Show HN: Pinplanet – pin where you’ve been

A while back my girlfriend was telling me about how she’d love it if there was an app where she could curate all her travel memories in one place and easily show people. Being a developer, I decided to give it a shot and initially created a web app. After that gained some traction and I also noticed some limitations on iPhones, I took the plunge to learn swift and build an iOS app.

So after many difficult months of working full time and developing this on the side, I finally feel comfortable showing it off! You can pin past trips and plan new ones. On a 3D globe! Your pins can include spots you visited (restaurants, hotels, parks, etc.), reviews, photos, and travel buddies. You can also create custom screenshots of your pins to easily share.

Tech stack is swift, django, and postgres for those that are curious.

I would really appreciate feedback. Please rip the app to shreds if you think it sucks.
