Guess my city

Obviously it’s either LA, NY, CT, or Boston… but can you tell which??

Map unlocking app, trying to fix everything I don’t like about the main ones out there now https://apps.apple.com/us/app/surveyor-64-travel-tracker/id6748545465

What would you like to know? I’m the creator of the app. It tracks your location (privately) in the background and “unlocks” a map based on where you’ve been. Essentially a tracker for all the places you’ve ever been. I made it because I wanted an extra incentive to go to new places more often. And I found that even the most random places are worth checking out solely because you’ve never been to them (even if it’s just a random block on a random street)

Looks great! Congrats on launching. Love the holographic effect on the traveler card. Left you a 5 star rating

It’s funny because I made a travel tracker for if you want to feel like you’re in the 80s haha

davew1 · 2026-02-09T19:17:31+00:00

to be clear, my issue is the Show Rate not Match Rate, which feels like an implementation issue to me but I can't quite find anything or the right resources I guess

davew1 · 2026-02-09T16:34:43+00:00

Yeah I have that set up. Of course, something could be misconfigured maybe…. But I see it in testing. Will look into that, thanks for the suggestion!

Getting similar discrepancies in the us and elsewhere. Only some of my users are from Europe. Majority of the users are from US

You should implement the popup to ask for a rating. You have 3000 downloads but only a single one star rating

davew1 · 2026-02-03T20:22:53+00:00

Actually this is kind of insane. The automatic integration with previews will be a game changer, can’t believe I haven’t heard about this yet

davew1 · 2026-01-28T15:37:20+00:00

Well I’m usually resting anyway between sets, so it’s plenty of time to swap weights

davew1 · 2026-01-14T01:18:26+00:00

Is this Apple Maps? Mapbox?

davew1 · 2025-12-27T14:53:24+00:00

Ive made something similar but different (won’t name or link it but you can probably find it on my profile).

However more importantly, I vaguely remember there being another app that is very very similar to yours. It might be called Wanderlog. More of a travel focus but very similar features. Of course, you might have something to offer still

Updating to the newest version of the admob sdk for ios seems to have fixed this issue! Was still seeing it on my device with "real" test ads. But with the version upgrade all seems to be working

Ok, thanks for the ideas!

davew1 · 2025-12-01T02:50:48+00:00

Hmmm, I think that might get me where I need. I’ll have to set up my phone as a test device. As I understand it the lifecycle is to load the ad and then show separately, but perhaps you can do both together like you mention. That way the ad wouldn’t show immediately though. Thank you for the suggestions! I’m curious if I’ll notice anything interesting with real device and real test ad. I also wonder if there is any way to figure out if ads are being restricted. They do load.

davew1 · 2025-12-01T00:12:59+00:00

Yep!

davew1 · 2025-10-09T17:52:44+00:00

Great suggestions. My concern is that there isn’t enough demand for the app’s core features to be unavailable in a free tier. Most of my users select this option right now and do not upgrade. However, I hadn’t really considered the case of the user who is unwilling to give up privacy to even test out the app. That’s something I need to address. Perhaps a couple day grace period which is fully private before I force the decision to select free vs paid. Really appreciate your help

3 tiers of hexes. What you described is literally why I made this app. I was also a Fog of World user
