How to leave a note at a location on Android
Short answer: use an app that saves your current coordinates with the note in one tap, so you don't have to type an address or name every pin. Herelet does this and can keep the note sealed until you come back.
What a location note is for
Parking spots, the bench where something happened, a restaurant to try again, a note for next time ("ask for the window seat"). The place is the reminder.
Steps
- Open the app where you are standing.
- Tap "Leave a letter here". Your location is pinned automatically.
- Write a line, add photos if you want, pick when it should open.
- Save. The pin appears on your memory map.
Common problems
Location is off or inaccurate indoors: drag the pin on the map before saving. Too many clicks: skip the title; it is optional. Lost notes when changing phones: export a backup file first.
FAQ
Do I need to type an address?
No. The app uses your current GPS position. You can move the pin if it's off.
Can I add more than one photo?
Yes, up to 5 photos per note in Herelet.
Are location notes private?
In Herelet they stay on your phone with no account or server.
