About the app

Never lose a recommendation again.

MapVault is a free iOS and Android app for saving, organising, and sharing place recommendations on a map. Tag places with emoji, add personal notes, and filter by what you want β€” so you always find the right spot when it matters. It's the missing layer between β€œI'll save that” and actually going there.

The commitment

Here's what being a beta tester involves.

We want testers who will genuinely use the app. Here's what we ask:

  • Use MapVault for a minimum of 2 weeks
  • Test the app on your own iPhone or Android device
  • Work through the feature checklist below
  • Report any bugs you find (we'll share a reporting channel when you're accepted)
  • Fill out a short feedback form we'll send at the end of the 2 weeks

Feature checklist

What you'll be testing.

During your 2 weeks, we'd like you to try each of the following features. Tick them off as you go β€” we'll ask about each one in the feedback form.

  • 1. Create an account

    Sign up with email or a social provider

  • 2. Search for a place

    Use the search bar to find a real venue

  • 3. Save a place

    Add it to your personal map

  • 4. Add a tag

    Apply an emoji tag to a saved place

  • 5. Write a note

    Add a personal note to a saved place

  • 6. Mark as visited

    Toggle the visited status on a place

  • 7. Filter by tag

    Use tag filtering to narrow map results

  • 8. Filter by visited status

    Filter to see only visited or unvisited places

  • 9. Create a shared map

    Create a new map and share it with someone (Premium feature β€” your free year covers this)

    Add another user to your shared map

  • 11. Get directions

    Tap a saved place and open it in your maps app
