murmur - Leave words on a map

■ Does this sound familiar?
・You saw something on a walk and want to leave a word about it, right there

・You want to write without counting numbers or followers

murmur is a map for those small words.

■ Features

◆ Words tied to places (mur)
Write a short note and it stays on the map where you wrote it. No sign-up is needed, and posts show no names or profiles. You can add one photo, too: take it on the spot or pick one from your photos (up to 10 murs with a photo at a time).

◆ Words for today
Choose how long a mur stays, from 1 to 48 hours. When the time is up, it fades from the map.

◆ A word for a shop (must)
Leave one word per person for a shop or any place. The word with the most favorites shows on the map as a speech bubble. Search by the shop's name, its genre, or what people wrote. Words written on the spot get a pin mark.

◆ Look nearby
Set a radius and see the words left around you. Pick one of five steps, from 1km to 100km.

◆ See the world
Browse words left in cities around the world, including places you have never been.

◆ Answer together (mood)
From time to time, we ask everyone a question, like "How's the weather right now?" Tap an answer and it appears on the map as a regular mur. Zoom out to see the most common answer in each area.

◆ Build together (monument)
Answer the mood near a monument on the map to help build it. When enough people join, it is complete. Share an image showing how many more people a monument under construction needs.

◆ Compete in teams (match)
From time to time a match opens: pick a team, like Red or White, and see which one gets more people. Leave a mur to join, and your team's flag goes up where you left it. Get the result in a notification and share it as an image.

◆ Translated on your device
Words in other languages can be translated on your device (on iPhone, iOS 18 or later). Nothing about what you read is ever sent anywhere.

◆ No following, no popularity ranking
There are favorites and replies with no names attached. You choose whether to accept replies when you post. No following, no followers. Nothing rises to the top because it is popular.

■ About location
