Visited alternatives
Best Visited app alternatives in 2026
Visited has been a default visited-countries tracker for years, but the category has moved on. Here are the best alternatives worth trying in 2026.
Visited is a reliable, tenured visited-countries tracker with US-state support and a clean map. It does its job. But most modern travelers want more than a checklist — trip memory pages, free city tracking, viral share formats, and deeper regional coverage. If you are shopping for a Visited alternative in 2026, these are the seven picks worth knowing about — ranked from best overall for iPhone travelers down to more specialized choices.
Why people leave Visited
- They want trip memory pages with photos and notes, not just a checklist
- They want city tracking without paying for a premium tier
- They want granular European regional groupings (Nordics, Balkans, Mediterranean)
- They want viral export formats like the flag calendar for Instagram and TikTok
- They want a modern iOS-first design instead of a cross-platform app
- They want travel stats beyond country counts (days abroad, longest trip, explorer type)

If cross-platform matters, Been stays the default. If you want auto-GPS for upcoming trips, Polarsteps. If you want the closest philosophical twin to Voyy with Android support, TripMemo.
Frequently asked questions
What is the best Visited app alternative for iPhone?
Voyy. It matches Visited's visited-countries core and adds a memory journal layer: trip pages with photos and notes, Spotify soundtracks, the viral flag calendar export, free city tracking, and the most granular European regional coverage on iOS.
Is there a free Visited alternative?
Yes. Voyy is free to download and includes country tracking, city tracking, trip pages with photos and notes, the flag calendar, and home screen widgets — several of those are premium in Visited. Voyy Pro unlocks European regions, US states, 400+ subdivisions, advanced stats, and cloud sync.
What is the best Visited alternative for Android?
Been or TripMemo. Been is the cross-platform visited-countries checklist with the longest tenure. TripMemo is the memory-first manual-entry alternative and the closest philosophical twin to Voyy — without the iOS-exclusive polish.
Does Voyy track US states like Visited?
Yes. US states tracking is part of Voyy Pro, alongside 400+ subdivisions across 6 countries — which is broader subdivision coverage than Visited offers.
Does Voyy have European region tracking?
Yes, with Voyy Pro. Voyy tracks European regional groupings like the Nordics, Balkans, and Mediterranean — the most granular regional coverage available on iOS. Visited does not currently offer European region tracking as a first-class concept.
