So we've been tinkering away at a travel app that got a number of nifty features. Firef.ly is a smart, location-aware travel app which acts as your local guide and intimate travel journal. We remember where you go so you won’t forget! Firef.ly passively and actively stitches together the most important moments of any trip into a digital story of your travels. We integrate the best of trip planning, travel guides, journaling and mementos in a beautiful experience, designed for today’s smartphone-enabled traveller. We believe travel is about new experiences in your backyard and out in the world. We believe that these experiences should be recommended, captured and shared with the world. Firef.ly is here to help you do just that.

@shawnlow nice to see Firef.ly here. When you say "passively" does it mean it will suck my battery?

@azizmorsly Hey Aziz! Great question! We use a combination of GPS, cell signal, wifi signal and broad location updates to work out where you are. While use of the GPS does strain the battery a little, we've work hard to ensure that users can get a day's use out of the phone. I believe that Pokemon Go drains the phone more than Firef.ly does! :)

Hey everyone, I designed the maps for Firef.ly. The app was already gorgeous, but once they plugged in a @mapbox basemap it really shined! I was really impressed with the care and thought the team put into the design of the app. Every experience was carefully thought out and beautifully designed with a bold, opinionated style. If you have any questions about the map I'd be happy to answer them!

@themapsmith @mapbox Thanks Stephen. Yes, the team worked closely with @themapsmith in order to get our 'look and feel' for our maps the way we wanted it. You'll noticed we have a 'day' map and a 'night' map. And various elements to denote roads, parks and other fun cartography-related goodness. Feel free to ping us if you've any questions about the maps.
