## What is CheckinPlace?

Your trips, mapped with less effort.

Grant location access and CheckinPlace detects your stops as you go, drawing the route between them on the map — no manual logging needed.

CHECK-INS
Stops are recorded as you travel. Add a photo to any of them and watch your trip turn into a real visual diary, not just a line on a map.

HOLIDAYS, NOT JUST TRIPS
Group several trips into one Holiday and see the whole journey together — a multi-day road trip, a week away, a season of weekend getaways, all in one place.

PHOTOS ON THE ROUTE
Every photo you add shows up right on the map at the spot you took it. Look back at a trip and it reads like a story, not a spreadsheet.

HOLIDAY REELS
Watch any completed trip play back stop by stop — a short, automatic video of the whole journey. Your first Reel is free; unlocking more uses Coins, purchased separately.

STAMPS & PASSPORT
Every finished trip earns a stamp in your own travel passport. It's a permanent record that sticks around even if you later delete the trip itself.

YOUR DATA STAYS YOURS
There's no account to create and no cloud sync — everything lives on your device. Nothing is shared unless you choose to share it.

Whether it's a daily commute worth remembering or a three-week holiday across a country, CheckinPlace turns it into something worth looking back on.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.4 — 2026-10-13

Reels in 3D
• Your Reel now flies over real terrain: hills and mountains rise up as the camera tilts.
• The camera follows the direction you travelled, like you're on the road again, without turning at every photo along the way.
• Flights head straight for their destination.
• At the end, the camera turns north and pulls back to show your whole route in one smooth move.
• The opening zoom into your first stop is quicker, so you get to your trip sooner.
• Prefer the classic flat view? Turn off 3D Camera in the Reel settings.

Maps remember your view
• Completed trips and Holidays now keep how you rotated and tilted the map, not just where you zoomed. Your Holiday picture follows too.

### 1.3 — 2026-10-12

• Smoother Reels: long journeys like flights now glide across the map at a comfortable pace, and every Reel ends on your whole route.
• Share a Reel again instantly — no re-recording.
• Watch or create a Reel straight from your trips list.
• A Holiday with two or more trips now gets its combined Holiday Reel free once every trip has its Reel.
• Your Holiday picture updates automatically as you frame the map, and trip maps remember your zoom.
• Fixes for Holiday pictures, Stamp names after renaming a trip, and more.

### 1.2.1 — 2026-10-08

a new paste box that works every time, no more duplicate trips when you import the same plan twice, and a clearer prompt for your AI.

### 1.2 — 2026-10-06

Widgets. See your trip on the Home Screen and Lock Screen: the next stop while you travel, or a countdown to your next trip.

Plan with your own AI. Fill in where you're going, when and for how long, copy the prompt to ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini, and paste the plan back. CheckinPlace finds every place on the map and builds your Holiday.

Share a plan. Send a Holiday or trip to a friend; it opens straight in their CheckinPlace.

Reminders. Optional reminders the evening before a trip, and a nudge if you haven't checked in for a while.

Easier editing. Change a Holiday's dates and all its trips move along. Edit a Holiday from its card, and tap a section in the Planner to edit it.

### 1.0 — 2026-10-01

No release notes.
