However two days into my planning, I hit a pay wall. Strike one. Next the flight information was inaccurate after I input flight number. If you add confirmation it did grab my return flight perfect. Not the biggest problem. It took hours to lock in address for events, because it only search exact addresses vs, being able to search buildings and businesses. I did finally complete the itinerary to send to my travel princess, as well as my own android so I could trouble shoot connecting for her. Strike 2, it’s apple only, preferably iPad. I didn’t count it out though, as I already agreed to annual fee and did the work. I just sent it to her iPad. She woke up the morning, and asked why I sent her an image. The iPad app, doesn’t get past loading screen on iPad. Also, who carry’s an iPad around on leisure trips? Safe to say that was the final strike. I asked for a refund. I now have a few hours before my trip to redo everything in an app that works. **Developer response:** Thank you for taking the time to share your experience - I truly appreciate hearing your perspective. As a solo developer, I’m passionate about creating a tool that helps make trip planning seamless and ensures all the effort you put into planning is worth it. I’m currently working on an update that will be released in the next few days, allowing you to search for buildings and points of interest instead of needing exact addresses—this should make event planning much smoother. I’ve also optimized the app for iPhone to make it more convenient during leisure trips, so you can easily access your itinerary on the go. Regarding the loading issue on the iPad app, I’d love to look into the specifics and resolve it directly for you. If you could email me at admin@brightwoodapps.com, I’d be happy to investigate further and ensure the app works perfectly for your needs so you don't need to re-do anything. I appreciate you & I’m excited to continue improving the app for travelers like you. I’d love to hear from you and make this right for you. ### 4/5 — Great potential *2025-01-16* Great first impression, though admittedly I was looking more specifically to be able to manually set up the schedule day-to-day with a little more ease (1-week holiday). I used the AI and was really impressed with how many touristy, lodging and dining suggestions we provided, though I wish there was a way I couldn’t accidentally swipe out of the results, or a way to ‘quick add’ to specific days, to be reorganized by time. A little new to all these, I see the app might be quite new but it already seems like it has the potential to be very lean and easy to use. The tour-guide feature with AI is very intriguing and while I might wait to use it for a couple update, I would take a look and see if this style is something for you. ### 5/5 — Amazing for trip planning *2025-05-29* I used this app to plan a nice little vacation with my family and it helped tremendously. Everything went smooth and overall was really fun. ### 5/5 — Best app for family trips *2025-05-28* so convenient and an amazing app well made ### 5/5 — AMAZING *2025-05-28* Wonderful app-makes trip planning so easy. Customizes itself based on what your focused needs are to help you perfect your trip! ### 5/5 — Use *2024-12-28* It is very easy to use. I organized my whole trip in few minutes. I loved the feature to create automatic itinerary of your interest. ### 5/5 — Game-changing trip planner!! *2024-12-27* My husband and I love traveling with friends & family but planning our trips on excel sheets was a mess. I also didn’t like having to open up excel on vacation. Trip planner has made vacation planning so easy for me! I love that I can get AI inspo & make my packing list on it. The aesthetics & organization of it makes me excited and want to use it on vacation. I also love that I can collaborate with friends easily to plan our trips. ### 5/5 — Quick, easy & epic itineraries *2024-12-27* I’ve always planned my trips on Excel, Google Sheets and Docs which was a PAIN and confusing for anyone else to follow lol. This app makes it possible to put everything in one place. My favorite part is the AI which helps me brainstorm ideas I frankly hadn’t even thought of. Looking forward to planning more vacations soon! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
