Remember the places that made the trip.
Known Ground is a private travel journal and photo map for your trips, walks and memories. Keep the street you stumbled on, the view you came for, and the details you want to remember, together with the places they belong.
KEEP THE TRIP TOGETHER
Bring your photos, visits, routes and notes into one trip. Return to a day through the places you explored and the memories you kept.
REMEMBER MORE THAN THE VIEW
Keep trip photos connected to their places. Add a few words about what you noticed, why you stopped, or what you would do next time.
SAVE THE PLACES YOU WOULD GO BACK TO
Save places for later, record visits when you go, and keep notes and photos with a particular visit. Build a map of the places you know.
KEEP THE WAY YOU WENT
Record your explorations with Trip Coverage or a focused Apple Watch walk. Import walking, running, hiking and cycling routes from Apple Health. Health imports and their trip assignments stay on the device where you import them.
FIND YOUR WAY BACK TO A MEMORY
Search by place, trip, note or photo context. Find Known Ground memories in Spotlight, too.
PRIVATE, WITH ROOM FOR YOUR PEOPLE
Your library is private unless you choose to share. Invite people to a trip through iCloud, choose which memories to share, and use owner, editor or view-only access. No public profile, social feed, ads or cross-app tracking.
For iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch. No app-specific account is required. iCloud sync and private trip invitations use your Apple Account.
