Take a moment and think about your last family vacation, road trip, or weekend getaway. What memories do you have? How were they captured? Do you remember what you saw or where you went? Over time you may have posted a few of those memories on social media, but can you even find those posts now?

Today, The Traveler is there to help capture and organize those memories, no matter where your travels may take you. With recorded paths using GPS and Google Maps, the app follows your every step. Captured photos, videos, sketches, audio clips and location markers are geotagged along the path with additional options for notes and place information. Combined with a "guide nearby" feature including more than 9000 guides from 100 countries, fitness activity tracking with Google Fit, and detailed trip journaling capabilities, The Traveler stands apart from other travel journals.

And now, with The Traveler Pass, you can upload all of your memories to the cloud and share them for all your family and friends to see at www.mytravelerapp.com.
