Drop A Pin is an image-based discovery app that helps users find hidden gems and unique small businesses, both locally and around the world. The app makes it easy to discover new places through curated photos, detailed location tags, and real user reviews. With Drop A Pin, users can organize their travel plans by saving spots into specific boards, to plan future trips or bucket lists. They can also share their own favorite finds, helping others discover must-visit locations.
There are 3 main features of the app:
View a feed page with images of "hidden gem" places in a specific area of your choosing with the location/address tagged to see other posts, reviews, hours, etc.
Save specific images/places into folders (like Pinterest boards) to plan a future trip or bucket list
Post your favorite finds on your account for others to view/save; add these to your boards and keep track of places you've been
