Customized images can be used to improve navigation of a user to a particular destination. For example, a mobile device can receive a first destination location of the first user. Additionally, the mobile device can receive one or more media files of the first destination location, wherein at least one of the media files is created with a recording device. Furthermore, the mobile device can further receive an indicator associating the one or more media files with the first destination location. Subsequently, the mobile device can receive a current location of the mobile device of the first user. Finally, the mobile device can display the one or more media files when the current location is within a specified distance of the first destination location.
