Travellike it's1999
OfflineClub is a travel app for exploring cities the way we did before phones did it for us: guidebook routes from locals, a camera with 24 shots a day, and a map that fills up like a scrapbook.
3,463 people already in the club. Coming soon to iOS and Android.

How a day goes
Give or take a few wrong turns.
- Stop 1
Pick up a route
Hit lists written by people who actually live there: the bakery that sells out by ten, the bar with no sign. Follow every pin, or wander off and see what happens.
by locals, not algorithms
navigate your hit list - Stop 2
Take 24 photos. That's it.
The camera gives you 24 shots a day. No retakes, no deleting, no burst mode. You'll take fewer photos and remember more of them.

capture moments - Stop 3
Learn the magic words
A pocket phrasebook for wherever you've landed. Tick a phrase off once you've actually used it on someone.

Watch the map fill up
Photos, notes and phrases get pinned where they happened. Trip by trip, your map turns into a scrapbook of everywhere you've been.
see your journey
This is not a utility app.
We noticed something: the more photos you take and pins you save, the less a trip is about actually being there.
The best bits of travelling rarely come from staring at a map app. They come from getting a little lost, talking to strangers, and walking into places you'd never have found on a list.
