Ato: Explore Together

Explore the world together. Ato is a cooperative mapping adventure where every walk, run, and trip fills in a shared world map. See where you've been, discover where friends have explored, and uncover places no one has visited yet. Join a global community of explorers building a collective picture of human adventure—one hexagon at a time.

Your past adventures, rediscovered
Already have years of walks and trips behind you? Import your entire history from Strava, sync from Apple Watch, or pull location data from your photo library. Watch your map light up with hexes from places you'd almost forgotten about.

Record your future journeys
Sync new workouts automatically, import photos as you take them, or tap to check in wherever you are. Each hex can only be checked into once per day, so every visit counts. Whether it's your morning commute or a trip across the world, your journey is being recorded.

Share your week with Postcards
Send a postcard with up to 4 photos from the past 7 days, add a caption, and tag where each was taken. Tap any photo's pin to jump straight to that hex on the map. Cheer on fellow explorers with hearts, leave comments, and browse postcards shared from any hex you find.

See where others explore
View where explorers around the globe have been on the shared world map. Filter by everyone or just your mutuals to see where friends have roamed. Follow other explorers, keep your profile private, or browse profiles to find inspiration for new places to visit.

Meet your Hexmates
See which explorers have covered the most hexes in common with you. Open a Hexmate to browse the countries and cities you share, then highlight the exact hexes you both explored on the map.

Discover heatmaps
See your exploration patterns come alive with personal heatmaps that highlight your most-visited areas in warm gradients. Switch to global heatmaps to discover the world's most popular spots.

Find your missing hexes
Tap any city to see which hexes you've explored and which remain undiscovered. City Explorer shows hexes others have found but you haven't—plan your routes to fill in the gaps and complete neighborhoods, cities, or entire countries.

Compete on leaderboards
Check global leaderboards to see how your discoveries stack up, or dive into city-specific rankings to find out who's explored your hometown the most.

Stay connected
Get notified when someone follows you or interacts with your postcards. Tap a like or comment alert to jump straight to the postcard. Tap any hex to see who discovered it first, who visited most recently, and browse the full list of explorers.

Your data, your control
Mark any hex, day, or city as incorrect data to remove it from your stats. Set any hex to incognito mode to appear anonymous while keeping your personal stats intact.
