About this app

Your Places. Your Phone. Your Story.

Your phone is the most personal thing you own. You check it a hundred times a day. What do you see?

Cartogram turns the places that matter to you into stunning wallpapers made from real Google Maps data.

That street corner in Tokyo where you got lost and found the best ramen of your life. The beach where you got engaged. Your grandmother's neighborhood, eight thousand miles away. The city you're saving up to visit someday.

Start free. Upgrade when you're ready.

PERFECT FOR

The traveler who collects places like other people collect things. Every trip deserves more than a photo buried in your camera roll.

The dreamer who has a destination saved in their heart before it's saved in their calendar. Let your wallpaper be a daily reminder: you're going.

The one who's far from home. Sometimes you just need to see those familiar streets. A small comfort when home feels very far away.

The couple who knows exactly where it all started. That coffee shop. That park bench. That spot on the map where two stories became one.

The minimalist who wants a home screen as clean and intentional as everything else in their life. Beautiful maps. No clutter. Just meaning.

Ratings and reviews

Great idea, not great execution. Seems to have several bugs. Can't set lock screen and home screen separatly even though it's an option. Map often doesn't update for hours. Sometimes completely crashes and you have to restart the phone and then reset your wallpaper. The map editor is difficult to tell what edits what and the color pickers don't sync between each other and there isn't a way to see and edit the current color of something. Would love to use it, but not realistic currently.

Love the app but I think it needs to be revamped to be easier to use, still having a tough time figuring out how to customize things like the road colors, label colors and etc. seems like when I make a change it doesn't work so a bit confused there. Otherwise I like that you can have a live wallpaper of your location at all times. One cool suggestion would be to be able to click a landmark on the live wallpaper to open it in Google maps automatically, that would be awesome!

Excellent (live) wallpaper service. There's some features I'd like to have though. First, I'd like the option for the live wallpaper to follow the light and dark system themes and change between them along with the rest of the phone. Second, I think the live wallpaper could be crisper, the tag text appears blurry as do some of the thinner road lines. Lastly, if you could add a topography layer (preferably the old school contour lines) I'd consider this app perfect. Thanks for the great app!!
