Short answer: apps like Been and Visited are country-counters — they show which countries you've visited and what percentage of the world that is. WHIB does that too, but it doesn't stop at a checklist: each place can hold the sights, sounds, smells, tastes and textures that made it matter. If you only want a scratch-map score, a counter is enough. If you want to remember the trips behind the number, WHIB goes further — privately.
