Footprints

Footprints™ provides an easy way to record favorite places and revisit those places. A footprint consists of a
photo you take of a location such as a restaurant or sightseeing destination stored together with a precise
GPS position and other information about that location such as the street address and phone number.

The next time you want to visit the same place, simply access the footprint. You can then dial the phone
number or view the location in Google Maps.
