Isper Maps Beta
Isper Maps Beta

Beta Tester's Guide (Build 7)

This is the last build before the major update with integration of "Isper".

In next major update, you can ask Isper such as "Find trendy and cozy coffee spots in Seongsu" or "Find late-night restaurant/bar near me", then Isper finds places with web search, then show places in the map right away. Otherwise, you can simply put social media URL like before to auto-pin places.

Also in next build,

  • Fix various errors.

  • Ability to share a user-created place via URL.

  • From the search bar, find other users, follow/following, and view their places.

  • Public (any user can see my saved places) and Private (only users I approve to follow can see my saved places) visibility.
