Car spotting games turn everyday streets into a collection hunt. Instead of unlocking cars with in-game currency, you find them in the real world, photograph them, and the game identifies the make, model and color.

How car spotting works

You point your phone camera at a parked or passing car. The app sends the photo for recognition, returns the car details, and adds it to your garage. The photo is deleted after processing, so your camera roll stays clean and nothing is shared.

Why it is addictive

Every street becomes a treasure hunt. Rare cars are worth more, and your collection grows with the places you visit. Unlike a fixed in-game showroom, your garage reflects the real cars you have actually seen.

From collection to racing

PhotoRally does not stop at collecting. Once a car is in your garage, you can take it on a city route and race it against other players. That link between the real world and the race is what makes the game distinctive.

Privacy

PhotoRally uses the camera only when you open photo mode. Photos are processed and deleted, and the app collects no location, contacts or analytics and shows no ads.
