Does anyone use this app? I saw it mentioned on a few sites (yes,probably paid advertorial) so signed up but unsure about it so far.
It uses your location to search for travel tips (supposedly more off the beaten track ones) others have posted.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but it's a photo app that lets you post the pics on a world map. So you can see hotspot and highlights. Or something.
I am not really getting the added value from for example instagram.

You follow people if you want, who post tips - a photo and text- on any location. Or you can search for a location.
Say you're in Sicily, it will pick up the GPS from your phone and show you tips that have been posted for nearby locations. So it could be that someone recommends a great gallery/bar/waterfall that's just down the road. I guess it's a crowdsourced travel guide.
Haven't used it abroad yet though.
