Capture the location
Add a place from the map, a new photo, or a geolocated camera roll image.
Remember the place. Return when the light is right.
LensTrails is a field notebook for outdoor photographers. Save a spot, attach photos and notes, then see weather, sun path, cloud cover, and practical shoot suggestions before you go back.
Map scouting
Photo imports
Weather timing
Sun path
A scouting workflow built for real shoots.
Photo planning apps can be powerful, but they often start with a chart. LensTrails starts with the place: where you stood, what you saw, why it mattered, and when conditions are likely to make it worth returning.
Keep the scouting context
Store tags, rating, notes, photos, visit timing, and distance in one view.
Know when to return
Use live weather and seasonal signals to choose a stronger shoot window.
Every saved spot becomes a compact shoot brief.
Browse by map, list, or photos. Each location keeps its own visual memory: photos, address, distance, notes, tags, rating, planned visit month, and the fastest way to share or navigate back.
- Map, list, and photo views Move between spatial planning, scan-friendly lists, and visual recall.
- Camera roll enrichment Import geolocated photos and turn them into structured locations.
- Fast sharing Send the coordinate link or navigate back when the shoot is ready.
Suggestions that understand light, weather, and place.
LensTrails combines forecast conditions, cloud cover, sun quality, location type, tags, and long-term climate signals into readable guidance instead of making you interpret every chart from scratch.
Next visit suggestion
See the next strong shoot window with a score, suggested direction, weather, and reasoning.
Seasonal timing
Calculate the best month and time of day to return when the immediate forecast is not enough.
Weather you can act on
Current conditions, five-day forecast, sunrise and sunset, and a 24-hour cloud cover graph stay tied to the saved coordinates.
Preview the sun before you set up the tripod.
The map overlay and AR sun screen help you judge direction in the field: sunrise, sunset, current sun position, golden hour, blue hour, and the path of the light around the location.

The app stays focused in the field.
Built for photographers who collect places.
