Seems great but I could never get any photos to show up. The spinning wheel just stays forever.

About this app

This app will show you incredible photos for any location. You can use your current location (via GPS), or search for any location in the world.

You can browse the images, save the ones you love, and even set them as your wallpaper. Don't forget to email these beauties to your family and friends.


- Ideal for those who travel often. Scout out the picturesque locations that you must visit.


- Indispensable for those who never travel. See wonderful images without the expensive travel costs.


What more needs to be said? Surely you've downloaded the app already and are perusing the enchanting locations around the globe. Did you look at Italy? I hear it's breathtaking this time of year. Good thing I don't have to fly there...


For the nerds:

Now on GitHub! https://github.com/shmuelr/PicLoco

I made this app to play with a couple new Android APIs and libraries, most notably Palette. The images come from the Panoramio API graciously provided by Google. Additionally we have some Loader action fueling the glorious RecyclerView. The mighty Picasso library lives at the core of this app pumping life to these magnificent ImageViews. I attempted to incorporate a number of Material Design elements, and I will be adding more when I get time. (I want to add 'Hero' Activity transitions to connect the RecyclerView ImageViews to the ImageViews in the child activities). Eventually I plan on uploading the project to GitHub for anyone who is interested.

tl;dr This is what happens when app developers are bored (and overtired).
