Stamped – Travel Map Tracker (Explore the World and Show Off Them)

Can people add old trips to their map? Otherwise, this is more of a "where I took my phone since installing this app", not a full journal of lifetime travel. I'd also recommend offering a native or web app, so people who have collected photos over the years can upload them from a variety of devices, not just their phone.

I know that would conflict with your idea of a trip being "genuine", but that honestly seems like a silly feature to me. I'd love a journal/photo album organized by location and time, but having some app act as an authority to whether or not I'm lying about my travel? That simply doesn't seem important.

And like the travelling garden gnome, it shows where your phone has been. Good idea though.

Ah, yes, a former co-worker was one of the guys who stole a gnome for some travel and made national news with it in the 90s. Amusing anecdotes, to be sure.

Thanks for your feedback Dave. Yeah this is definitely something I have been comtemplating whether it should be like genuine or a record free for anyone to add their old trips. I'll have a think about this and maybe we will still allow user to add their old trips but just in a different structure/format. Thanks for your feedback!
