On Mapstr, you havejust one personal Map : it's the heart of your experience.
All the places you add are gathered there, all over the world.
For each Place, you can:
- Add tags (personalized keywords) to qualify or group your places (ex. brunch, terrace, museum, favorite, for the view, ...);
- Choose an icon to easily recognize each place;
- Assign a status ("to try", "already tried");
- Add a note, a comment, or a photo.
Please note: all your notes, comments and photos are visible only to you (and possibly to your subscribers if you have chosen to share your Map with them), but they are never public on all maps, nor visible to other Mapstr users who add the same place.
Thanks to this customized organization, you can find, sort, filter or share your addresses as you wish: in a precise geographical area, around you, by city, by type of place, in Map view or list view.
YourMapstr Map is the memory of all your discoveries, to be customized and explored as you wish!
Any type of place can be saved on Mapstr : restaurant, store, landscape, bench, souvenir, or simple point on the Map...
You can add a place to your Map in several ways, depending on what you want and where you are in the application:
From anywhere using the "+" button
- Tap the big "+" button in the center of the navigation bar at the bottom of the screen (accessible from anywhere in the app).
- Choose the search mode: by name, Place, or coordinates.
- To add the place where you are, first tap the "+" button, then select "Add my location".
From the Map, directly:
- Long press on the Map at the desired location.
This displays all the places around this point and also allows you to create a custom place at this location if required (handy for a bench, picnic spot, viewpoint, etc.).
From a place card (on a Map, in an article, via search...)
- When you're viewing a place (from a friend's Map , an article, a suggestion or a search), tap the "Add" button at the bottom of the card to save it to your own Map.
Mapstr is also about inspiration: easily add addresses recommended by friends, locals, influencers, or professional guides.
From the Inspiration tab
- In the Inspiration tab (the first one on the bottom left), you'll find your friends' news, articles, suggestions for maps to follow, and a powerful search engine.
Use the search bar to find a specific place ("where to eat cassoulet?") and add it directly to your Map.
Import addresses from other applications
- You can also import your addresses from Google Maps, your contacts, or external files.
➔ See the question "Import or export my addresses" for details of the procedure.
💡 If the place you're looking for doesn't exist in the suggestions, create it easily by long-pressing the Map then choosing "Create a custom place". This place will exist only on your Map and won't be findable by other users!
Oncethe place has been added, you'll be able to customize it with your tags, status ("to try"/"already tested"), note, comment, photo, privacy options...
👉 To find out more about all the customization and organization possibilities, check out the following questions in this section (tags, status, notes, photos, privacy, etc.).
Yes, you can save absolutely any place on Mapstr : an official Place , a simple point on the Map (secret corner, viewpoint, bench, souvenir...), or even the place where you are.
How to do it?
- From the Map :
Long press on the desired location in the Map. If no Place appears, tap "Create a custom place". Give it a name, add your tags, comments or photos, then save.
- From the "+" button:
Tap the "+" button in the center of the navigation bar at the bottom of the screen, then choose "Use my current position" to instantly save your location. You can then personalize the location (name, tags, details...) before validating.
Privacy
A personalized location appears only on your Map : it is never shared in the public address base or made visible to other users. Only you know where this unique spot is.
Organize your Map in your own image! Tags let you categorize your addresses according to your desires: themes, colors, emojis...
You can create, modify or delete them at any time to personalize your Map.
Createor add a tag to a place
- When you add or modify a Place, in the"Add tags to categorize this place" section.
- Select an existing tag or tap"Create a new tag" to to create a custom one ("Brunch", "Coup de coeur", "Voyage Rome 2024", "Cocktail bars", "Sunset", "Date night"...)
You can add as many tags as you like to each Place to find them at a glance.
Change the name or color of a tag
- Long-press the tag in the left-hand menu of your Map, or when adding/editing a place, long-press the tag in the list of proposed tags.
- Change its name, add an emoji ("🍕 Pizzeria", "🌳 Park", "💻 Coworking"), or customize the color (ideal for creating "color charts" according to your moods or themes).
Delete a tag
-Always via a long press on the tag (from the tags menu on the left of the Map or editing a location), tap "Delete tag".
Important: in theory, there needs to be at least one tag on each location. Deleting a tag currently in use therefore risks creating places without tags... they'll appear in your Map's"To be categorized" category.
💡 Have fun creating color swatches or organizing your tags by theme and emoji to find your places at a glance!
A well-organized Map means you'll find everything the first time! Mapstr lets you sort your tags according to your habits and desires, for ultra-intuitive navigation.
To reorganize your tags:
1. From the left-hand menu (where your tags are displayed), touch the "..." icon next to the title, on your Map or another user's.
2. Choose your preferred sorting mode:
- Sort by name: to sort tags from A to Z (handy if you have a lot of them).
- Sort by use: puts the tags you use most often at the top.
- Custom sort: drag and drop tags in the order that suits you (don't forget to save before exiting! This option is only available on your own Map).
💡 Tip:
Use custom sorting to put your favorite categories at the top ("Coup de cœur", "Brunch du dimanche"...), or organize your tags by color, emoji or theme. Your Map truly becomes your reflection!
Turn your Map into a veritable notebook of discoveries: Mapstr makes it easy to distinguish between addresses you want to try out and those you've already explored.
The principle
When you add a place to your Map, you must choose its status:
- To be tried (displayed on the Map with the 🤔 emoji on the place marker),
- Already tested (no emoji on the marker; in the place card, a 🤩 emoji is displayed to symbolize your discoveries).
Changing your mind is very simple: at any time, you can change the status of a place.
How to do it?
- When adding a place:
Onthe add screen, select the desired status just after choosing tags, before saving the place.
- From the place card:
Openthe card, then use the switch to change from "To try" to "Already tested" (or vice versa).
- From the list view:
LocatethePlace, then change its status using the switch next to the relevant place.
💡 Example: When planning your vacation, add all the restaurants and places to visit as "To try" 🤔. After your stay, switch them to "Déjà testé" to keep track of your best discoveries.
The comment is the ideal place to keep track of your impressions, your good tips, or even the reason why you saved a place.
How to add or modify a comment?
- When adding a place
Onthe add screen, you'll find a "Comment" field. Here you can write down a tip, a recommendation or whatever makes you want to discover this place.
- From the record of a place already registered
Openthe record, then:
- If no comment exists, tap directly on "Edit place to add a comment": this opens the place edit and comment field.
- If a comment already exists, click on the pencil icon ✏️ to edit it at any time.
Fromthe edit screen of a place
Atany time, open the listing, tap "Modify", then fill in or change your comment.
Someideas to enrich your comments:
- Before you've tested the place
Statewhy you've added it: "Recommended by Pauline", "Seen on Insta (@bestfoodparis account)", "To test the desserts", "New terrace a stone's throw from my house", etc.
You can also copy and paste the link to the article or video that inspired you!
-After you've tried it
Noteyour impressions, the context or even the atmosphere: "Lovely service, but a bit noisy on Saturday nights", "Big favorite for the tiramisu!", "Perfect for a lunch with colleagues", "Visited with Emma, good memory", "First date with Victor", etc.
💡Hint: A precise comment is not only a memory for you, but also a real plus for giving good advice to your friends or subscribers who consult your Map !
Personalize your Map and your memories by adding your own photos to each Place ! It's the ideal way to keep a memory of a dish, an atmosphere, an inspiring article or a moment experienced with your loved ones.
How to do it?
- When adding a place
Onthe add screen, touch the "Add a photo" button to select an image from your gallery or take a live photo.
- For a location already saved
Openthe location record, tap "Edit", then "Add a photo".
You can add multiple photos to each location and delete them at any time if required.
🔒 To know about photo privacy
- Your photos remain private: they are not added to the place's public photos and do not feed any common database.
- Visibility: your photos are visible only from your Map, by yourself or by those who visit your Map.
- If someone saves this place from your Map, your photos are not transferred: they remain personal to your Map.
- You can't delete official photos (added by the place owner or our data sources), but you can remove those you've added yourself at any time.
The pictogram is the icon that appears on the Map or in the list to represent each place at a glance: perfect for spotting your favorite restaurants, cafés, museums, boutiques or secret beaches in an instant!
How do I do it?
- When adding a place
Onthe add screen, touch the pictogram of the place (usually automatically suggested according to the category detected) then choose the one you like from the full list of symbols.
- For a place already registered
Openthe place card, touch "Modify", then touch the pictogram again to change it to your liking.
There are dozens of symbols to choose from: 🍴 (restaurant), ☕️ (café), 🍸 (bar), 🎭 (museum), 🏖️ (beach), 🏠 (house), ⚽️ (stadium), 🌳 (park)... and many more.Each location category has its own favorite pictograms: for example, the knife/fork for restaurants, the cup for cafés, or the tent for campsites.
Pictograms and tags: two complementary tools
- The pictogram helps you quickly spot the type of place directly on the Map.
- Tags go further: they allow you to classify, filter and find your addresses according to any criteria you choose (atmosphere, occasion, memories...).
Feel free to personalize both! For example, a restaurant can be displayed with the icon 🍕 and receive the tags "Resto", "Brunch", "Terrasse", "Coup de cœur".
On Mapstr, you can easily keep track of your favorites... or your disappointments! Adding a note to a Tested Place lets you find your best memories in a flash (and avoid unpleasant surprises).
How to do it?
- First change the place to "Already tested" status
Notesare reserved for addresses you've actually tested. If the location is still in "To be tried" status, change it first (from the listing, the list or when adding).
- From the location listing
1. Open the file of the location being tested.
2. Touch "Modify".
3. In the "Rating" section, select the number of stars (from 1 to 5).
4. Save: the rating will be displayed in the location's file, only on your Map.
- When adding a new location
Ifyou indicate that you have already tested it, you can directly add a rating when saving.
To know
- Your rating remains personal: it is visible only to you and to people to whom you explicitly share your Map. The establishment concerned never has access to your rating.
- No average rating, no fake reviews: Mapstr neither calculates nor displays any "global rating" derived from user ratings. Your rating remains a personal tool, with no outside influence, because an anonymous review from a complete stranger never truly reflects your tastes.
💡 Tip: Don't hesitate to set a low rating (1/5) to remember a disappointment, avoid going back despite the buzz... or even warn your friends and family by sharing your Map. Your Map is also your address book of places to avoid!
Mapstr respects your choices: you control the visibility of your comments and notes at all times.
According to the confidentiality of your Map :
- Map in private mode
Onlythe people you have accepted as subscribers can view your addresses, comments and notes. No one else has access.
- Map in public mode
Yourcomments and notes will be visible to anyone who visits or subscribes to your Map - friends, family or community members.
- Place in private mode
Youcan keep a Place secret at any time (e.g.: family Place , confidential place): no one will then be able to see this Place, nor your associated comments and notes, except you.
Toknow about premium establishments:
In very special cases (premium pro accounts), establishments can see anonymized extracts of public comments left on their Place - never your notes, nor your private comments or those linked to a Place in private mode.
Yourexperience remains strictly private, unless you decide to share it via a public Map .
YourMapstr Map is growing fast: to find, organize or explore your addresses, use filters and sorting to your heart's content!
