BackHere
An app that saves where you are standing, such as a parking spot, a hotel or a station exit, and guides you back with an arrow, the distance left and the walking time. It runs entirely on the phone, needs no account and works without a signal.

Core capabilities
One tap to save a place
Step out of the car, tap save, done. The app records the coordinates along with a category, a note and a photo. There is no form to fill in, which matters when you are in a hurry or your hands are full.
An arrow, the distance and the walking time
When you come back, the app shows an arrow pointing straight at the saved place, the distance left and the minutes on foot. It only uses the phone's GPS and compass, so it still works in an underground car park with no signal.
Notes and photos for each place
"Level B2, pillar C17" is easier to remember than a pair of coordinates, so every place can have a note and photos. The photos are stored inside the app, not mixed into your photo library.
No account, no uploads
The app runs entirely on your phone. You do not create an account, and your list of places is never sent anywhere. The privacy page lists exactly what data the app uses and the few cases where anything leaves the device.
Works without a connection
Only the map background needs the internet. The arrow, the distance, your notes and your photos all work offline: underground, abroad without roaming, or when your data plan runs out.
Send a place to someone
You can send a saved place through your messaging app as a map link that opens on any phone. Only the link and the place name are sent; your list stays on your phone.
