Uggozi is a fun new way of exploring places. Share and discover photos, blogs and articles of places around the world. Set HD beautiful photos of different places shared by travellers as your wallpapers. Spread the wanderlust to your friends and family by composing and sending them inspiring interactive picture postcards.
If you're a traveller or an explorer then let your blogs and photos inspire more dreamers to travel.
We moderate the photos and the links submitted so that their subject is the place. They should somehow describe the place - it's culture, people or natural beauty. But we do not judge the quality of the photo or the content of the link subjectively as we believe in - "beauty lies in the eye of beholder"!
To deliver the best experience, the app shows only the photos which will look good on your phone. So no more blurry photos!
With Uggozi you can:
• Submit a photo of a place along with max two links to blogs or articles on the internet that describe the place.
• Set any gorgeous HD photo of a place as wallpaper and get inspired the moment you open your phone. Every wallpaper bears the name of the photographer and the place.
• Inspire friends and family by sending them an interactive picture postcard. Each interactive postcard bears the name of the photographer and the place of the photo.
• Read any blog or article and if you like the content then show your appreciation by 'loving' it.
• See and read the most loved links to blogs and articles of a place in that place's feed.
• Get bestowed by the honor of becoming the 'Uggozi Explorer' of a geographical location by uploading the first popular photo of that location.
• Mark a place as 'Been there' or 'Want to see'.
