Pin Drop vs Wanderlog

Wanderlog helps you build structured itineraries. Pin Drop gives you a simple map to save, organise and revisit places wherever they are.

Save places as you find them

Drop pins instantly when you come across somewhere worth visiting.

Organise your travel ideas

Use tags to group places like restaurants, beaches or viewpoints.

Add notes and photos

Keep useful details and memories attached to each place.

Build your map over time

Your map grows across trips, not just within a single itinerary.

When planning turns into collecting places

Wanderlog is designed for structured trip planning. You build out itineraries day by day, organising activities into a schedule before or during a trip.

For travellers who want a clear plan, this approach works well.

However many people don’t travel in a perfectly structured way. Instead, they collect places over time. A restaurant saved months in advance. A beach discovered on a previous trip. A recommendation shared by a friend. These places don’t always fit neatly into a single itinerary.

Over time, travel becomes less about planning one trip and more about building a collection of places you want to visit or return to.

Pin Drop focuses on that idea. Instead of organising everything into a fixed schedule, it lets you build a personal map of places. You can save locations whenever you discover them, organise them with simple tags and revisit them whenever you need.

For people who think in places rather than itineraries, this often feels far more natural.

How it works

From scattered saves to one map you keep for good.

01

Bring your places across

Import everywhere you have already saved from a spreadsheet, export or another app. However many, they map instantly with no limits.

02

Make it yours

Tag and group places into trips, cities and wish lists, and add your own notes and photos.

03

Take it everywhere

One map on your phone and the web, kept in sync, so it is with you at home and on the road.

Why people switch

No limits, nothing lost, easy to share.

No pin limit

Keep saving without hitting a cap or deleting old places to make room.

A map that lasts

Your places stay put and keep growing, trip after trip, year after year.

Notes and photos

Remember why you saved somewhere, not just that you did.

Yours to share

Send a place or a whole list to the people you are travelling with, no sign up needed.
