About Mapapal
Share the journey, not just the destination.
Mapapal turns a trip into a live story that friends and family can follow from any browser. Start recording on iPhone, iPad or Android, choose who can see it, and share one simple link.

From your pocket to their screen
Start a trip
Set up your trip before you set off, then let the Mapapal app record your route while you drive, cycle, run, walk or explore.
Choose your audience
Keep it private, share it with your Mapapal pals, or make it public when that suits the journey.
Share and follow
Send a link so the people you choose can follow progress live without installing an app.
Your journeys stay useful.
Signed-in users can revisit routes, replay them on the map, review distance, speed and elevation, update sharing, and export recorded positions as CSV for use in other map services.
- Live when it matters: see new positions as the journey unfolds.
- Privacy you control: choose private, pals or public for each trip.
- Built for any screen: follow from a modern phone, tablet or desktop browser.
Save an anonymous trip link if you want to return.
You can use Mapapal without an account. Anonymous trips are not included in Mapapal's public trip listings or sitemap, but anyone with the unique sharing link can still follow the trip. Because the trip is not attached to an account, Mapapal cannot restore access if you lose that link.
