Your camera roll already knows
where you’ve been

What photos store

If camera location was on, the photo file holds GPS coordinates and a date. Photos received via messaging apps or re-saved from editors often have the location stripped.

Where to start

1. Use your gallery’s Places view to pick one photo per trip
2. Work backwards from recent trips, while memories are sharp
3. Leave photo-less old trips for last, logged by decade

When you don’t know the date

"A family trip sometime in the 2010s" is enough. Painting doesn’t need a date; record as much as you remember.

Doing it in the app

1

From photos

Choose From photos under Where next in Korea Visited to find and paint areas from photo location and date. Photos never leave your device. One photo at a time is free; reading many at once unlocks with one ad.

2

Choose how precise the date is

Under When on the visit card, pick Date, Month, Year, Decade or Unsure. Even Unsure is painted and counted.
