murmur - Leave words on a map
■ Does this sound familiar?
・You saw something on a walk and want to leave a word about it, right there
・You wonder what is going on around here today
・You have a thought too small for social media
・You want to write without counting numbers or followers
murmur is a map for those small words.
■ Features
◆ Words tied to places (mur)
Write a short note and it stays on the map where you wrote it. No sign-up is needed, and posts show no names or profiles. You can add one photo, too: take it on the spot or pick one from your photos (up to 10 murs with a photo at a time).
◆ Words for today
Choose how long a mur stays, from 1 to 48 hours. When the time is up, it fades from the map.
◆ A word for a shop (must)
Leave one word per person for a shop or any place. The word with the most favorites shows on the map as a speech bubble. Search by the shop's name, its genre, or what people wrote. Words written on the spot get a pin mark.
◆ Look nearby
Set a radius and see the words left around you. Pick one of five steps, from 1km to 100km.
◆ See the world
Browse words left in cities around the world, including places you have never been.
◆ Answer together (mood)
From time to time, we ask everyone a question, like "How's the weather right now?" Tap an answer and it appears on the map as a regular mur. Zoom out to see the most common answer in each area.
◆ Build together (monument)
Answer the mood near a monument on the map to help build it. When enough people join, it is complete. Share an image showing how many more people a monument under construction needs.
◆ Compete in teams (match)
From time to time a match opens: pick a team, like Red or White, and see which one gets more people. Leave a mur to join, and your team's flag goes up where you left it. Get the result in a notification and share it as an image.
◆ Translated on your device
Words in other languages can be translated on your device (on iPhone, iOS 18 or later). Nothing about what you read is ever sent anywhere.
◆ No following, no popularity ranking
There are favorites and replies with no names attached. You choose whether to accept replies when you post. No following, no followers. Nothing rises to the top because it is popular.
■ About location
Your location is used while you have the app open: to place a mur where you wrote it, and to show what is around you. The position saved with a mur is shifted on your device by up to the distance you choose when posting (0m–1km, 50m to start) before it is sent.
■ Who it is for
・Anyone who likes noticing small things around town
・Anyone curious about the mood of their own city
・Travelers who want to read local voices
・Anyone tired of social media numbers
■ Premium (monthly or yearly)
・Keep a mur for up to 7 days
・Place up to 3 marks, anywhere you choose
・Look back on your own murs on the map with footprints
A mark is a named point that does not disappear. Use it for a shop, a stall on a certain day, a class you run. Place it at any spot you choose on the map (not near schools or hospitals, in mostly residential areas, and a few other places). A mark placed where you are gets an "On site" badge, and marks can get replies.
Footprints stay only on your device and are never sent to our server. When you change phones, export them and import them on the new one.
■ On safety
Every post is checked by an automated filter before it appears on the map. Photos are checked automatically before others see them; borderline ones are shown and then reviewed by a person. You can report any post or block its author from the post itself. A person reviews every report within 24 hours. Posts that break the Terms of Use are removed, and the device that posted them can no longer post.
Small words, left right where they were written.
