About Pin the World: 3D Travel Map
Build a lifetime travel map, one pin at a time. Pin the World puts every place you've been on a spinning globe, stylised or realistic. Forgot a trip? Your photos remember: Pin the World can turn your geotagged pictures into suggested pins. Watch your world fill up, country by country. EXPLORE THE GLOBE The globe spins on its own, tilted like the real Earth. Every pin marks a place you've been, and their names line up on a ribbon below the globe that you can scroll through. • Drag the globe to turn it and explore any region. • Pinch to zoom in and out. • Tap land or ocean to zoom in on that part of the world and see how many places you've pinned there. • Tap a pin, or a name on the ribbon, to fly to that place and see its photos. • Tap the back button, or double-tap anywhere on the globe, to return to the spinning globe. • Pick your look: a clean stylised globe with crisp country borders and a latitude/longitude grid, or a realistic Earth. Both look great in Light and Dark Mode. PIN YOUR PLACES Build your own travel record, as simple or as detailed as you like. • Tap "Edit Places" to add, edit, or remove places. • Tap "+" to add a place: drop a pin on the map and the city and country are filled in for you, or type them in yourself. • Add the date of your visit and your own notes. • Attach up to 12 photos to each place. They appear above the globe whenever you visit that place; tap one to see it full screen and zoom in. • Select a place in the list to edit it, or swipe to remove it. FIND PLACES IN YOUR PHOTOS Pin the World looks at where and when your photos were taken, and groups your geotagged pictures into suggested places for you to review. • Each suggestion shows the place's name, when you were there, and a preview of your pictures. • Add a suggestion with a single tap and its photos come along, or open it in the editor to fine-tune it first. • Leave out your everyday area, around home and work, so only your trips show up. • Only look at photos taken after a date you choose, so a new scan picks up where the last one left off. • Access to your photo library is only requested when you open Find in Photos. TRACK YOUR PROGRESS See how far you've come: the number of places, countries, and continents you've visited, with a breakdown by continent and by country. Every country and every continent counts. Even the ones with just one pin are a reason to plan your next trip. SHARE YOUR WORLD • Record a movie of one full revolution of your globe, then share it with friends or save it to Photos (iPhone and iPad). • Send your places to another device with AirDrop, Messages, or Files. When you open them, choose whether to replace your places or merge them in. • Your photos stay with you: they are never included in a shared file. MAKE IT YOURS • Load 200 demo places to see what a well-traveled globe looks like, and remove them when you're ready to start your own. Demo places never count toward the free limit. • Wipe everything and start fresh at any time. • Reopen the quick guide any time from the toolbar. MADE FOR iPHONE, iPAD, AND MAC Pin the World adapts to every screen and window size. On iPad and Mac the place editor opens in a side panel next to the globe, so you can watch your pins appear as you add them. On Mac, browse a place's photos with the arrow keys. Available in English, Chinese (Simplified), French, German, Italian, Portuguese (Brazil), and Spanish. FREE TO TRY Pin the World is free to try with up to 30 places. When you reach the limit, you can keep using every feature with your 30 places, or unlock unlimited places with Pin the World Plus, a one-time purchase. No subscriptions. No ads. No account needed. Bought Pin the World before it became free? Unlimited places are already yours.
What’s new
Version 2.3 · Updated October 18, 2026
Ready for iPhone Duo. Pin the World adapts to every way you hold iPhone Duo. Folded, it works on the cover screen just like on any iPhone. Unfold it and your globe spreads across the full inner display. Fold it halfway and the app splits along the hinge: your spinning globe on one side, your list of places on the other, so the globe never bends across the crease. Stand it up like a tiny laptop and the globe sits above the fold while you browse and edit places below. The controls move out of the way too, giving the globe as much room as possible. Also new. The places list now shows when you last visited each place, and there's a new "Rate on the App Store" item in the menu if you'd like to tell us what you think. Plus smaller fixes and polish throughout.
