  1. 5/5Great app that could some new features

    This app has been around for years (I’ve been using it since 2017,) and the fact that it still works on modern OSes and models is a minor miracle and justifies it’s relatively high price tag. This app is great—it inspires me to go down streets I’ve never been in my hometown, travel via new methods, and when visiting a new place, helps me stay pleasantly lost, rather than hopelessly so. That said, its feature set hasn’t really changed in all those years, and given that this app is now a decade old, I think some new features would be warranted. Chiefly, I think there needs to be some “re-fog” option (say, at 5-10 years, or even an adjustable setting with the time frame of your choice) so you can see where you have been at one time, but not recently. Cities especially are constantly changing and I don’t think an area should always indefinitely look like it’s been explored—I don’t really want to impact my explored stats, mind you, but I do want to see where I haven’t been in a while (maybe implement it as an optional layer or onion-skinning feature, or a heat map view—the competing app World Uncovered has a feature to show how often you visit places, so that might be another way of doing it, although if you mostly track for new spots it would be of limited utility versus a fading mechanism.)

  2. 5/5Great app - fantastic for exploration!

    Please read the entire review! This app is great and one-of-a-kind: any similar apps in terms if tracking require a subscription fee that is simply not worth it. Yes, a $30 price is expensive at first, but it is absolutely worth it. As someone who travels VERY often, it’s so cool to be able to see everywhere I visit. I’ve been using the app for 6 months now, and can speak on its functionality. I would say the cons are as follows: phone battery drain will be noticeable (I lose ~10% through FOW on a 14 Pro Max), if you forget to load the app every once in a while tracking will stop, and it is difficult to remove unwanted tracks. However, it needs to be taken into account that this app is 15 years old (meaning it has a history and is unlikely to be deleted). Furthermore, there are external websites and tools to delete unwanted lines (or add if you want). At the end of the day, it comes down to this: if you are interested in seeing your map fill up, it’s worth it. Whenever I go for a drive, boat ride, or hike, I am always conscious of not only tracking potentially new lines, but exploring new places and seeing new sights! If you have $30 to spend, it’s better than any game you will ever play as an adult!

  3. 5/5Simple and fun

    I downloaded this app the day I moved to New York City about a year ago. It’s fascinating to see how much of the city I’ve explored, and it’s fun to level up by “un-fogging” more. It makes you truly realize how much - and how little - you’ve explored of this big world of ours. I always had an adventurous spirit and like to spend my days off exploring, and this app helps me by showing me places I still haven’t been to so I’m not aimlessly hopping on a train and somehow finding myself surrounded by the same familiar sights as any creature of habit would. I find myself leaving the house more and just walking the streets in places I never would have known about Unless this app didn’t subtly bring to my attention that I’d never been THERE before. I even find myself taking the scenic route home from work just because I haven’t unforced that one block a quarter mile away. I’m walking more just to make sure I don’t lose signal in the tunnels of the MTA, and I’m seeing sides of this city I never even knew existed. After one year, a few trips to Virginia, and a couple road trips to the mid-west, I’m just over level 100 and it feels like a cool accomplishment. And I haven’t even left the US with this app yet! And the best part is that all your fog data is saved to iCloud, so when I upgraded to the new Xs Max I didn’t have to start all over, I just picked up right where I left off. This App is fabulous in every way I can imagine. It’s so perfectly executed, and does exactly what you’d want it to do and then some. I recommend it to everyone, especially those who travel a lot and want to keep track of all the places they’ve been. I hardly ever write reviews but this is an exception because I think everyone should have this app and it’s worth every single penny I payed for it. Please, do yourself a favor and download this as soon as you can. You really won’t regret it!

  4. 5/5Amazing App, A Few Additions Needed!

    I love this app and have been addicted for the past few months. I’ve been using programs on my computer to add past trips and it’s so much fun. I would love if a few more features were added, including regions of countries! For instance, I’d love to be able to see my explored area in square kilometers and percentage traveled in each of the 50 US states, Canadian provinces, Australian territories, etc. A bit more detailed information about there you’ve been would be great, including a way to view a list of your top countries ranked from most-visited to least-visited, maybe a list of the cities you’ve traveled to (if you made it within city boundaries on the map, it would count on your list), and maybe an additional page on the app that has a general checklist of popular sights/attractions around the world - if you visit one, it would check off on your list. I also would really appreciate a way to erase areas of your map - like an eraser tool or something. Many times I’m traveling and the GPS messes up and it’s very annoying having to import my tracks to my computer to fix them. More ways to fix/edit tracks would be awesome!! All in all, an amazing app and I will continue using it for many years to come!!!

  5. 4/5Pretty good app that needs some QOL changes.

    App works how you expect. There is fog all around you. Move around and uncover it like an old video game. It stays uncovered. Love it. However. A few things I think would not only be easy to implement, but would also increase the QOL greatly. - let user make pins wherever they happen to be, and attach notes/pictures to it. Even if it was as simple as a note/picture attached to a user manually dropped pin at a location. Would be huge. - no reason I can see for orientation to be locked to north I think. Would like to see the pin, your icon while you’re moving, be going and facing the same direction in the app as you are in real life. Like almost all other map applications do. - I think it would be very easy to implement a way to organize and sort your trips by date, or organize and sort them at the very least via when you turned on and off the tracking. Meaning I wanna see not only my entire map, but have the option to see what I drove, say, yesterday, stand out from the rest of the tracking data. Other than those small issues. It’s a great fun app and I think what you can get out of it justifies the price tag if you are the type of person to consistently use it. However, I also think to do to that price tag, that users should have a decent say in what goes on in the app. I e, I would like to hear back about my suggestions! Thanks for reading!
