How Does it Work?

You can select the countries you have been to, and then save or share a multitude of maps.

The globetrotters among you can take advantage of the world map, or maybe you just travelled Europe and you want a map for that? No problem, take advantage of the more localised Europe map (or any of the continents), or maybe narrow it down further to a specific area of Europe with the Northern Europe or Eastern Europe maps.

Not only can you record, save and share maps for countries, but you can do the same for the districts (counties, states etc.) and major cities of every country included in the app (assuming the country actually has districts).

There are 258 countries included in the app. You can show each individually by showcasing it's districts or cities...or show all the countries at once on a world map...or break them down into smaller groups such as one of the 7 continents or any of the 25 smaller subregions!

Once you have entered the countries you have been to, either through the provided lists, maps or search; you can then review the percentage of the World, continents and sub regions you have visited in the summary section contained in the drop down area of the World section on the front page.


Useful Travel Data

Apart from the maps you can generate, the app also provides useful and relevant travel information regarding each country in three main sections as shown below:
