Map
Friends' open plans are pins on a real map. Long-press anywhere to start a new plan there. Mapbox dark, 3D buildings, no feed.
Made in Canada · Rebuilt 2026
Your group chat
is a map.
Every plan you make with friends is a chat, a pin, and an album — all at once. See who's free nearby, knock on a friend's door, and let every hangout freeze into a Lit Memory.
Free. No feed. No followers. Just your people.

What is Lit Maps?
It's the group chat you already use to plan hangouts — except it knows where.
You already text the group "pizza tonight?" Lit Maps is that thread — but it pins itself to a place, shows you which friends are free nearby, and when the night ends it crystallizes into a shared photo album with the people who were there.
Knock
One tap. Both phones play a doorknock sound. "Are you home? Wanna hang?" — the shortest text you'll ever send.
🔥
Lit Memories
A friend's profile shows only the photos you two are both in. Not their highlight reel — your shared moments.

No feed. No followers.
Made for hangouts
that actually happen.
Other apps reward you for posting. Lit Maps rewards you for showing up. Plans turn into Memories automatically — no captions, no algorithm, no broadcasting to people who weren't there.
- → Plans become Memories automatically.
- → Public, open, or private — your call per plan.
- → No likes. No follower counts. No strangers.

Common questions
Is every plan public? +
No. Every plan is one of three modes: private (just invitees), open (friends can crash), or public (anyone with the link can RSVP).
What happens to a plan after the hangout? +
It freezes into a Lit Memory automatically — the group chat plus every photo posted becomes a shared album for the people who were there. No manual archiving.
Why see only mutual photos on a friend's profile? +
Because a friend's highlight reel is for strangers. Their photos with you are what you actually want to look back on. That's a Lit Memory.
Where is Lit Maps made? +
Built in Canada. The original 2018 version was a London, Ontario project — rebuilt from scratch in 2026 with a group-chat-first model.
Plans, places, and photos —
