One travel app for all your adventures. Plan, track, and relive your trips, now with a revamped, beautiful world map and the option to travel together.
Hi PH community, any fellow travelers here? 👋🗺️
I’m Job, one of the founders of Polarsteps. It’s been almost ten years since our launch on PH and our app has changed so much that we’ve been eager to share an update with you.
It never felt quite like the right time, but we’ve been busy launching a succession of massive new features and redesigns to our app that we’re really excited about. They’re all meant to help you make the most out of your travels. That’s why we figured that now would be a great time to ask for your feedback.
So, what’s new in the Polarsteps app?
🌍 Automatically track and plot your travels on a completely revamped, beautiful world map. Add photos, videos and stories from the road and share your journey with friends and family (or keep it to yourself, you have full privacy control).
👯 Travel Together: our most requested feature has finally arrived! You can now create trips collaboratively with up to 5 friends.
🗺️ Plan your trips with our free travel guides to 400+ world destinations, curated by expert editors. Directly build your dream itinerary with our travel planner.
📚 After your trip has ended, create a unique printed Travel Book at the touch of a button with our improved editor, filled with your pictures and stories.
We couldn’t be more excited about these new features and would love to hear your feedback. What’s your number one feature we should work on next? We’ll be hanging out in the comment section and are happy to answer any questions you might have!

Who hunted Polarsteps?
Polarsteps was hunted by Job Harmsen. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it. Hunters typically write the first comment explaining why a product is worth attention, and their followers are notified the moment they post. Around 79% of featured launches on Product Hunt are self-hunted by their makers, but a well-known hunter still acts as a signal of quality to the rest of the community.
