In this update, the route planner has been improved and now includes its own destination search. We’ve also fixed an issue when creating abandoned places. A big thank you to Yvonne for the helpful feedback!

This update includes optimizations for iOS 26, an improved layout on the home screen, and a new route feature in the Pro version.

With this update, we’ve added a new help system to the app. On all key screens, you can now access help that explains what you see on the screen and what each element is for.

Small improvements.

Made minor improvements and added a search function to the list for the Pro version.

Image loading has been improved – places now appear faster and more reliably. We also made several small improvements to enhance overall stability and performance.

Great update for all users: • You can now save your own secret places directly in the app. These locations stay only on your device and are never shared publicly. • A new announcements section keeps you informed about important news and updates – right inside the app. Pro version: • The search for abandoned places and addresses on the map has been significantly improved. • Export secret places to back them up or share them with your closest friends.

Pro version: The map search has been improved – it now first looks for abandoned places and only if none are found, it automatically performs a keyword-based address search.

Pro feature:  • Instantly translate place details and comments into your language – perfect for users who don’t speak German or English. • Map view improved: A clear info message now shows if a filter is active or only your own places are being displayed, so you always know why some spots might not be visible.

Forgotten X now supports English – both in the app interface and for many Lost Places. The tip feature has been revised to better support development and app support. In addition, the app now starts faster.
