About this app

DISCOVER PHOTO SPOTS
Hundreds of photographer-registered spots on the interactive map – with shooting direction, track information, route type, and recommendations for the best vantage point. Offline track data for all of Germany is included.

CREATE & SHARE SPOTS
Capture your perfect location: GPS position, camera orientation via compass, track assignment, and train direction – all in one step, visible to everyone.

DOCUMENT SIGHTINGS
Photograph passing trains directly from the app. Enter the train number, class, and route, and share your sightings with the community or keep them private. Public sightings require a photo – for better feed quality.

PHOTO GALLERY & CHALLENGES
Browse the community gallery with hundreds of train photos, filtered by category, route, or time period. Participate in monthly photo challenges and showcase your best shots.

COMMUNITY & FEED
Discover sightings from other users, like them, write comments, and follow other photographers. New sightings are verified by the community – you vote and receive XP for your efforts. Posts unrelated to trains are automatically hidden.

GAMIFICATION & LEADERBOARDS
Earn XP for every action, unlock exclusive badges, and display your badge next to your username. The Hall of Fame recognizes the best sightings and the most active XP leaders each month.
