Family photos at landmarks, without the group-pose negotiation.
Getting everyone looking at the same camera in front of a landmark is its own family project. Unlocked takes the visit instead: a quick location check on arrival, then the Memory—everyone in it—gets made later, when the kids are asleep or the trip is over.

Quick answer
How do you get family photos at landmarks without the posing?
Complete a quick location unlock when your family arrives at a supported Landmark, enjoy the visit, and later generate a private Memory from a reference photo that includes everyone. The app verifies the visit; the portrait happens on your schedule.
The loop
Presence first. Creation later.
01
Check in on arrival.
Choose Unlock when you reach the supported Landmark. One location sample confirms the visit in seconds—while the kids are still interested in the place, not the phone.
02
Let the visit be the visit.
No gathering everyone for a retake every time someone blinks. The landmark is verified; your attention goes back to the people you brought with you.
03
Make the Memory afterwards.
That evening or after you are home, choose an Experience, add a family reference photo, and generate the Memory. It lands in your private collection, ready to share when you want to.
Montreal packs a basilica, a mountain lookout, and an old port into one manageable city—short gaps between landmarks matter when nap time is a stakeholder.
Trams, tiles, and a castle with walls to walk. Lisbon’s landmarks sit close together, so a family can collect two visits and still be home before the meltdown hour.
A fortress on the water—short visit, long shadow on the imagination.
Field notes
Before you go.
Unlock first; pose never (on site).
The only thing Unlocked needs from the landmark is one current location sample. Do it as you arrive and the rest of the visit belongs to the family.
Reference photos are easier at breakfast.
The Memory is generated from a reference photo you provide later. A cheerful breakfast-table shot often beats anything negotiated in front of a monument at hour six.
Stamps now, Memories later.
Landmark stamps collect on your Passport for free, so kids can watch the collection grow during the trip. Deciding which visit becomes a generated Memory can wait for a quiet evening.
Yes. The unlock, the Experience choice, and Memory creation all happen from one account. Nothing requires every family member to have the app.
Does Unlocked track our children’s location?
No. There is a single current location sample when you choose Unlock at a supported Landmark, and no background or continuous tracking. Reference photos and Memories stay private.
Is a landmark stamp free?
Yes. Verified landmark visits and the Passport they collect on are free. Your first GPS-verified unlock also grants a welcome credit toward a first generated Memory; further Memories use credits.
Do we need tickets or special access?
Unlocked verifies presence at a landmark; venue admission, tickets, and photography rules are always arranged separately with the venue.
What if the best moment happened somewhere else in the city?
Only supported Landmarks can be unlocked, and only from inside their supported areas. The rest of the day belongs to your own camera—we think that division is healthy.
Unlocked is free to collect: verify a landmark visit, keep the stamp, and share the Passport. Generated Memories are optional, private, and never required.
