What is Archiving a Pin?

The Archive Pin feature allows you to hide pins that you no longer need to see on your main map or list—without permanently deleting them. Whether it’s a completed job, a past event, or a location you no longer visit regularly, archiving helps you declutter while still keeping your data safe and accessible.

Think of it like boxing up old files: out of sight, but not out of reach.

How It Works

Archiving a Pin
- From any pin, tap the more actions menu (+) and choose Archive.
- The pin will disappear from your main map and pin list.
- Archived pins receive a grey indicator strip at the top of their pin card, making their status easy to identify.
- Archived pins can't be added to or edited while archived.
Accessing Archived Pins
- Archived pins are grouped under the Archived tag.
- You won’t be able to search or filter for archived pins using general search or filters.
- To view them, go to your Tags view and select the Archived tag.
- This tag is only available on paid plans.
Unarchiving a Pin
- Simply open the archived pin and select Unarchive from the pin options menu to restore it to your main map and list.
- Once unarchived you will be able to add to or edit the pin.
- You will also be able to archive this pin again if you want.

Who Can Use This Feature?

The Archive Pin feature is available exclusively to users on paid plans. If you’re using a free version of Pin Drop, you won’t see the Archived tag or be able to archive pins.

Why Archive Instead of Delete?

Archiving keeps your historical data intact while helping you focus on what’s current. It’s perfect for:

Completed projects or sales routes
Past meeting locations
Temporary or seasonal destinations
Old job sites or delivery stops
