Why do I not get maps & how to add them?

What makes Journi so great are our automatic maps, but what if you do not get them automatically? 

First, let's find out how we generate those maps in the first place 😉 
Modern technology allows us to have extra data saved in pictures - such as the date and time it was taken, where it was taken, which camera settings there were, and more. Journi then uses this thing, called Metadata, to sort your pictures chronologically and add dates and maps for you 🗺️

You can check if your pictures have metadata if you go to the details or file properties:

• On most phones, you can swipe up or click the little info icon to get to that. 
• On a PC you can right-click on the picture and then go to details to see more

You can also use our feature to add your maps manually:

Add maps

1. Click on a page to open more edit options
2. Click on the + button and then choose the option "Map"
3. You can now long-tap to add a pin or click the button on the bottom left to add a location via text
4. Click "Save Map"

Edit maps

1. Click on the map you want to edit, you'll see it turns blue
2. Click on the button "Edit Map"
   • Now you can pinch your fingers to zoom in and out
   • To remove a pin simply tap on it and then click Delete
3. You can also change the map style by clicking on the button "Change Map Style"
