Mapped For Mac

It is sometimes much easier to remember important appointments or organize your travel plan if you can visualize events on a map.

Mapped is a lightweight OS X app that provides this function, as it enables you to place pins on its included map and assign appointments, as well as attach notes and files to each of them.

Mapped is ready to be put to use as soon as you start it up. You can search for a specific town or city, and then place pins in relevant locations. However, it would help if there were multiple pin styles to choose from, as it is difficult to differentiate between them when a lot of them are added to the map.

Of course, this app is especially helpful for people who travel significant amounts on a daily basis. It makes it much easier to get an idea of the distances involved and access important information with a single mouse click.

Let's say, for example, that you are looking to purchase a house in a new city. You could mark the location of all the ones you are interested in on your map, and save viewing appointments for each of them.

You can attach photos of each building, documents related to the purchase, or any other file that may be of interest. These can then be opened directly from the application's interface.

If you only need to get an overall idea of all your scheduled appointments, you can view a summary, and then filter the ones you are not interested in.

Entries can be organized into multiple categories and distances can be calculated in metric or imperial units. Sadly though, time cannot be displayed in the 24-hour format, which is much easier to understand for users in certain locations.

Overall, Mapped is a straightforward map-based scheduling application that can be very useful for people who travel a lot on a daily basis. However, it could be improved with the addition of more than one pin style and the possibility of viewing time in the 24-hour format.
