## What is Cast About Compass?

Paste in your confirmation. Watch your trip build itself.

Forward a cruise booking, a flight, a hotel, a rental car — from any line, any agent, any airline — and Compass reads it and lays your trip out day by day. Ports and sailing times. Check-in and check-out. Confirmation numbers, seat assignments, the lot. You don't type any of it.

Most travel apps make you a data-entry clerk before they help you. This one doesn't.


BUILT FOR THE COMPLICATED TRIPS

Fourteen ports and a flight home. A tour with three hotels and a train between them. The trip that changed twice before you left. That's what Compass is for, not a weekend away.

Every day sits in order, with what's happening and when. Where you're sleeping, how you're getting there, what you've already booked. One screen. No hunting through a folder of emails at the pier.


EVERYTHING IN YOUR POCKET, EVEN OFFLINE

Passports, visas, insurance, booking numbers — all in one place, and readable when the ship's Wi-Fi gives up on you. Which it will.


A JOURNAL YOU'LL ACTUALLY KEEP

Write a couple of lines. Add the photos you took that afternoon. It quietly turns into something worth reading years later, and you never had to set anything up.


SEND A POSTCARD FROM THE ROAD

Pick a photo from this morning, write a line under it, and it's in their inbox before dinner. No stamp, no three-week wait, no post office in a language you don't read.


BRING WHOEVER'S COMING WITH YOU

Your travelling companion sees the same trip and can add to it. Anyone else you invite can look without changing a thing. No more forwarding the same email six times.


REMEMBER THE PEOPLE, NOT JUST THE PLACES

The couple from dinner on night three. The guide who was worth every penny. Snap a photo, add a name, and they're still there next year when you're trying to remember it.


WHAT IT COSTS

Your first month is free and nothing is held back — every feature, the whole time. After that it's $9.99 a month or $79.99 a year. Cancel from Settings in two taps, whenever you like.


Cast About Compass is made by Cast About Travel, for people who take real trips.

## Version history (last 4 releases)

### 1.3 — 2026-08-18

• Polish and reliability improvements throughout — smoother photo handling, steadier syncing, and dozens of small fixes.
• A refreshed App Store gallery that shows Compass the way travelers actually use it: paste a confirmation, and your whole trip — flights, hotels, cruises, excursions, dinners — builds itself.
• As always: your day at a glance, port days with tender alerts, postcards from wherever you are, and a journal your family can follow.

### 1.2 — 2026-08-09

• Taking a photo now works everywhere in the app. The camera opens reliably every time you add a picture to a memory, a postcard, a document, or a travel companion.

• Sign in faster — Face ID and your saved password now work at the sign-in screen.

• Your journal photos now load reliably no matter how long you've had them.

### 1.1 — 2026-08-03

This version changes Cast About Compass from a paid app to a free app with an auto-renewable subscription (Compass Premium — Monthly and Annual, with a 1-month free trial). Both subscriptions are included in this submission.

Sign-in is required (demo account provided in the Sign-In fields). After signing in, open the menu → Settings → Upgrade to Premium (or tap the "Start free trial" banner) to reach the paywall. It shows the Annual and Monthly options and a "Start Free Trial" button that begins the standard StoreKit purchase.

The app loads its interface from our web service, so a network connection is required. Thank you for reviewing.
