ClearedMap

Overview

ClearedMap is an unofficial, fan-made platform of interactive maps and progress tools for open-world games. It suits players who want free checklists and map annotations, especially without an account. Its main trade-off is that community-contributed markers are still a work in progress.

Maps pair location markers with checklists, notes and drawings. The free checklist supports unlimited markers and stores progress in the browser, making it practical for tracking on one device without signing up. Sign in to back up and sync progress across devices or share a link to it. Coverage is focused: ClearedMap says hubs open when a game has a real map to survey and its publisher allows fan content.

Marker locations are surveyed by the community and published with screenshot proof; the project says it does not use datamined material. That is a clear content policy, but it does not guarantee complete or error-free coverage. Players who need authoritative maps should be prepared for gaps and report mistakes.

Key features

Checklists and map annotations

Unlimited checklist markers and free notes and drawings let players track discoveries and add personal context without paying. Browser storage keeps this simple, but progress remains tied to that browser until the user signs in for backup and sync.

Sync, sharing and route planning

Signed-in users can sync progress across devices and share a progress link. Pro adds custom marker collections and a route planner that orders markers still needed, a useful combination for players organizing longer completion runs. A founding badge is also included. Ad-free pages for signed-in users and a vote on the next game hub are being built, so they should not be treated as current benefits.

Content and privacy approach

ClearedMap says its team creates map backdrops and screenshots from its own gameplay rather than extracting or redistributing game-file assets. For games that have not shipped, it says it uses officially published material and has an administrator review each item before publication. The site says an account is not required and personal data is not collected; checklist progress is saved in browser local storage. Privacy-friendly, cookieless analytics load only after consent. Stripe handles checkout, cards and invoices; card details go directly to Stripe, while ClearedMap stores plan status.

Pricing

The free plan costs nothing, billed Free forever. It includes every map and marker, an unlimited checklist, notes and drawings, with no account required. It is the best fit for solo players who can keep progress in one browser and do not need Pro tools.

ClearedMap Pro — Monthly costs $2.99 a month, billed $2.99 per month. It includes the founding badge, custom collections and route planner, with planned ad-free browsing and a vote on the next hub. Choose it if syncing and sharing are enough on the free tier but you want to organize markers into collections or plan routes. No free trial is offered.

ClearedMap Pro — Founding costs $19.99, paid once, billed $19.99 one payment. It includes Pro features now and everything added later, and remains valid for as long as the site exists. It is a one-payment option for committed users who prefer not to pay monthly; its value depends on continued site operation. The monthly plan is the lower-commitment choice.

Platforms

ClearedMap is web-based. Its web access works across devices with a browser, while progress syncing requires signing in. No separate mobile app is included in its platform offering.

Who it's for

ClearedMap is a strong fit for open-world players who want free, unlimited progress checklists, map annotations and an account-free start. It is less suitable for players who require verified, complete marker coverage, or who want progress synced without signing in. With three games covered, the first question for any prospective user is whether their game has a hub.

Pros and cons

• Pros: Unlimited checklist markers, notes and drawings are free, and an account is not required to begin.
• Pros: Sign-in adds backup, cross-device sync and progress sharing; Pro route planning can order remaining markers.
• Pros: The project describes a clear policy against datamined material and says it uses its own gameplay assets and screenshots.
• Cons: Marker data remains a work in progress, so accuracy and completeness may not suit players who need a definitive guide.
• Cons: Free progress is stored in the browser; cross-device backup and sharing require signing in.
• Cons: Coverage is limited to three games, and planned Pro additions are not yet current features.

Alternatives

For mobile access alongside web, LootAtlas is free and supports Android, iOS and web. OGM suits players who want offline maps on Android, iOS or macOS; its free plan is ad-supported, while Monthly Premium removes ads for $1.99 a month. Gamer Guides Interactive Maps may suit players who want guides and discussion alongside maps, but its free plan caps maps at 50 markers per map.

TH.GL is worth considering for live tracking on web, Windows or as an extension; cloud-synced filters and marker comments require sign-in, and its free plan includes interactive maps and filters. The Forest Map Companion is a more focused option for The Forest, with free interactive maps and guides and paid full-access plans. GameMaps keeps browser maps free and also offers a Windows app through Overwolf with paid subscriptions.

IMapp is another free web option with no paywall or mandatory registration; it also accepts a voluntary 5.00 USD one-time supporter donation. Tarkov Navigator is a web alternative for players focused on Tarkov maps and quests.

Verdict

Choose ClearedMap if you want free, unlimited map checklists and annotations, and can accept browser-only progress unless you sign in. Pro is worthwhile for players who need custom collections and route planning, while the founding payment suits committed users seeking one-time access to current and future Pro features. Look elsewhere if your game is not covered or you need marker data you can rely on as complete and authoritative.
