If your memories of places are scattered across camera rolls and starred map lists, Pinpals keeps the pin, the photos and the note together, stored on your own phone.
Pinpals is an iPhone app for keeping places alongside the memory attached to them. You drop a pin and add photos, a note, a mood and the people you were with. Pins can be coloured and tagged, marked as favourites, filtered on a timeline by period or tag, and opened for directions, across several map styles. The maker says places, notes and photos are stored on the iPhone; you can sign in with Apple or Google, use it as a guest, or delete your account from inside the app. It is free. The App Store privacy label does list analytics and diagnostics as linked to identity.
