Pinned places: Your world, one dot at a time

Most travel apps ask you to plan. littledots also likes to look back. Every trip you pin drops a dot on your world map. Over time the map fills in, one country at a time, and starts to read like a diary you didn’t realize you were keeping.

What counts as a place

Any trip you tracked, but also any spot on the map you care to remember. The map doesn’t distinguish between an eight-day Kyoto trip and a lunchtime stop in a town you passed through. They’re both dots. The dot is the point.

Your trips

Your planned trip you came back from. A weekend drive. A three-hour airport layover you want credit for. A friend’s wedding two towns over. Pin any past or future trip and it shows up on the map.

Other places

If you wanna track other countries you’ve been to you can always just drop a pin, give it a name, it’s on the map. No need to spin them up as full trips.

Countries fill in, not just pins

Each dot pulls in its country. Pin Lisbon and Portugal lights up on the map. Pin Belém a week later and the country stays lit; the pin joins the cluster. The Awards tab keeps score: countries, continents, and a slow-growing percentage of days you’ve spent on the road.

The satisfying part isn’t the number. It’s opening the map in a year and seeing regions you forgot you’d been to.

Start with one

Pick somewhere you’ve already been. Pin it. That’s your first dot. Everything else is just doing that again.
