SUMMARY: Pinpoint your exact location and save it for later viewing

Looking for a simple way to keep track of all the places you've been to? Locations is a pretty simple app that allows you to do just that. Just load up the app when you're at any location and press the add button. There you go, you've basically just pressed a pin into your own map.

While there isn't really much visually to this app, what it does let you do is create multiple lists for you to use to store locations. You can name each list whatever you want then simply open them up and start tagging locations. You can either be at the locations and let the A-GPS pick it up or you can just enter it in manually and save it as one of your locations.

From there you can load up any of the locations and add notes and pictures to them. The pictures taken from your photo album tend to look pixelated in this app for some reason, but it isn't that big of a deal. The notes also just allow you to add additional information down so you can reference it at a later point.

While this app does add features like notes and photos, it doesn't do much more than what you could already do with the Maps app. While the Maps app won't show you the exact latitude and longitude of your location, chances are you won't be needing to phone that in to anyone anytime soon.
