Finding beautiful locations for your photos can often be quite a task. The app NoFilter, available for both Android and iOS, aims to offer a solution. With the app, you can find beautiful photo locations all over the world.

There are currently around 7,500 locations in the app, quite a few of which are already in the Netherlands. NoFilter says that only 1 per cent of the submitted photos/locations are approved, and that around 100 locations are added every week.

You can already search for beautiful locations without having to create an account at all.

They'll be back soon, the bluebells. But don't all go to the well-known Hallerbos now. The pressure on nature there is so great that the bluebells are at risk of gradually disappearing. There are 5 other places in Belgium where you can find them too. Just take a look at https://www.vrt.be/vrtnws/nl/2017/04/14/5_alternatieve_plaatsenomboshyacintentespotten-1-2951398/

Seems like a wonderful app but also take a look at this developer's privacy policy.....data used to track you and the data linked to it....
and besides....discovering beautiful spots yourself is also great and not all going to the same spot, taking photos and then on to the next....

@gede, everyone should of course decide for themselves whether she/he wants to use the recommended app, but I think your warning is justified. Not all apps, and certainly many free apps, handle the user's privacy properly.

@gede, I am the developer of NoFilter.
"tracking" not always means: "I want to know who you are".
In this case, NoFilter tracks "your movements in the app", mainly to track any crash.

If the app crashes in your Phone, I need to "track you" in order to understand if you have an iPhone, or an Android, if you have a now or old phone, if you had internet connection or not, and all those configuration to properly reproduce your scenario at the moment the app crashes, in order to fix the problem.

Trust me, I don't want to know who you are, and where are you standing. I just want to provide a good user experience.
