Ratings and reviews

I like that this app is available. I just wish it was more flexible. For instance, being able to see regions of countries (states, provinces, etc.). It would also be nice if you could mark countries as places we have been and want to go back to. It would also be nice if it included all world heritage sites as locations, and it would be amazing if you could link photos to each place you have been

Pretty good app. Graphics are nice, and it doesn't seem to have performance issues. Would give the 5th star if the search function were better. For example, a search for "galapagos" returns nothing - not even a suggestion for Ecuador. Additionally, it would be great if there were tracking for states/provinces. For example, if you have been to 10/50 United States then you have seen 20% of the country. Every country for which states have been downloaded should be tracked this way. Tracking for continents and bodies of water (oceans, seas, lakes) would be nice too. When you zoom in very far, a pop-up suggesting to search for a city name appears. I wish this would stop showing up after you've already dismissed it once.

I've tried two other country tracking apps like this (been and one other) and this has been my favourite. Adding new countries is easy and I really like the multiple colours for keeping track of different standards of having been in a country (the app suggests you use them as been,lived,want, I prefer to use them as been,transited,booked). There are some curious subdivisions and no unrecognised territories are listed, but the definition of 'country' will always be somewhat arbitrary. A great app
