Just take your photos and then add text describing each photo. You can type or use your smartphone's voice-to-text capability to add the descriptions. Next, select a basemap such as World Topographic, Light Gay Canvas, Imagery, or Streets. With Snap2Map, you can save and edit your collected content on your smartphone.\r\n\r\nMake sure the Snap2Map app is allowed to capture coordinates when you take your photos. This enables the software to automatically place the photo on the map. On the iPhone, this is controlled by enabling Settings &gt; Location Services and the Settings &gt; Privacy &gt; Location Services &gt; Snap2Map slider.\r\n\r\nOnce uploaded, use the Story Map Tour Builder app to make further edits with your personal computer in ArcGIS Online. Take advantage of the integrated ArcGIS platform and use the tool best suited for your preferred workflow.\r\n\r\nFrom start to finish, Snap2Map requires no coding and enables you to use your smartphone to create a complete Story Map Tour app."},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":168302,"image_position":"left-center","orientation":"horizontal","hyperlink":""},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":168312,"image_position":"left-center","orientation":"horizontal","hyperlink":""},{"acf_fc_layout":"content","content":"With both Snap2Map and Map Tour Builder you can adjust locations by manually placing photos on the map.\r\n\r\nThe Snap2Map app creates an ArcGIS Online folder called Snap2Map, where it places the Story Map Tour web map and application.
