KMZ Previewer

Bring your KMZ files to life on a beautiful 3D map.
KMZ Previewer turns the .kmz files you've collected from Google Earth, hiking apps, photo planners, and trail websites into a fully interactive experience on your iPhone. Pinch to zoom in on a mountain pass, tilt for a realistic 3D view, and switch between four gorgeous map styles in a single tap. Whether you're previewing your next hike, planning a photo trip, or just revisiting where you've been - KMZ Previewer keeps everything one tap away.
WHAT YOU CAN DO
- Open any KMZ file - straight from Files, iCloud, Mail, or the share sheet. Placemarks, paths, and polygons all render automatically.
- Pick your map style - Standard, Terrain, Hybrid, or Satellite. Every style supports realistic 3D elevation so mountains look like mountains.
- Search any place - find restaurants, landmarks, addresses, or trailheads. Tap a result to see the straight-line distance to the nearest point in your KMZ and to your current location.
- Drop your own pins - tap the map to drop a pin at exact GPS coordinates, or type latitude and longitude manually. Name each one, edit it later, and drag-to-reposition with a long-press.
- See it all at once - KMZ features in orange, your custom pins in green, search results in blue, and your location in the classic blue dot.
- Share your work - send the loaded KMZ via AirDrop, Messages, Mail, or save it back to Files.
- Your places persist - the last opened KMZ and every custom pin you create are saved across app launches automatically.
BUILT FOR iPHONE
KMZ Previewer is a native SwiftUI app built on Apple MapKit. It's lightweight, has no ads, no tracking, no accounts, and works fully offline once a map area has been viewed.
PERFECT FOR
- Hikers previewing routes shared by friends or downloaded from trail websites
- Photographers planning trips around saved photo spots
- Travelers reviewing custom Google Earth itineraries on the go
- Anyone who needs a quick, no-friction way to look at a .kmz on iPhone
