Amazing Tracker

I love this app. Polarsteps easily tracks stops on roadtrips and flights - the trip tracker is awesome. Also love the profile page, especially the overall map view that has the red dots to show all trip stops - the only thing I’d want to see improved would be being able to see that map up close. Like if you could tap on the overall trip map behind the profile photo so you could see top level how many spots someone has been. That map is one of the coolest features but it’s kinda hidden behind the profile photo and other UI elements on the top half of that page. Even if you just repeat that map element at the bottom of the profile, so keep it up top behind the profile photo (because it’s great to see as the first thing), but then as a user scrolls down the profile through all the stats, you get to that map again - but here you can zoom in and actually see all the Stop Dots without any UI blocking it - that would be awesome!
Really love your app. Can tell it’s designed and built by avid travelers!

Cannot get it to work for current trip!

I’ve been traveling for a month and found out about this from a fellow traveler. It’s brilliant in concept but I cannot get it to track my current trip. It synced all of my trips from 7 years ago from my photos with all gps location details, and attached photos to those locations. But the point of me using it is for my current trip and it is just a blank slat. Does not import my photos, location, or dates at all. I’ve done everything I can think of, went into a deep dive in my iOS settings, went through the trip settings, my account settings, read through pretty much the ENTIRE help center, scoured Reddit, updated my phone, deleted my account and reinstalled it, restarted my phone etc and NOTHING WORKS!! It wants me to add everything manually down to the date I flew and the location I flew into and then the next place I stayed etc but at no point does it ever finally pick up in syncing to fill the info in. I ended the trips, restarted the trip, every thing I can possibly think of and NOTHING works. What is the point in using this for your friends and family to track your travels if it only syncs trip details after you arrive back home?!?! The only trips it syncs are ones where I’ve ended AND flown back to my home location. Otherwise this stupid thing is WORTHLESS and you might as well just post on social media because it will be endlessly less frustrating!!!

Perfect for documenting travels

So my friend and I road-tripped across the US last year and this app was so great for so many reasons. First - it tracks you as you go and allows you to take pictures with location/time details. So when we would stop in the middle of nowhere and take a pic it knew exactly where we were and the time , and you can add a little blurb. It also created a map for you of your route and all of your stops/ pics you too along the way. A year later I finally created and purchased a book of our travels through polar steps and sent it to my friend as a surprise. It was perfect because I didn’t have to remember where we stopped or what we we’re thinking that day or the jokes we made, since I had it all saved in the app. The OTHER great thing about this company besides the product is their customer service. When I initially sent the book to my friend for Christmas it was stolen from her doorstep. They sent another one without charge and she finally got it. Great company
