Before you go

How Unlocked works in Rio de Janeiro.

Where can I use Unlocked in Rio de Janeiro?

Rio's south zone and center: Corcovado, Urca, Copacabana, Ipanema, Lapa and Santa Teresa, Jardim Botânico and the Maracanã stadium district. Niterói and Petrópolis are separate destinations and are not included. The seven Landmarks are Christ the Redeemer, Sugarloaf Mountain, Copacabana Beach, Ipanema Beach, Escadaria Selarón, the Rio de Janeiro Botanical Garden and Maracanã Stadium. Each needs its own nearby location check.

When does Unlocked check my location?

A current location sample is checked when you choose Unlock at a supported Landmark. Continuous background tracking is not required.

Can I create the Memory after I leave?

Yes. A server-verified Landmark unlock is permanent. You can return to its Experiences later; venue admission and photography permissions are separate.

What does the welcome credit do?

Your first GPS-verified Landmark unlock grants one welcome credit for your first Memory. Collecting and sharing badges does not use credits.
