Do you often ask random passers-by for directions? A lot of people prefer asking others for directions as opposed to reading maps. And if you’ve never been to that place before, or if you just don’t speak the language, you may have a hard time navigating with or without a map and with or without the help from local passers-by. But if you leave virtual breadcrumbs behind that are only visible to you and your family, you’ll will be able to get back easily by following the path marked with your virtual breadcrumbs. And if you are ever split during your stroll over a new place, you can always meet easily by simply looking at your partners’ breadcrumbs.
Passing by an interesting place you’d love to check out on the next day? A closed museum with unconventional opening hours? A flower on the verge of blooming? A beautiful church you’d like to shoot at sunlight? Just leave a breadcrumb, and you and your partners will be able to find that place on the next day.
Oh, and did you know there’s a word for it? This sort of getting around is called “Breadcrumb navigation”. So let’s see how ARoglyph makes breadcrumb navigation easy.

Leaving an ARoglyph mark is as easy as launching the app and tapping on the display.

Why “breadcrumbs”? The term is taken from the tale named “Hansel and Gretel”, in which the two children dropped a trail of breadcrumbs so that they could find their way back. In today’s digital world, “breadcrumbs” are often left on the map of your handheld device.

Leaving an ARoglyph mark is as easy as launching the app and tapping on the display. There are no house numbers or street names to worry about. The mark will be placed automatically at your current location – as often as you like.

You can leave marks that are strictly personal, visible to a limited circle of select contacts you’re your family members, or make them completely public. For the purpose of breadcrumb navigation, leaving breadcrumbs that are only visible to the members of your group (or your family members) would be the best idea.

Once set up, your mark can be used to leave and reply to comments.

ARoglyph marks are great for communication. Once set up, your mark can be used to leave and reply to comments. Passing by a closed gift shop? Add its opening hours to your mark as a comment. Amazed by magnificent view? Snap a picture and add it to your mark! Want to have your group gather at a certain time around a certain place? Just place a mark and leave a comment requesting everyone to check in. It’s just that easy.
