New: Dream Car! Pick the car you dream of in your profile – when you finally spot it, its key lights up. Which one is yours?
Carva is the car spotting app built for enthusiasts who notice every detail on the road — the supercars, the classics, the rare daily-driven gems most people walk straight past.
Point your camera, and the built-in car scanner identifies the car and scores it by rarity. Every spot lands in your personal garage and earns XP, leveling you from Rookie to Unicorn across 20 tiers.
HOW IT WORKS
Snap a photo — or film a 15-second clip — of any interesting car. Carva recognizes it in seconds, from common hatchbacks to once-in-a-lifetime exotics, and scores it by rarity. Car spotting without the guesswork: no manual lookup, no arguing about the trim.
VIDEO SPOTS
Clips play in your feed and open fullscreen with sound. Share them straight to TikTok, Instagram and Facebook.
COLLECT & COMPETE
Every spot is pinned on your car spotting map. Unlock badges for brands, streaks, rare finds and hidden challenges. Climb the global leaderboard, fight for the No.1 spot in your own country, and get a weekly recap of your finds.
DUELS
Challenge another spotter: first to the target XP within 7 days wins.
JOIN THE CAR SPOTTING COMMUNITY
Follow other spotters and see their finds the moment they post them. Drop a "flame" on the cars you love, leave comments and reply to threads. Keep a spot private when you'd rather not share the location.
GHOST HUNT
Find ghost cars hidden on the map near you. Walk to their location, catch them in AR, and add legendary machines to your garage.
DAILY STREAKS & PUZZLES
Spot a car every day to build your streak and earn bonus XP at milestones — 3, 10, 20, 50 and 100 days. Guess the car in the daily puzzle for extra rewards.
INVITE FRIENDS
Share your unique invite code. When a friend redeems it, BOTH of you get +3 bonus scans.
PRIVACY FIRST
Photos are automatically processed to blur faces and license plates before storage; original photos are never saved. Video clips are published as recorded, only after your explicit confirmation.

As I said, Carva is really interesting and fun to use, and I have a few ideas that a think could make it even betterIt would be really cool if there was a badge or achievement next to the car photo or username, for being the first person to spot specific car model globally. It would be awesome if that showed up on my profileSometimes the anti-cheat is a little to strict, a few times I took my own photo, but the app said it already exists at the internet, I know that this is part of app’s security, and I really appreciate it, but I think it could use a few small improvementsI also noticed that the car classification is a little too strict, for example, Dacia Logan isn’t counted as mass produced car, while genesis g80 is, maybe the data base could also use a few small updatesOverall, I really like carva, and I just want to share a few ideas, that might help make it even better. Thanks for your hard work, and keep it up ❤️🔥
