MapQ

Ever just want to know how a few places sit relative to each other? That is the only thing this app does.

Type a place, a pin drops. Type another, another pin drops. That alone is enough to build the layout in your head.

No turn-by-turn directions, no business listings, no reviews. Only where things are in relation to each other.

■ Type, and the pins pile up

• Suggestions appear as you type a place, station, or landmark
• Tap a suggestion and the pin drops instantly
• Pins are numbered and color-coded, so you never lose track

■ See the whole picture

• Every time you add a pin, the map zooms to fit them all
• One button returns you to the overview whenever you want
• Connect the pins with a line to see their order and total distance

■ Address and phone for businesses

• Tap a pin or chip to open a detail card
• Copy the address, or tap the phone number to call

■ Where you are, and which way you're facing

• Your location shows as a blue dot
• A blue cone on the map shows the direction you're facing
• The compass reads out both bearing and degrees, like "NE 38°"
• Distances from you to each pin are listed at a glance

■ Simple and private

• No account, no ads
• Pins are stored on your device only. Nothing is sent anywhere

For planning trips, scoping out a business destination, choosing a neighborhood, or checking how a listing sits relative to the station and the supermarket.

The fastest way to build a map in your head.
