Features
Save places in seconds
Share a place from your maps app, paste a link, or send it from Safari. Kokoro Japan Guide reads name, address, city, district and position – and checks that the position matches the address, so places land where they belong.
Understand Japanese names
Japanese restaurant and sight names are translated into your language directly on your device. The Japanese original stays saved.
Lists and daytrips
Sort places into Food and Sightseeing, create your own lists ("Best ramen") and daytrips. See walking and transit times between stops and let the app suggest a sensible order.
Show it to the driver
One tap shows the destination in large Japanese script with the address – so any taxi driver can read it.
Works offline
Your places stay available without internet, and the app keeps map pictures for offline use.
Apple Watch
An arrow and the distance point you to your destination right from your wrist.
Safari extension
Open a place in the browser, tap the extension and send it to the app – also from your Mac to your iPhone via iCloud.
Private by design
No account, no tracking, no advertising. Your places stay on your devices and in your own iCloud. Read the privacy policy.
