This app makes no sense. Isn't it supposed to show locations near me for good photo opportunities? That was my impression from the description. It completely failed. It was showing places 300+ miles away. And I live in the 5th largest US city, so something should come up near me. I couldn't figure out how to show me locations in my area. Isn't that the point!? This app was showing me random locations that made no correlation to where I was. Complete waste. Uninstall.

I have travelled many places and I'm always looking for that hidden gem. Something that's not in the travel books. When I found Explorest, I was over the moon for the amazing places. During the last year, I haven't travelled much, but I used the app to make a list of places that I want to visit in the coming month. So excited for this.

Honnestly the concept and graphic design of the app are really good. The main issue is the lack of spots. It's down to a good diversity of contries, but way way behind competitors like Locationscout. Still, the quality of the shots is better, but I wished after 3 years of using it, that much more content creators would join the app ! Hopefully it will keep doing better in the future !
