Frame 01Stop callout

Revisit every stop.

Tap a pin to see the photo you took there. Nearby photos cluster under a single pin with a count, and a star marks each stop's cover photo. Swap it anytime. Full screen, every photo is titled with when and where it was taken, and a timeline rail shows how you traveled between stops. Need to tidy a route? Drop a stop and Wander rebuilds the path.

Frame 02Suggested Wanders

Wanders you forgot you took.

Wander can look through your photo library for days that look like a journey you never saved, and offer them back. The search runs entirely on your device and reads only the date and location stored with each photo, never the photos themselves. Suggestions learn from the Wanders you have already kept, so they fit the distances and the days you actually cover.

Frame 03Workout routes

The route you actually took.

If you recorded a walk, run, ride, or hike in Apple Health while you were taking your photos, Wander offers to draw the path your workout recorded instead of guessing a route between them. Turn the recording on to see the whole thing, including the stretch before your first photo and after your last. Wander only ever reads from Health, and never writes to it.

Frame 04Photo picker

Find the right day.

Choosing photos happens right inside Wander. Filter your library to a single day or a date range, jump straight to a place you visited, or switch to the map and draw a circle over a neighborhood to gather everything you shot there.

Frame 05Activity types

Not just walks. Wanders.

Mark any leg of a journey as running, cycling, hiking, or driving (even a train, a boat, or a flight), and the route redraws to match: locked to real streets and trails on land, a clean line across the water. Wander reads the clues too (trail names, pace, elevation) and suggests: “Looks like a hike.”

Frame 06Notes and weather

Remember the day, not just the route.

Write a note on a whole Wander or on any single stop, leg, or waypoint: what you did, who you were with, how it felt. Look up the weather your journey happened in, and each stop will keep the conditions and temperature recorded at the moment your photos were taken. Tag a Wander however you think, then search your Logbook by notes and tags.

Frame 07The Logbook

Every Wander, kept.

The Logbook is the home of the app. Every Wander saves automatically with a fun auto-generated name (Morning Stroll, Afternoon Trek…). Sort into folders you can color and badge with a symbol, heart your favorites, filter by activity or by person, and search by name, place, or date. Your Logbook syncs privately across your iPhone and iPad through your own iCloud.

Frame 08Insights

Everywhere you have been.

Insights adds up everything you have wandered: lifetime distance, photos, your longest journey, your busiest month, and how far you have gone on foot, by bike, by car, and in the air.

Frame 09People

Who was with you.

Add the people who shared the journey (imported from Contacts or created on the spot) and attach them to any Wander, or just part of one. Browse a person to see every Wander you've taken together, and filter a route's photos down to just them.

Frame 10Playback

Routes on real streets.

MapKit directions connect every stop on real paths, not straight lines. Press play to watch a marker travel the whole route from start to finish, with a picture-in-picture viewer that opens on your first photo and follows along. That is it running, beside this.

Frame 11Waypoints

Shape the route you actually took.

Drop or search for a waypoint to bend a leg through a place you didn't photograph: a trailhead, a café, the station you set out from. Set one as your start or end so the line begins before your first photo or runs past your last, or make it a round trip that loops home. Give a waypoint its own elevation and it joins your climb chart, too.

Frame 12Elevation

See how high you climbed.

Every photo tags its altitude. Your Wander's elevation profile draws below the route, synced to playback, and elevation gain now sits right in the stats.

Frame 13Share card

Made with Wander.

Share any Wander as a polished card carrying the route and the stats, now with a featured photo up top, an optional elevation chart, and point-to-point journeys titled “X to Y.” Portrait, square, or landscape; light or dark; the badge is always included.

Frame 14iPad

At home on iPad.

Wander makes the iPad feel native. The wider canvas goes to the map, so a full day of walking stays readable end to end, pin by pin, and the stats bar fills out with the figures the iPhone has no room for: elapsed time, your pace, and how far you climbed. Everything syncs across iPhone and iPad through your private iCloud.
