Horrible Access

Tried to register but app page to enter code expired before I could retrieve it from junk. Every login required the gad awful captcha - who thinks of this. Any phone with biometrics should not require 2FA /captcha!

Excited to see this app develop

Been a big fan of the paper guides for years, this app is a little rough around the edges but excited to see it get better over time.

Lonely Planet on your phone!

I’ve traveled with Lonely Planet guidebooks for over 20 years and see tons of potential in the new app. It proved indispensable recently in Taos — got to the Pueblo early for the day’s first tour! I like how it’s the same on-the-ground, expert advice as the books but with a dose of tech like AI chat and geolocation. Plus, I look forward to all the hours of armchair traveling, learning about the world instead of doomscrolling.
