## Description

Open any .kmz file on your iPhone and see your hikes, photo spots, and routes come to life on a 3D map. Drop pins, search places, and measure distances instantly.

Bring your KMZ files to life on a beautiful 3D map.

KMZ Previewer turns the .kmz files you've collected from Google Earth, hiking apps, photo planners, and trail websites into a fully interactive experience on your iPhone. Pinch to zoom in on a mountain pass, tilt for a realistic 3D view, and switch between four gorgeous map styles in a single tap.
Whether you're previewing your next hike, planning a photo trip, or just revisiting where you've been — KMZ Previewer keeps everything one tap away.

WHAT YOU CAN DO
• Open any KMZ file — straight from Files, iCloud, Mail, or the share sheet. Placemarks, paths, and polygons all render automatically.
• Pick your map style — Standard, Terrain, Hybrid, or Satellite. Every style supports realistic 3D elevation so mountains look like mountains.
• Search any place — find restaurants, landmarks, addresses, or trailheads. Tap a result to see the straight-line distance to the nearest point in your KMZ and to your current location.
• Drop your own pins — tap the map to drop a pin at exact GPS coordinates, or type latitude and longitude manually. Name each one, edit it later, and drag-to-reposition with a long-press.
• See it all at once — KMZ features in orange, your custom pins in green, search results in blue, and your location in the classic blue dot.
• Share your work — send the loaded KMZ via AirDrop, Messages, Mail, or save it back to Files.
• Your places persist — the last opened KMZ and every custom pin you create are saved across app launches automatically.

BUILT FOR iPHONE
KMZ Previewer is a native SwiftUI app built on Apple MapKit. It's lightweight, has no ads, no tracking, no accounts, and works fully offline once a map area has been viewed.

PERFECT FOR
• Hikers previewing routes shared by friends or downloaded from trail websites
• Photographers planning trips around saved photo spots
• Travelers reviewing custom Google Earth itineraries on the go
• Anyone who needs a quick, no-friction way to look at a .kmz on iPhone

PRIVACY
KMZ Previewer keeps everything on your device. Your location is only used to show your position on the map and to compute distances — it's never sent anywhere. No analytics, no third-party SDKs, no accounts.

Open a KMZ. See your trip. Plan the next one.
