Three marks, one map
A world map has to do more than “been there”. Your map has three layers on top of each other — visited countries, your next destination and the places where you checked in.
Visited countries
Every country you mark turns teal. The list is sorted by continent and searchable — walk through your memories once, done.
Next destination
Your upcoming destination glows coral. If you like, the map takes it from your trip calendar — and hides it again by itself after the last day of the trip.
Check-ins as dots
Every city where you rated a place or checked in appears as a dot on the map. A country isn't just colored in — it gets places you can actually look at.
Two minutes
195 countries sounds like a lot. It isn't.
You don't go through 195 countries — you tap the ten or twenty you remember. Search box, continent filter, one tap per country. The rest grows with every trip.
- Type instead of scrolling — search across all countries
- Filtered by continent so nothing gets lost
- Add more any time — nothing has to be finished at once

Scratch map, maps app or online?
The poster on the wall and the pins in your maps app both show where you've been. What they lack is everything after that: numbers, the next destination and a link you can send.
Sharing
- Scratch-off poster:
- Only whoever stands in front of the wall sees it

Frequently asked questions
How much does the world map cost?
Nothing. ShineLists is free, all features included — hosted on servers in Germany.
Does my map have to be public?
No. You decide with a toggle whether the world map appears on your profile or stays private.
How is the percentage calculated?
Across the 195 countries on Earth: every marked country counts equally — honest and transparent instead of inflated.
How is this different from a scratch-off world map?
Your map is alive: it connects to your places, check-ins and trip reports, grows with every trip and can be shared with a link — no poster on the wall needed.
Can I mark planned destinations too?
Yes. You pick your next destination as a country or let the map take it from your trip calendar; on the map it gets its own color. After the last day of the trip it disappears from your profile by itself — nothing gets deleted.
Can people see on my profile when I'm traveling?
No. Only the country is public, never the travel dates. And while you're away, the destination is hidden on your profile — otherwise anyone could read there that you're not at home.
Can I mark individual cities or places?
Yes, through your check-ins: every city where you rated a place or checked in appears as a dot on the map. The country itself you still mark with one tap.
All your countries, on one map.
