Photos on every place
Put your photos where they happened.
Your camera roll has the pictures. Haunts has the places. Pin them together and every spot on your timeline gets its own photos.
- 1
Tap a place
Open any stop on your timeline and add up to 4 photos, an emoji and one line.
- 2
Pick only what you want
The iPhone photo picker opens. Haunts sees only the photos you choose, never your whole library.
- 3
Your day, in pictures
Each place on the timeline shows its photo. Scroll back and the day comes back with it.
One day in Haunts
From coffee to Sunday recap.
Real screens from the test build, with demo places. The demo video comes with the App Store launch.
All day
It logs while you live.
Stay somewhere about 5 minutes and it lands on your timeline, named from Apple Maps, with how you got there in between.
Tonight
Add the photos you took.
Up to 4 photos, an emoji and a line on any place. Wrong name? Change place once and it remembers.
Anytime
See your week on a map.
Every place from the last 7 days as a pin. Filter by food, coffee, workouts and more.
Sunday
Your week, wrapped.
Places you went, your #1 spot and your workouts on one card. Share it to Stories or save it to Photos.
Sound familiar?
You go places. Then they blur.
- “Wait, what was that ramen place?”
You were there two months ago. It was great. The name is gone, and so is the street.
- “I’ll keep a journal this year.”
Day 1: three paragraphs. Day 4: nothing. Writing it down every night is a chore nobody keeps up.
- “Where did my Timeline go?”
Google Maps moved Timeline off the web. Years of places now sit in an export file you never open.
How it works
Set it once. Forget it’s there.
- 1
Allow location
Tap Allow, then Always Allow. Haunts uses the visits iOS already detects, so it does not run GPS all day.
- 2
Just live your day
Stay somewhere for about 5 minutes and it shows up on Today with its name and a tag: food, coffee, workout, fun or outdoors.

Get your week, wrapped
Every week a recap card sums up your places, your #1 spot and your workouts. Share it to Stories or save it to Photos.

FAQ
Good to know.
Can I download it yet?
Not yet. Haunts is in testing on iPhone and comes to the App Store first. Leave your email and you will get one email when it is live.
Who can see where I go?
Only you. Your history is stored on your iPhone. There is no account, no server, no feed and no friends list, and no analytics or ad tools are in the app. Details are in the privacy policy.
Will it drain my battery?
Haunts listens for the visits iOS already detects instead of running GPS all the time. A place shows up after you stay about 5 minutes, sometimes a little later indoors.
Can I add photos to a place?
Yes. Tap any place on your timeline and add up to 4 photos with the iPhone photo picker, plus an emoji and a short note. Haunts only sees the photos you pick, keeps a copy inside the app on your iPhone and never uploads them.
Can I bring in my Google Maps Timeline?
Yes. Export Timeline from Google Maps on your phone (Your Timeline › Export) and choose the file in Haunts. It is read on your iPhone, never uploaded. Free shows the last 30 days; Pro opens every past year.
What does Pro add?
Monthly and yearly Wrapped, every past year from your import, sharing without the made with Haunts line, and your timeline beyond 30 days. $24.99 a year with a 7-day free trial, or $3.99 a month. Logging, the weekly recap and export stay free.
Is it on Android?
Not for now. Haunts is built for iPhone first.
Go somewhere. We’ll remember it.
Your life, wrapped. Every week.
