PHOTOS Browse the places you’ve saved as a photo list. Filter by category, rating or distance. PLUS, YOUR FRIENDS’ MAPS Create a group with family or friends in Groups, and the places they’ve been show up on your map too. Follow their footprints: who went where and when, with photos. Photos are visible only to members of the same group. Friends can join from the invite message you send them. START WITHOUT SIGNING UP No account needed to get started. Later, you can move your data to an email address or your Apple Account, so you’re ready when you switch phones. PREMIUM (monthly auto-renewing subscription) - Every place shows a photo on map pins, in List and in Log (free plan: all places for the first 7 days, then your 3 most recent places and any place you open) - Up to 10 photos per visit (free plan: 1) - No ads - No limit on saved places (free plan: starts at 15 and grows up to 30 as you use the app) - Draw again as many times as you like (free plan: up to 3 draws a day, with more by watching a video) Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase.
