TripReel turns the trips in your camera roll into journeys across a 3D globe. Travellar finds them too, then zooms into each one: the streets you walked, the stops you made and the best photos you took at each.
How it works
In the iPhone app, from the trips it finds, or in any browser, from the photos or the route you already have.
You can import Photos 📷 and Videos 🎥, routes from Google Maps 🗺️ and more, or simply pick Places 📍 on the map. Or use AI Trip Finder 🔎 (iPhone only)
Your places in order on an Animated map 🗺️ with your Photos 📷 Videos 🎥 and the highlights of your Trip 🎒
Pick a Map style 🗺️, colours and Music 🎵, then download the Reel 🎬 as a video.
Street level
A city break or a day out covers a few kilometres. Travellar's map zooms in to that scale and names every stop as the route reaches it.
The map zooms in to fit your route, flat or with 3D buildings, so a walk between a few streets reads as clearly as a drive between cities.
Labels name each stop as the route gets there, so your followers always know where you are.
Your photos and videos pop up as the route reaches each place, and every stop gets its name on the map.
Side by side
Both find the trips in your camera roll and turn them into an animated map video. TripReel flies between places on a 3D globe. Travellar follows the streets from one stop to the next, with your photos at each one.

Pick Travellar for a walk, a day out or a city break, where the streets, each stop's name and several photos at every one tell the story. It also imports Google Maps and GPX routes, and runs in the browser. Pick TripReel for a journey across countries on a 3D globe, with vehicles and flight paths. Both find the trips in your camera roll, both are free to start, and both have a Premium that removes the watermark.
Travellar zooms the map to fit the trip, whether it covers a few streets or a few countries, follows the roads and paths between the stops and names each one as the route reaches it. TripReel draws the journey on a 3D globe, labelled with the cities, regions or countries you visited.
Both start from your camera roll, reading where and when each photo was taken, and both let you add places by hand. Travellar can also start from a Google Maps route or a GPX or KML file, in the browser as well as the app.
Both look through your camera roll for trips, by date and place. TripReel turns each one into a journey across the globe. On the iPhone app, AI Trip Finder also picks the best photos of each trip, favourites first and lookalikes left out, and proposes a Reel for every trip with those photos at each stop.
Travellar shows several photos and videos at a stop under the place's name, and plays each video with its own sound. In TripReel you can add photos, videos and memos to a location in the video.
Travellar runs in the browser, on any computer or phone, and in the iOS app. TripReel is an app for iPhone, iPad and Mac, and with Premium it works offline.
Both are free to start and both sell a Premium. TripReel's, weekly, yearly or for life, removes the ads, lets you remove the watermark and adds 90 fps, more map themes and route styles. Travellar Premium removes the watermark and the end animation, unlocks every map style, smoother motion, higher resolutions on desktop and AI Trip Finder on iPhone, and starts with a free trial.
Only Travellar also turns the trip into a page of its own, with the map, every stop and its photos and details. Share the link with other travellers, or embed the page in a blog post next to the Reel.
A walk, a day out or a short road trip, where the streets and the stops are the story.
