I have just started using this app as we travel a lot and I was initially looking for photo opportunities for our forthcoming trip to South America. Gives exact locations and photos. A nice edition is directions of sunrise and sunset. Also parking nearby and how busy to expect the location. Once this app hopefully grows there will be more locations added and more photos! I know I will be adding to the locations we will visit, especially the Falkland Islands
Developer Response
Thank you so much for the thoughtful review and for giving Locationscout a try!I’m glad that the app is already useful for your trip planning. The platform has grown to 263,000+ entries worldwide, but you’re absolutely right: less-traveled regions, especially places like parts of South America, still deserve much better coverage.Improving overall and regional coverage is one of my top priorities, and contributions from travelers like you make a real difference. It’s amazing to hear that you plan to add spots from the Falkland Islands. That’s exactly how Locationscout keeps growing in meaningful ways.Wishing you an incredible trip, all the best for 2026, and thank you for being part of the community!Manuel
Outstanding
Pacemace
This app is without doubt the best out there for finding great photography locations. A sample of images and details of where to park close by and how to get to the actual location is brilliant. Also tips on getting that shot. What’s not to love??? It’s worth every penny. Also the response from the developer when asking advice is fast and reliable. Take the plunge. Get the app on premium. You won’t regret it.
Developer Response
Thank you so much for your kind words. You made my day already and such great feedback means a lot to me. Can't wait to push the next really big update to the App Store next week and I hope you like it as much as I do. Thank you so much again for your rating and feel free to reach out at any time if you have any questions. I'm always happy to help. Safe travels and all the best to you! -- Manuel
Fantastic for any photographer
Yellowbooth
Brilliant app, really well thought out and easy to use. Super simple to bring up a list of great photography spots within preset distances from either your current location or a specified location should you wish to plan in advance.You may then preview a photo of each, then learn useful tips like access to the location, best times to photograph etc.. Once you decide to visit the photo spot, you can then click one button to start your in-built phone navigation to the best place to park - then one more click to guide you by foot to the exact point.If you want an easy way to find great photo spots without the hit and miss problems that we face, this app is a no brainer!!
Developer Response
Thank you so much dear Yellowbooth, I highly appreciate your great rating and I am so happy that the app is a no-brainer for you as well. I will do my best to improve it even further on a daily basis and if you ever feel that there is something missing, please feel free to reach out at any time. I am always happy to hear from you!

Great for inspiration and travel planning
Alucinary
Made a suggestion to the developer to more reliably include information on equipment selection - they were really responsive and came back with good suggestions of how they might improve this (and the huge efforts they’ve already been making in this regard). Super helpful and a really positive experience using the app. Top kudos to Manuel!
Developer Response

- Board Map Rework
I added all the great new features from the location and country maps to the board maps as well, including the filters, the search, and the new image grid.
- Some smaller usability improvements and bug fixes
I hope you had a great start to this summer!
