I decided to create Pinsets on a trip to New York. I just wanted to draw a box on the map and find recommended pizza places in that area, but no apps worked that way. So, when I got back, I wrote my own. It's so easy now to share a list of ice cream shops, or mailboxes, or pretty murals. I also find it handy around town to keep track of places, even where I parked my car.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Pinsets at none against TripDoc's 6. Pinsets also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and review sentiment (100% vs 88%). TripDoc's advantage is update cadence (every 9 days vs every 4 months) and ratings volume (27 vs 2). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Pinsets holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7.
