Frequently asked questions
Is MetaSpotter free?
Yes. Over 250 of the 359 decks are free on every platform, with the map, ranks, achievements and unlimited Free mode. The free version allows up to 30 new clues a day and, on Android, shows a few ads away from the questions; the web app has no ads. MetaSpotter Pro removes the ads and the limit, unlocks the 102 specialist decks (level 5 and regional) and adds advanced stats. You buy it in the Android app and, with your account, it works on the web too.
Do I need an account?
No, an account is optional. Without one, your progress is stored on the device and you can export and import it as a file from Profile. With a free account, which you open with Google or a code sent to your email, it syncs by itself between the web and your phone; on iPhone you will also be able to sign in with Apple.
Does it work offline?
On Android, yes: you can download each deck with its images, and downloaded decks work with no connection. The web app needs a connection, although the browser caches what you have already loaded.
Is there an iPhone and Android app?
The Android app is on Google Play. The iPhone app is on its way: the link will show up on this page as soon as it is published. Meanwhile, the web app works in your phone browser and can be added to the home screen.
Can I import decks from other apps?
Not yet. You can export and import MetaSpotter progress as a file, or sync it across devices with an account.
Is MetaSpotter affiliated with GeoGuessr?
No. It is an independent project. The "Practise on GeoGuessr" links open the public maps that were the source for each deck.
