Description
Places by Gyroscope is the easiest and most powerful way to track your life. Just turn on the tracker, and the intelligence runs in the background. Then at the end of the day or week, you can open the app and see a detailed timeline and map of where you went. Not just the places you visited (restaurants, cafes, work, gym, thousands of custom locations) but also how you traveled there... Did you walk? Drive? Take a bus? Uber? Ride a horse? Now all those and dozens more can be logged and detected. What all can you do with this information? You probably remember what you did earlier today, or yesterday. But what about last week? Three months ago? 5 years ago? Our memories quickly fade, but Places is designed to capture it all and make it effortless to store. Some people use it as an automated journal. To see where their time went. To reflect on their week. To write and read the story of their life. Others use it to travel and share their trips. The app includes beautiful and customizable share cards, so you can export different images, maps, timelines and visualizations of where you went—whether it was just down the street in your neighborhood, or to a country around the world. You can keep these memories for yourself, post them on social media, or just send to some close friends. With maximum privacy by default and customizable sharing options, you can control exactly what details you share. Anonymized city stats, simple visualizations or detailed maps... the choice is yours. For some people, Places can be used for work. Perhaps you need to track your driving with a company vehicle, to keep track of mileage logs or tax forms. Or maybe you need to track how long you spent at a particular jobsite for billing. If your job requires you to be somewhere or travel somewhere, Places can be an essential tracker and save you hours of manual work. And last but not least—the world traveler. Places keeps track of all your cities, countries and travels. You’ll be able to see what you did in each city, how much time you’ve spent in a year in each place, and much more. This can often be useful for tax purposes, for visa applications, for medical forms, and much more. --- Privacy and Terms Places is part of the Gyroscope network, and uses the same account as the main Gyroscope app and websites.

Premium membership increases the storage to unlimited, so you can track everything in one place. --- “Love being able to go back in time, it feels like a superpower at times. As Jobs once said, you can only connect the dots looking backwards.” –Mert “I use Gyroscope daily to track my path through the world and as a historic look back to see where I have been.” –Joseph “As a travel enthusiast I really enjoy this feature, and even when not traveling to any exotic location I just like keeping track of where I’ve been every day.” –Patriq
