Ikuzo: Travel Map & Spots

Do you save places everywhere: in Google Maps, in your photos, in a notebook, in tabs open for months? Ikuzo puts them all on one real travel map, made for travelers, photographers and curious explorers.

Each spot gets its icon (temple, onsen, café, waterfall, abandoned place...), a status so you know where you stand (to visit, visited, favorite...) and its best seasons, so you never miss the cherry blossoms or the autumn leaves. Even with thousands of spots, the map stays readable.

ON THE ROAD
• Find the places to visit around you, filtered by status, type or season
• Get directions to a spot in one tap with Google Maps
• Add a place by tapping the map, searching its name, pasting GPS coordinates, or straight from a point of interest
• Follow your trip plans day by day, with the route on the map and the distance and time to each next stop
• Start the day on Home: a spot picked for you, what is coming up, what is in season
• Explore free public maps and copy them to make them yours
• Share a spot with a link, or copy it to another map

AT HOME
The web app (https://ikuzo.app) is great on a big screen to organize your maps and prepare your trip plans. Everything syncs with your phone.

Ikuzo doesn't replace Google Maps, it completes it: keep Google Maps to look up an address, and Ikuzo for all the places that truly matter to you. Your travel map and trip planner, in your pocket.

Ikuzo is made in Japan by a traveler and photographer. Feedback, an idea? Write to me from https://ikuzo.app/contact, I read everything.
