This is really a handy tool. Nice design!

Hi, thank you so much for all the work you've put in your app! I just downloaded it and will definitely give it a try. I've been a Moves user since day one and have 4 years worth of Moves location data, but its been neglected and left behind lately, so I'm on a lookout for a replacement. I really like your app's layout and overall feel to it, if you could just somehow integrate my Moves data I've already collected?! It would be wonderful! Anyway, it is just an idea, but Momento journal has it, so it can be done and you have all these other apps we can import data from... anyway, good luck with the development, keep up the good work!
Tim Fernando
@euergetes thanks for commenting and your kind words! That's a good question and actually one we've had from dozens of people in the same situation, we've actually got Moves integration on our backlog but as you've reminded me about it it's something I'll try and push up the list. Our system should already be technically able to handle the locations, but would you like other parts of Moves data too?

@timfernando @timfernando wow, this is fantastic news indeed! I always liked how Moves just collects data in the background and "knows" the places you've been befor, so you don't have to interact with it too much. The problem has always been with extracting that data. There is no search, tags, charts, only the day by day time log. If you could somehow get the places from Moves and integrate it to your timeline for past entries and maybe make it searchable, I'd be completely sold.

@timfernando I never cared for the fitness aspect of Moves though, there are better apps and devices for that, but my Moves places are invaluable sources for me for where I've been. As you probably know Moves integrates with services such as Move-O-Scope, that is able to indicate you movements for entire Months and Years over a regular map, now something like that would be great to have in an app. Well of course basic integration would be already a huge step up for my purpose, not to mention the ability to attach notes and photos, which you already do in a beautiful manner! Anyway, just a little food for tought, in the meantime I'm really excited about the possibility to switch to your app! Thanks for the quick response, by the way, and good luck guys!

@euergetes that's really interesting and really helpful, thanks! We had been a bit cautious to move on Moves (pardon the pun) because we weren't sure if people will want the health data integrated too - but I think most, like you, might only care about the places rather than the health especially as much of that comes "for free" from things like the Health app these days. I've made a new ticket in our tracker to look at Moves. I'm hoping we might be able to push this out in the next month or two if the data we get back is compatible :-) By the way the web version of Esplorio also has something called Travelgraphs and Badges (coming soon to iOS too). These show you your travels on a yearly basis and give you some achievements for visiting certain places.

@timfernando oh, I didn't know you had a web version as well! Rock on! I like what I hear more and more, I start to feel sorry about not discovering your app sooner! Well if you'd really look into that Moves integration... 😄 Best of luck and thanks for all the info! Once again, good luck with development! Cheers!

Nice, similar to Eightydays.me but doesn’t have automatic touring

Tim Fernando
@ethnoza um, it doesn't appear to be at all related to what Esplorio does?
Paul Kemp
A great effort to the makers. After travelling around Asia over the summer, I'm excited to use Esplorio for my travel adventures in 2017
Essa Saulat
@paul_s_kemp Thanks Paul :D Sounds like you have a fun 2017 planned! Remember, you can still retroactively create your trip to Asia using past iPhone photos and through past social media content :D All you have to do is enter the start/end dates and Esplorio will bring together all the content from that range to create a trip ✈️🌏

Great product! There is something is not working correctly for me at least: clicking on "+ Add Intergrations" crashes the app. PS: I like the cat :D
Tim Fernando
@alexsnurnikov thank for writing. Sorry about the button - we noticed that a couple of hours after it went live :-( However we've got a build coming through in hopefully < 24hrs (it has been with Apple for a few hours now) which fixes that. In the mean time you can still add integrations by hitting "settings" and then "add integrations". Glad you like the cat, his name is Polo and is drawn by my better half @efjmc http://emily.gd. We're hoping to have a bit more of him in the future if Emily can find more time :-)

A refined interface. 👍 Like the low battery 🔋 usage (will have to test it though). With Google Trips App (for planning) and Esplorio (for documenting) my travel app stack looks nearly complete!
Essa Saulat
@ashutosh508 Thanks! Glad you like it so much :) When you are testing it, do keep in touch via the feedback button :D We'd love to hear how things go and how we can improve things further!
Perttu Talasniemi
Looks very interesting. 🙂
Tim Fernando
@imakesoft thanks Perttu! If you get a chance to try it out, we'd really appreciate your thoughts :-)
Arnab Kar
Great job! Was wondering if you can update the IG icon on your website... Cheers!
Tim Fernando
@arnabkar47 Thanks Arnab! Also thanks for spotting the old logo, I've just changed and uploaded it :-)

Esplorio is the BEST way to create memories of great experiences. More flexible and intelligent than Google Photos. And I like being able to add notes and include tweets and posts. A definite app to have!
Tim Fernando
@craig_lee thanks for the kind words! We always love to be compared to the big guys. I think we're quite proud of our timezones management - probably because it's something we as a team have collectively lost a lot of hair over. The plus side is that we do appear to handle peoples' photos in different timezones better than Apple's own Photos app :-)

I would love to use this instead of Instagram for my travels. Are you planning on bringing this beautiful app to Android?
Essa Saulat
@chriscchan Hey Chris! Thanks for the kind words :D Glad you like the app! We do have that in mind, but since we're still a pretty small team, it may take some time. In the meantime, you can try out the web version :D
