## Description

Automatic travel diary: Retrace spots your trips straight from your Photos library and replays each one on a map. No albums, no account, no server.

Retrace reads your existing Photos library and automatically figures out where you've been. No albums to build, no tagging — every trip gets its own map replay: the route in order, with the photos that belong to it.

HOW IT WORKS
Retrace scans your Photos library (references only, no copies) and automatically determines your home base. Photos with a time and distance jump from home get grouped into a trip. Every trip gets a MapKit-based replay: the route in chronological order, with your photos placed along the way. New photos are picked up automatically whenever your library changes.

WHY RETRACE
• Fully automatic — no albums, no manual sorting
• Chronological map replay of every trip
• Privacy-first: no account, no server of its own
• Sync via your own iCloud (CloudKit) between iPhone and iPad
• Works with the photos you already have — no copies, nothing new added

PRIVACY
Your photos and location data never leave your device, except via your own iCloud to sync between your own devices. Retrace has no server of its own, requires no account, and collects nothing.

Your last 3 trips are always free to view, including the full map replay. Older trips and an unlimited archive can be unlocked for a one-time €4.99 payment.
