Store description excerpt
For people who collect places. You travel somewhere, find a coffee shop worth remembering, and want it findable next time. Or you're planning a trip and want to pin everywhere worth going before you leave. Whereto handles both, without the account / login / tracking machinery every other app insists on. TRIPS are itineraries. Multiple cities, optional dates, a pin for every place you plan to visit or have visited. Mark them visited as you go. Watch the colour-coded pip strip on the home card fill up. LISTS are open-ended. One city, no dates, an ongoing collection. "Tokyo udon shops worth coming back to." "Wedding venues in Sicily." "Coffee in Lisbon that isn't a bica." NINE CATEGORIES Food, Coffee, Bars, Things to do, Shopping, Park / Nature, Stay, Transport, Other. Each one is a colour. Once you've used the app a few times the system reads at a glance — you don't have to label-read a map. SEARCH AND PIN Search Google Places for a pin, or long-press the map and drop one yourself. Photos, hours and rating come in from Google automatically. Tag a category, mark visited, write a note. Swipe a row to mark visited or delete. Both are unambiguous. SHARING Share a trip by tap-to-open link via Messages, AirDrop, email. The person you sent it to taps the link and the trip opens — even if they don't have Whereto installed they can preview the pins; install to import. Or share collaboratively over iCloud. Family members edit the same trip live. No invite codes, no link-management, no bullshit. PRIVACY No accounts. No login. No servers. No tracking SDKs. Whereto stores your data in your private iCloud. The only outbound network traffic is to Google Places when you actively search for a place by name — and Google sees a developer API key, not anything that identifies you. DESIGN Brutalist editorial. Berkeley Mono on the data surfaces, sharp corners everywhere, ink-on-paper in light mode, near-black in dark. Built for legibility at speed, not visual decoration. IMPORT EXISTING MAPS Already keep places in Google My Maps? Export your map as KML or KMZ, then pick the file in Whereto Settings → Import. Whereto reads your layers as categories and your folders as cities. WHO IT'S FOR People who travel deliberately. People who keep restaurant lists. People who want a private, brutalist alternative to Google Maps' "saved" list — fine for one coffee shop, falls apart the moment you want structure. NOT FOR Tour booking. Restaurant reservations. Navigation (Whereto hands off directions to Google Maps when you actually need to go somewhere). Anyone hoping for streaks, badges, or push notifications about places you "might like". Made by Mark Catanzariti under the direction of Catherine Butler. Built because the app she wanted didn't exist.
