### 2/5 — Very cumbersome to use

*2022-08-05*

Downloaded this after a friend requested it for packing list feature. I regret buying the full version. The trip planner is very cumbersome and I really don’t like using it. I think the idea was great but this wasn’t executed well.

### 3/5 — Could Be Expanded To Be Useful

*2021-12-16, version 5.11*

This is nicely packaged but not very useful in its current form as it doesn't include capacity to add transport. Really just a diary. Travel modes and links to booking would be useful and include maps rather than user uploads.

### 2/5 — Good App - Desperate for an Update

*2019-10-23, version 5.11*

I like the app itself. It worked wonderfully two phones ago. No it is in desperate need of a good update. It is t set up to conform to all screen sizes. So my printing is over large and overwrites itself. So I have lines of writing on top of other lines of writing leaving an illegible mess. I also can’t scroll properly within the app. The last update was over a year ago. Does this app still have support?

### 4/5 — Love it❣️

*2019-06-04, version 5.11*

Great app! Relatively easy to use. Great tool to plan and remind of important things when traveling overseas!

### 2/5 — Très décevant

*2019-05-05, version 5.11*

Compliqué, rigide et j’ai payé pour ça! N’achetez pas.

### 2/5 — Frustrating

*2019-01-24, version 5.11*

Hi, I just started using the app and find it very frustrating as the instructions for copying and printing are on the webpage but no menu for them on the app.  Also, I can find no link to login or save my work.  I am considering deleting the app unless I can resolve this issue.

### 2/5 — Confusing and inconsistent

*2018-08-30, version 5.11*

Great app in many respects.  But try to enter a simple plane flight and it is complex and requires multiple screens.  Each ticket entry ends up different when you can’t see what you entered for the last one.  Then, looking up the plane flights is a further multi-page juggle.  This software has excellent capacity to attach and include a broad range of information.  However, it needs to be rebuilt to support simple data entry functionality that can be quickly accessed at airports and travel agents.  Most details entered are buried so deep in the software, its hard to remember where things are stored.  The iPad version of the app has its trip icons spread across two separate pages (7 on one page and 6 on the next) when it could simply have a menu on one page.  Then, every page has so many fields on each entry page, the whole lot gets messy and confusing and I keep forgetting where my entries are saved and have to hunt for them  each time I reopen the app.  Wonder whether the code writers have built a brilliant database functionality, but failed to design the app for user access who requires quick, accurate and consistent data entry and retrieval.  I am unsure whether I would recommend this app or not, but currently minded not to.  But truly hope improvements can be made so this app reaches its fullest potential to become the travel app of choice.

### 2/5 — Tap Tap Tap

*2018-06-03*

Can do the same thing using notes.  Have to manually add everything.  No link to your contacts to import travellers.  No link to tripit or other travel app to import booked itineraries.  No link to map apps - can only add a picture you take of a map.  Should have tried the lite version before I bought this.  I does have a place to hold everything and can export as a nice book.   But I quickly tired of all the tapping.

### 4/5 — Great Travel App

*2017-05-27, version 5.5*

This is the App I have been looking for.  Looking forward to using on my next trip will make it so much better keeping records.  I am currently loading a previous trip and loving it.  Would be good it you had a feature that recorded kms travelled giving you a running total.  Plus I like to record daily temperatures not just sunny, rain etc.  Add these feature and it would be perfect.    Well that was my view for the orginal version.   This new version, I do not like it at all.  It is not user friendlt, i cannot find where the diary is, it wont let me put in an estimate for the trip only daily estimates.  Bit disappointed the new version doesn't have the expense summary break down...... would be good if you could include it again.

### 4/5 — Need the older version of the app

*2017-03-21*

I loved the older version of the app that worked until 2015. Developer should not modify the appearance and layout of existing paid customer app, instead create a new version like Triprider 2 for purchase from App Store. I would never buy this latest version, look and feel is bad. Bring old version back and make it customizable by user.

### 2/5 — Not designed for planning

*2017-01-04*

I had high hopes that this app could be used for planning, but it is not really designed for that; but you cannot build your trip incrementally, there are way too many required fields.  For example, planning a trip to another country, you may not know where ("the place") an event will occur, but the app requires "place" in order to save the entry.  

Basically, you have to know a lot about your trip before putting the details in the app, (it won't let you save and finish later).

Also, does not enable you to enter flight duration.  asks for the departure time, but cannot add the duration (or arrival time) which is pretty important if planning things like transportation or other events upon arrival.

### 4/5 — Good

*2016-12-31, version 5.5*

I have found application useful to plan itinerary, can save places of interest via PDF or photos, make notes etc.

### 4/5 — Essential Tool

*2016-11-21, version 5.5*

Having travelled around quite a bit I decided that what I could really do with away with was all the paperwork constantly needing my attention, everything from tickets, to dates, to addresses. 
I looked through many, but am glad I chose this one. I thoroughly recommend this app for any traveller, it certainly makes the finer details any traveller wishes they didn't have to worry about much simpler and easier.
My only complaint/suggestion is the the 'must do' events should have a notification on them, or at least the option of making one to remind me of bookings or confirmations I have to do that day instead of my constantly looking up when I have to take care of them.
-Overall, really handy. I will be using it on every trip from now on.

### 3/5 — You cannot download your itinerary

*2016-06-22, version 5.3*

I wanted to download my trip in Pdf so I can share with my family but I can't, not so good 👎🏻

### 5/5 — Trip rider

*2016-03-26, version 5.2*

It's one of the best apps ,if you travel ,we love it  not only has it a great log book ,you can also keep an eye on your budget as well as many other features

### 3/5 — Helpful

*2016-03-25, version 5.2*

Helpful app with many features but expenses should be able to be shared and edited by other travelers. This is what I was mainly looking for in a trip app.

### 4/5 — Good app

*2016-03-18, version 5.2*

Easy to use.  Good trip planner.  Nice interface

### 1/5 — Great until it lost all ten of my trips, no support

*2018-09-05, version 5.11*

I had been using this ap for years, but since the update, all May data,photos, diary, expenses, everything has gone. It is like I just loaded the new ap again.  I contacted support several times but nothing. 
Disgusting for a paid ap to have no support, no back up.  I have lost everything.

### 1/5 — This WAS a great App!

*2017-07-27, version 5.9*

Version 3.0 of this app was absolutely superb, once you got your head around it. Plus there where lots of YouTube vids to help walk you thru setting it up, which was certainly a massive help too. 
Now they completely change everything you've learned & give you some crappy FAQ's in the help section of their web page, WFT!! At least give us a User Manual PDF?
If you, the app developer, can't be bothered anymore just take the app out the AppStore? Instead of probably work hard on something only YOU know how to use!!!
Some proper instructions, NOT a flipping FAQ, would be nice.

### 1/5 — Just horrible!!!!

*2016-05-23, version 5.3*

Bloatware. Try to add a flight: you have to first pick the day of your trip, then enter information about the accommodation then scroll down to where you can enter activities for the day, then select airplane and then enter your information.
Can you make this anymore difficult and cumbersome?

### 1/5 — Much prefer the old app.

*2016-02-24, version 5.2*

Prefer the old version really!

### 1/5 — Gofododdo

*2016-01-28*

This app had a great "feel" two years ago when I first used it for a complicated international trip.  You found everything so easily and it felt like a quality app -- not something generated by a 16 year old.  Recently they "updated" it and it has a completely different look -- a basic one without the easy to use layout, with all these silly motion features just to get some basic info.  The look has also regressed; no more hip and sophisticated layout and images; you now have something that seems to be the product of a 16 year old with an underdeveloped aesthetic sensibility.  BRING THE OLD LAYOUT BACK!  BRING THE OLD FEEL BACK!

### 1/5 — Overpriced

*2016-01-23, version 5.1*

Waste of money as you can't even share the trip with other travellers - which would encourage more app users anyway.
Basically a glorified personal note system intent on knowing which country you mean at every turn (seriously, twice per event?!)

### 1/5 — Old version looked so much better.

*2016-01-01, version 5.0*

Still works well, but it's a shame it doesn't have the individuality and artistry of the previous version. Just looks similar to every other trip app out there now - generic, very disappointed because that 'look' was why I chose this app above the others in the first place.

### 1/5 — Not an improvement!

*2015-12-11, version 5.0*

I hate this version. It is bland and has no character. The previous version was a visual treat and easy to use. Plus, the upgrade got rid of my pics....Really! I will be looking for something else.

### 1/5 — Ugh

*2015-11-21, version 5.0*

Nice promises but crash crash crash.  3 strikes and you're out.

### 1/5 — Hate the new version!

*2015-11-06, version 5.0*

Loved the last interface - absolutely hate the new graphics - looking for a replacement!

### 5/5 — Cruises

*2023-03-28, version 5.11*

I have been using Trip Plan on all our cruises For several years 
keep all records from start to finish 
What the cruise was like .meals on ship .weather.
I look back at information I have put down 
All information is kept on my IPad and transferred from old IPad 
To new ones 
I would be lost if I did not keep 
Will use on next trip on ship when we go in July this year 

All the best Tony Pearce

### 5/5 — Love this little gem

*2023-01-27, version 5.11*

This ap is so easy to use and presents beautifully as a 'book' at the end of your travels. Would just love if I could sync across devices so I could pick up and keep writing on any of them.
My children use the journalling and phhotos and love keeping these records. Thank you!

### 5/5 — Simply best travel app

*2021-05-18, version 5.11*

Used for a few long trips  over past 4 years great for planning  trip,  packing, monitoring expenses, and capturing recording moments with diary and camera. Ticks all boxes.

### 5/5 — From Start to Finish App Covers it all

*2019-07-07, version 5.11*

Love this App. Have been using for over 7 years. This app allows me to plan trips, jot notes, upload tickets, and save maps to prepare. Then while I’m on my trip I can keep a simple diary. I have everything from tickets, itinerary, maps, contacts and important docs all in one place. I can share the plans with travel partners and export my trip diary! I can even copy my packing list from the previous trip (be it the big pack or the overnight). This App captures all my precious memories. Thanks.

### 5/5 — Fantastic Travel App

*2018-08-27, version 5.11*

I have been using this app for a few years on some really big overseas trips. It is so convenient and easy to use. All my travel plans are easy to access as I go and I write a diary entry each night. When the trip is over I do a tripbook and I’ve got a permanent record. This is my favourite app. Thankyou.

### 5/5 — The perfect app for travelers

*2018-04-20*

This is the app I have been searching for. It is the most complete app for travelers I have ever found. Planning, tracking expenses and keeping a travel diary, it’s all here.

### 5/5 — Génial

*2017-10-19, version 5.9*

Enfin une application voyage assez complète!!

### 5/5 — Travel planing and itinerary

*2017-10-16, version 5.9*

Excellent app for travel plan and itinerary planning . I searched many to find one that could plan ahead and prepare an itinerary in a journal without an internet blog and only this one met my requirements. Well thought out and easy to navigate app .

### 5/5 — Euro trip

*2017-01-18, version 5.5*

Had three months and twenty days in Europe, and it helped with the pre-planing of the trip and also when there, by working out the budget and easily being able to move my times around. Would recommend for any traveller

### 5/5 — Helpful tool

*2016-08-18, version 5.5*

I don't travel a lot, but I have used this app for long trips, such as the two month visit to Australia, and an upcoming trip to Newfoundland. It is great in the planning stage for keeping reminders of what needs to be done, and it's also a terrific way to do a day to day diary, including expenses, when on the trip. Finally, it provides an excellent means of keeping the memories alive after the trip.
