Walkpast

Every place has a story. Walkpast shows the ones you walk past. Open the map to see places nearby where something happened: a gallows hill, a plague pit, a lost river, an old prison, a battle in the street. Each place links to its Wikipedia article, so you can read the full story and see where it comes from. START A STROLL Start a Free Stroll and put your phone away. When you come close to a place with a story, Walkpast sends a quiet notification. Tap it to see the place. Alerts are limited so you are not interrupted, and a place only tells you once a day. PLAN A ROUTE Choose 2 km, 5 km or a distance of your own, start where you are or pick a spot on the map, and Walkpast suggests up to three walking routes past places with a story. Follow the stops in order, skip one if you like, and you'll be told if you leave the route. Save routes to walk another day, or continue one you started. A MAP OF THE PAST • Places in Sweden and the UK, starting in Stockholm, London and Edinburgh • Every place has a Wikipedia source, shown with its licence • Standard and satellite map views, with 3D buildings and terrain • Look Around street-level previews where available • Search for places on Walkpast by name • Open any place in Apple Maps or Google Maps KEEP THE PLACES YOU DISCOVER Save a place with the bookmark button to return to it later. Places announced during a stroll appear in your visited list. Filter the map to saved, visited or unvisited places. Your saved places, visited places and routes stay on your device, and places you have seen stay available when you lose your connection. ADD WHAT YOU KNOW Know a place with a story? Add it: say what happened and when, find its Wikipedia article and pin the spot. Every submission is reviewed before it appears on the map. You can also report a mistake or suggest a change. NO ACCOUNT, NO ADS Walkpast needs no sign-in and shows no ads. If you enjoy it, you can leave a small tip in Settings. Nothing is locked behind it. Your location is used only to show places near you, to plan routes and to alert you on a walk. You decide when it is on, and you can turn it off at any time. Walkpast is a history app, not a guide to shops or restaurants. Places are chosen for what happened there.
