Good, but needs more functionality

I had high hopes and like the look and feel, but there is no search option for adding sights, etc. I’m planning a few days in London and can add the ‘recommended’ sights, but it won’t let me search for things I know I want to see. I spent 10 minutes trying to find a way to add St Paul’s Cathedral to my itinerary, but gave up. Hopefully this will come in time.

Loving the new update

I’ve been really enjoying the new Lonely Planet app. It makes finding reliable recommendations super easy. I love that I don’t have to wait through endless search results. The guides are really well curated practical and genuinely useful when planning for a trip or exploring some more new.

Response from developer

Thank you for the 5 stars! We’re thrilled our new app is improving your travels. Our local writers work hard to make sure recommendations feel authentic and worth your time. We’re continuing to add new features and destinations regularly and are grateful you've joined us on this journey.

THANK YOU

THANK YOU LONELY PLANET FOR CREATING THIS APP!! I’ve loved Lonely Planet guide books for years, and can always trust that I will get amazing recommendations. However, it would be a huge investment to get physical copies of all books related to your destination (i.e. Japan). This app is the perfect solution, and I am so excited that I’ll get to have all guides with me during my travels. I would 100% pay a monthly membership fee to have access to all of Lonely Planet’s content.

As a side note, the app design is beautiful. Colors, typography, photography, all perfect!

Too hard to add an itinerary

Just not worth the effort, poorly designed and not intuitive.

Thanks for sharing your honest thoughts with us. This early feedback helps us shape the future of this app and improve your experience. Stay tuned as we expand functionality, make improvements and roll out updates.

Disappointing

Nothing here that you can’t find online for free. Bring back the original format guides with strategic and logistic info about transport options and costs.
