Needs major improvements
As someone who works in the travel industry, I really wanted to love this app. I was specifically looking for an alternative to Wanderlog, but after spending time with Stippl, I still think Wanderlog is the superior product.
The biggest issue is usability. This is honestly one of the most difficult travel apps I’ve ever tried to use. Simple tasks—like importing flights, adding them manually, or organizing an itinerary—are far more complicated than they should be. Flights with overnight or long layovers don’t import correctly, manually entered dates frequently save on the wrong day, and moving items into your itinerary often just doesn’t work. Uploading travel confirmations is also slow and unreliable.
On top of that, the app crashes frequently, making an already frustrating experience even harder to use. I found myself spending more time trying to figure out the app than actually planning my trip.
That said, I genuinely think this app has a ton of potential. The calendar view is absolutely fantastic and, in my opinion, the best feature of the app. It’s clean, easy to read, and exactly how I want to visualize my travel plans. If the developers can improve the stability and simplify the workflow for basic travel planning, I think this could become an excellent app. Right now, though, it’s just too frustrating to recommend.

Very good
Rly handy for travelling, could do with a night bus/train option to cover one of the nights so you can separate when your officially going to be in each country
I tried
I will admit I didn’t give this app much of a chance because it was immediately slow and glitchy when adding things. Not super user friendly at first glance.
Buggy and inaccurate
Wow. So wish I would not have paid for the pro version. Started in free earlier in the day and looked really promising but needed pro to do all that I needed. Now that I am in, it is double booking expenses, freezes up, won’t let you change dates, etc. Going straight into the trash.
Needs offline feature
Would be good to be able to save information offline so some parts of the app can be accessed without internet
Disappointed
Up until the recent update I loved this app. So much so that I just forked out for paid version. However since the update it is slower and near impossible to edit the day by day section. It saves whilst I’m typing and as a result changes the text. Incredibly frustrating! Please fix it back to what it was.

Not worth it
Waste of money.The App is not at all user friendly. We need to send the booking details many times before it gets registered.
Don’t buy premium
Paid for the premium version to use to the forwarding feature. Doesn’t work reached out to support and they ended up leaving me on delivered after sending them the information they wanted. There are way better apps out there for free.
Too many glitches
I upgraded to pro and I’m really disappointed. Firstly the mobile app and desktop version were not syncing, so I had to contact support. Then my documents weren’t reaching the app. I thought the pro feature would pull information from my documents and add to itinerary, but it doesn’t, so you still have to manually add. It doesn’t add overnight flights correctly! When adding a flight leaving on day 1 at 11am, but arrives on day 2 at 7:40 it pulls the day 2 date in as the departure day and makes this a travel day! I can’t manually amend the date either! It’s very frustrating. I also don’t like all the advertising with booking.com, get your guide and viator. So many things I don’t like and disappointed I’ve wasted my money.

One of the worst travel apps I’ve ever tried
This app gives great promise but it feels like just a booking platform by stealth, they gotta make their money but I would not call it an itinerary and budget app.
Naja
Im erstem Moment war ich begeistert und wollte dann die Pro-Version kostenlos (Stand auf dem Button) testen. Abgebucht wurde dann aber direkt der Monatspreis (diesen hätte ich im Nachgang gerne gehabt).
Das hätte ich ja in Kauf genommen, wenn mich der Rest dann weiterhin begeistert hätte.
Aber der Upload von Dokumenten per Mail funktioniert kaum bis gar nicht (leere PDF oder nur ein Link ohne Funktion) auch eine Fährfahrt konnte ich nicht vernünftig hinzufügen…
Vielleicht liegt der Fehler ja auch bei mir - allerdings komme ich normalerweise relativ gut mit sowas klar.
Fazit: Abo gekündigt, Lehrgeld bezahlt.

Response from developer
Das tut uns leid. Stippl Pro ist ein kostenpflichtiges Abo, das vor dem Abschluss explizit bestätigt werden muss, daher war die Abbuchung korrekt. Die Probleme mit dem E-Mail-Upload und der Fährfahrt sollten aber so nicht passieren. Meld dich gerne bei support@stippl.io, wir helfen dir da gerne weiter.
Lent
Trop de lenteur
Response from developer
Désolé pour les lenteurs. Nous avons récemment apporté des améliorations de performance. Pourrais-tu mettre l'app à jour et voir si ça s'améliore ? Si le problème persiste, écris-nous à support@stippl.io et on regardera ça de plus près.
Overall good
I love using this app I just wish I understood how to plan day-by-day better for the app.
App has so much more potential
This app works great but there’s one bug. In the plan view, the list of items drops down past the bottom
Of the page and is not available to be piled back up. Only way to get it back is to restart the app

Planned Grad Trip + Amazing Customer Support
We usedStippl to plan and organize everything, including expenses and settle balances, for our whole grad trip of five guys over the course of 20 days. It was extremely user intuitive and really helped us keep everything in one centralized place and we referenced it a million times during the trip. Plus it was easy to settle balances and account for things. Very customizable. I would definitely recommend. Plus whenever we need to reach out to customer support, they're super responsive

Good app
Amzing app that helps you plan and budget for your trip that has so many good features to it
I love this app, but it is abit glitchy
I have used Stippl for the last 7months to plan my trip and now to journal and track locations etc throughout, this app has soo much potential it is great but there a few glitches that need fixing.
1. The notifications from the app don’t track with your current location so when I’ve stayed longer in places compared to originally planned but the notifications don’t accept that so you get pinged saying to update on what “Singapore” is like but you haven’t been yet.
2. This one is actually the most frustrating is when your trying to upload a journal it does take forever to actually upload and sync to be able to post, I’m not sure why as it should work the same as posting on any other app which is instant but I often have to wait for 30 mins for anything to upload.

Great app overall
Overall this app is incredible, best planning app I’ve found. There are certainly areas that need work (like the travel times are sometimes inaccurate, the pricing system can sometimes be a bit tricky, and it certainly struggles with larger trips. Very happy with the app and price but look forward to future improvements

Alternative better options
Downloaded and instantly unimpressed that you have to pay monthly fee to allow email ticketing for flights and hotels. TripIt does it all. Can’t edit plans like dates and forced to use various OTA sites… time wasting when an easier option available and free. So disappointed
Best app for planning
Very user friendly easy to change and move things best app I’ve ever used to organise travel
