๐Ÿ‘‹ Hi Product Hunt! Iโ€™m Alessandro, indie developer and creator of WhyHere. The idea came from a simple frustration: tools like Google Lens are great at telling what something is โ€” but almost never why it exists exactly there. WhyHere is built around that question. You take a photo, and the app tries to explain what youโ€™re looking at and why itโ€™s in that specific place, using the image and its geographic context. No accounts, no tracking, no social features. Just curiosity, history, and context. Iโ€™d love to hear your thoughts: โ€“ When do you care more about why than what? โ€“ What kind of places would you try it on first? Thanks for checking it out ๐Ÿ™Œ
