The map

Campaigns, Spots, and the drops you've placed on the map.

TraceReach Drop plays this walkthrough on the live app, pointing at one control at a time and waiting for the press. Read its steps here first, in the app's own words, on any phone or laptop.

  1. 01

    Campaigns and Spots

    Your hub groups its work into campaigns, and a campaign's Spots mark where its materials go. The map shows both, plus the drops you've made.

  2. 02

    Open the map

    Tap the map button. The camera waits until you come back.

  3. 03

    Your campaigns

    Tap here to show one campaign's drops on the map. The map opens on All campaigns every time.

  4. 04

    Find yourself

    Tap this to snap the map back to your current location.

  5. 05

    Drops and Spots

    Switch between your recorded drops and the campaign's Spots. The Spots panel also lists the hub's zones and runs, wherever you're standing.

  6. 06

    Drop at a Spot

    A press and hold on the map adds a Spot. Tapping a Spot opens it with its range and status, and from inside that range its Drop a design button takes you back to the camera with the Spot attached. The card also says who's on the Spot: tap that line to put yourself on it, or take yourself off.

  7. 07

    Back to camera

    Tap the camera button to go back.

  8. 08

    Map done

    Pick a campaign, find its Spots, and record drops inside their range. The map fills in as you go.

Play it in Drop
