You bring up a great point...but the problem with that is we would have to ask the creators for permission on each one of their routes. Either that, or we partner up with them and they post those routes or any other routes they want. Copyin

You're right on both counts, and I apologize. The U.S only thing should be visible for visitors to see, not a blockade they hit after trying to install. I also should have mentioned that in the post itself. Updating the site today. On

Thank you for everyone for giving your inputs, we really appreciate it! Just an FYI since I saw a lot of people asking, GridTravel is only available in the U.S at the moment. We have plans to expand to other markets as the app grows! Thanks

Yes, users can download routes and use navigation fully offline once a route's saved. Great for low-service areas, or just not burning data while walking around a new city. The explore page still needs a connection, but the actual trip

Custom points was something we considered but hadn't implemented yet. That'll be coming in a future update so keep an eye out! We had a similar issue with the search bar when we were using our custom search key api. Made the switc

At the moment, it's manual creation. You build the route by placing waypoints and adding notes, tips, and a cover photo (if you prefer). So you can create the route whenever you'd like. Live recording is something we considered bu

Thanks! Yeah that's the idea. Biggest problem we are encountering in the initial stages is just the UGC with users or lack thereof but it hasn't even been 48 hours since launch lol. Seeding major cities at the moment and as the us

Those screenshots were on my list to update so thank you for the reminder! UGC: Our first phase definitely looks closer to what you're describing than the long term goal. We're seeding the major US cities ourselves, then bringing

We are planning on launching an android version in the near future, just don't have a specific timeline yet. Looking to see how the response is from the iOS users. On the business side: influencer-created itineraries is something we&#x

Hey man, congrats on the project! And to answer your question, the app is geared towards exploration in your city as well as others. So whether you're planning on going into downtown to explore new places or planning a trip to Tennesse

Thanks! Just out of curiosity, what country do you reside in? We're iOS only for now (planning to come to android in the near future) and the App Store availability is set up market-by-market, so it'd be useful for us to know wher

Alex, appreciate the warmhearted comment. Especially from someone who's been in a similar spot, means a lot. Curious what stuck with you from that project, good or bad, if you're willing to share (contact info in profile if you wa
