01

Add a trip

Tap + New trip and add where and when, plus a note if you like. Then select who can see it: All friends, A group or Only me. Nothing is shared until you choose.

New trip: where, when, and who can see it.

02

See when paths cross

Home shows when you and a friend will be in the same city, nearby or in the same country on the same days, including on trips you’ve joined; tap through to see them all. Open one to message them.

Overlaps: how close each match is, and the days you share.

03

Friends’ trips

Add people on the Friends tab. Friends’ trips shows where they’re headed, including trips they’ve joined that are shared with All friends: those reach the friends of everyone on the trip.

Friends’ trips: where your friends are headed, month by month.

04

Plan the trip

Open a trip to add places, put them on days in the itinerary, and keep your bookings together. Plan with AI can plan the whole trip, arrange your places into days, suggest more places or rework your plan. It and Find bookings with AI work with the AI you already use.

A day on the itinerary: places in order, with the flight and the hotel.

05

Journeys

A journey is a trip with several stops, like Bangkok, then Chiang Mai, then Krabi. Each stop keeps its own dates and overlaps; the journey shows the route and every stop on one map.

A journey: the route, stop by stop, on one map.

06

Guides

A guide is your places for a city, with a note on each and no dates. Share its link, Save a copy of a friend’s, or tap Plan a trip from this guide.

A guide’s link: its places on a map, for anyone to open.

07

Share

A trip’s link shows where and when to anyone who has it, never your places. It opens even for a private trip, and the app warns you first. Share plans makes a story card for Instagram.

Share plans: choose which trips to include, then share a story card or a link.

08

Report and block

Use Report… on a friend, a comment, or someone else’s trip or guide. Block ends the friendship: they can’t see your trips and you won’t see theirs. A link they already have works until you reset it.

A friend’s ⋮ menu on the Friends tab: Report…, Remove friend, Block.
