San Diego spots, the quick version.
How many spots does Photerra have in San Diego?
52 and counting — each one a real photo pinned to the exact coordinate it was taken. New spots appear as travelers share them.
Are these San Diego spots on Google Maps?
Many aren't. Photerra's spots are photo-coordinates — viewpoints, benches, trailheads and corners with no business listing or address — so they don't show up on maps built from business directories.
How do I get to a spot with no address?
Open any spot in the Photerra app and tap once to launch Apple Maps, Google Maps, Uber or Lyft — we hand them the exact coordinates even when the place has no name.
