Photo history and manual corrections in Flags Map

Flags: Countries Visited Map can use photo-library information to suggest countries for a private map. Suggestions save time, but they are not a perfect travel record. The app also supports manual additions so you can correct the history according to your own evidence and definition of a visit.

Use photos as a prompt, not a verdict

Photos may contain useful dates and location information, but not every journey has them. Metadata can be missing, an image can be saved later than a trip, and a photo alone cannot decide whether a transit should count. Review the suggestion before treating it as part of your collection.

Add the places the library missed

Manual additions are for journeys without usable photos, older visits and the exceptions that matter to you. They also let you keep a consistent personal rule: for example, whether you count a country only after leaving an international transit area.

Keep the map private and editable

The product listing describes an on-device approach without an account, cloud or GPS tracking. That means your map can be a personal record rather than a live feed. You remain responsible for the entries you choose to add.

For the personal-definition question, see how many countries you have visited.
