What are Collections used for?2023-12-27T20:13:02+02:00

Collections help Stops’ users save their favorite stops and make interactive maps and itineraries out of them.

For example, you can share the directions to your house, a tour of Paris, your favorite zoos around the world, or the biographical journey of your life (all the houses you ever lived) or business.

You can add any stop to a Collection, even a Wikipedia-stop or a Yelp-stop.

Tip: Swipe left on any stop and add it to a Collection, then check out your Collection and organize it to make the perfect route.
