How the photos become a map

  1. Drop

    JPEG or HEIC, straight from your camera roll. Photos with no location in them are left out, and the editor says how many.

  2. Placed

    Photos taken close together become one stop, named after the nearest town or landmark on the map. The legs between stops follow the roads.

  3. Pinned

    Each stop shows its photo as a small print on a thread. Drag a print where it reads best, or hide them all.

Your photos stay on your device

The Privacy notice lists every service a Map reaches and how long each record is kept.

Where the map goes

The same Map exports to each of these, laid out again for each shape, and the photos move with their stops. Print sheets go to any print shop, or into a photo book’s editor like a photo.

Questions

How do I make a map from my photos?

Open the editor and drop the photos from your trip on it, or choose Import under New Map. The stops, their names and the legs between them are made for you, and you can change any of them. Other ways to make a travel map

Which photos work?

JPEG and HEIC photos that carry a location, as most phone photos do. Photos sent through some messaging apps lose their location on the way, so use the originals from your camera roll.

Are my photos uploaded?

No. They are read in your browser. The Map keeps one small copy of one photo per stop, saved in this browser, or in your account if you sign in.

What about photos from months of travel?

Photos taken over months become a set of places, one for each spot, with no route drawn between them.

Can I print it?

Yes. Every format exports free with a small Made with Maptelier mark, and print sheets at 2,048 pixels. Unlocking the Map for US$12 gives the A3 and 70 × 50 sheets at 300 dpi without the mark. A trip as a poster
