TravelBoast
Animated map videos of your trips for social media.
About
TravelBoast turns a list of destinations into a playful animated map video — a little vehicle hops between your stops — ready to post on Instagram or TikTok. With hundreds of vehicle icons, photos at stops, and chroma-key backgrounds even on the free tier, it became a staple of the travel-video trend (its Play Store listing claims 15M+ iOS users).
Be clear-eyed about what it is: template-driven animation, not generative AI, and free exports carry a watermark with ads in the app. It makes trip recaps, not trip plans.
