### 2/5 — Limited to their lists

*2026-08-26, version 2.218*

I tried it, but couldn’t find any way to add points of interest, hotels, restaurants that I’ve already identified other than by scrolling through long lists in hope Wanderlog includes them … and often they’re not there. There’s not even a text search available to make it easier to determine that Wanderlog does not include something you want to add. You can’t even re-sort these lists by name to jump to a letter to see if the desired place is on the pre-limited list. Extremely disappointing!

### 4/5 — What's not to love?

*2026-08-26, version 2.218*

I really love this app. It is an amazing took to maximise the time you have, especially on those city breaks. I love you can link in travel, accommodation and budgets. Possibly the best thing for me is knowing how long it will take to get from A to B and I love how you get information regarding the average visit time in places of interest. The only reason it isn't 5 stars is I think the subscription price is a little high - I love it can juggle the plan for maximum efficiency but you can also do that by just looking at the map and doing that yourself. Having said that, I am always recommending this app to people. I genuinely plan every city breaks with it.

### 3/5 — too complicated for normal day trips

*2026-08-23, version 2.218*

if you’re downloading this for just a small cute fun day trip in your state it’s overkill, doesn’t match what I was personally looking for

### 5/5 — Überragende App zur Planung

*2026-08-22*

Vielen Dank an die Entwickler!!! Wirklich eine tolle App!

### 5/5 — Great App! Making Me a Planner

*2026-08-22, version 2.218*

So far, Wanderlog has been a fantastic help in planning my trip to Scotland. The AI feature makes it super easy to tailor the trip to exactly what you want the focus to be. Since I'm doing a driving trip around Scotland, it's been especially helpful for suggesting places to stay, eat, and stop for petrol along the way. It also recommends places to visit based on your interests, which has been incredibly useful.

The free version is fantastic, but I liked it so much that I ended up subscribing—and I'm really glad I did. Being able to use the AI to continually adjust my plans as I research and discover new interests has been a game changer.

I also love that it connects you to websites where you can book activities and find additional information from other travelers about attractions and itineraries. It gives you more resources to research and build a better trip.

I'm not normally much of a planner, but this app is turning me into one because it's actually so much fun!

### 5/5 — Best travel App

*2026-08-21, version 2.218*

A wonderful resource. Makes planning and running your trip so easy. Was so good for our group to manage expenses and see local attractions and how to group our activities. Highly recommend.

### 5/5 — Essential for all trips!

*2026-08-21, version 2.218*

Love everything about this app and it’s quickly becoming an essential for all of my trips. I love the ability to import reservations and confirmations, map potential sights and assign to specific days of an itinerary, and track/split expenses. I especially appreciate how many features are available in the free version. I’d recommend to everyone!

### 5/5 — Very helpful app

*2026-08-21, version 2.218*

I’ve been using Wanderlog for several years now and it’s been so helpful to compile all your travel details plus I love the recommendations it gives. Highly
Recommend!

### 5/5 — Use Wanderlog all the time

*2026-08-21, version 2.218*

A great app at a great price.

### 5/5 — Great way to plan a trip

*2026-08-21, version 2.218*

Love how it makes planning so easy and collaborating with my fellow travellers easy too

### 5/5 — Very Useful Trip Planning App

*2026-08-20, version 2.218*

Been using Wanderlog for a while now and most recently to plan a 2 week trip which had a lot of moving parts to it. Really enjoyed this app and will absolutely use it again. It’s great that you can add attachments to things to save your tickets and reservations all in one place, saving you time. So many good aspects to this app but it is our go to place on our trip and is super helpful. Every night we would review what we were doing the next day, and day of we were able to pull up tickets and reservations easily.

### 5/5 — I never planned until Wanderlog

*2026-08-20, version 2.218*

Love it! Very useful. Love the map as I am planning and seeing the commute times between things to do. Suggestions also rock and it will auto load detailed like opening and closing times, website links. I prefer using a computer on the website over the app but the app is very very capable and doesn’t ever bug.

### 5/5 — Great service

*2026-08-19, version 2.217*

I accidentally deleted my whole trip. One fast message to customer service and they had it up again within hours ! With that type of service I bought the  annual membership! Thank you !

### 5/5 — My go to travel app

*2026-08-18, version 2.217*

Absolutely love this app!!

### 5/5 — Love this app

*2026-08-18, version 2.217*

I have used this app for multiple trips and find it so helpful! Love that I can quickly get directions between two points when moving through our schedule.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Scam

*2026-08-23, version 2.218*

This use to be a great app. However I have paid for the upgraded version twice now and the app continues to ask me to start a “free 7 day trial and then proceeds to charge me day 7 but still won’t let me use the features. When I try the get help from app support it tells me I need to download the app….I literally have the app and have downloaded, deleted, and downloaded.

Update I unowned tried to contact support 5x’s with no response

### 1/5 — Pretty but not functional

*2026-08-21, version 2.218*

This is the worst travel app I’ve used. You might think this is a good app if you’ve never looked at any other app. 

The email itinerary function didn’t ever create itineraries for me or reject me or even say that anything went wrong. It just never showed up in the trip.

Also, the wizard is annoying. When you start a new trip it asks you all kinds of questions that you’re not ready to answer yet. 

Even their helpdesk function is terrible because you will look up a question and it will have like one sentence worth of description there no pictures no videos nothing

### 1/5 — Privacy invasion

*2026-08-19, version 2.217*

Requires a login so it is of no use

### 1/5 — BEWARE - seems to be a scam

*2026-08-19, version 2.217*

I have communicated several times that I have paid my 39.99 for the full app and have sent them a picture of my receipt in Apple and they still will not recognize it.  I would not suggest this - seems to be a scam. Better to go with trip it.

### 1/5 — Broken app

*2026-08-18, version 2.217*

New update made app useless. Nothing loads and stuck on the opening screen. I have tried using WiFi and just regular cell service. I have a trip coming up in a few days and have no way to track it easily now.

### 1/5 — Used to be good, not so anymore

*2026-08-18, version 2.217*

Used to love this app but now has fallen off. I even paid for the year, but it’s asking me to subscribe again with no option to restore the subscription. Customer support is also very difficult to contact.

### 1/5 — 使いずらい

*2026-08-17*

とにかく操作性、視認性が悪い。
今までの中で最悪かもしれない。
旅行計画アプリなんだからスケジュールが一目でわかるように設計をして欲しい。
有料なんてとんでもない。

**Developer response:** こんにちは、なもなこさん！共同創設者のピーターです。Wanderlogで問題が発生したとのこと、申し訳ありません。アプリで何をしようとしていたのか、何を得ようとしていたのか教えていただけますか？もしよろしければ、peterxu@wanderlog.comまでメールをいただければ、エンジニアとしてお手伝いさせていただきます。

### 1/5 — SCAM

*2026-08-16, version 2.217*

I signed up for the free trial and it immediately charged me. I figured since I paid for it already, I might as well use it for the year but the purchase never registered and it continues to ask me to “start for free” I have received NONE of the features I “paid” for and Apple will not honor a refund even though I was supposed to be on a “ free trial” for seven days.

### 1/5 — Unable to purchase pro features since new update

*2026-08-14, version 2.217*

…tried reopen app multiple times and it doesn’t work

### 1/5 — Not free? No way!

*2026-08-14*

They let to inform you of the charge at the very last  second, after you go through all the hassles.

**Developer response:** Hi msndjrbf! I'm Peter, CTO of Wanderlog. Sorry about the confusion - Wanderlog is free, but you can subscribe for advanced features like exporting to Google Maps. To skip the subscribe screen, just tap on the X to the top-left of the page: see https://tinyurl.com/skipsubscribe for more. Does that work? Email me at peterxu@wanderlog.com for more help.

### 5/5 — Must have travel app

*2026-08-26, version 2.218*

Easiest way to stay organized during a trip in a foreign country. Can copy addresses straight from the app. Lifesaver.

### 5/5 — Best travel app

*2026-08-26, version 2.218*

Best travel app

### 5/5 — Extremely helpful for planning itinerary!

*2026-08-26, version 2.218*

I used the free version of this app for the first time to plan a trip to Alaska and absolutely loved it. You can add your flights and hotels and get suggestions for what to do each day based on where you’ll be. A link to the directions auto populates between different places in your itinerary to give you an idea of how much you’ll be driving (or walking/taking public transport). You can open the link in Google/Apple maps and you can view all your locations on a map color coded by day! This had all the features I was looking for in a travel app and made planning our trip enjoyable.

### 5/5 — easy to use

*2026-08-24, version 2.218*

i love that it suggests places for you to go for cities that you input! i also like that i can keep track of where i went and what i did.

### 5/5 — Fun, practical, and beautiful app!

*2026-08-24, version 2.218*

I love this app for trip planning. I love that I can be watching a reel somewhere and find a spot Iwant to travel to and add it into the trip and it shows where everything is on a map so you can decide what places you want to go to that are close together. It’s great that you can share it with members of your traveling group and friends and family that are staying at home so they know the types of activities you will be doing and about the time

### 5/5 — Great Trip Planning App

*2026-08-24, version 2.218*

Love having all the information in one place.  Especially for multi site European trips.

### 5/5 — Like it so far

*2026-08-23, version 2.218*

I like this app so far, using it to plan my bday trip, no unwanted and unnecessary ads or subscriptions which I appreciate- to use the basic plan.

### 5/5 — Vacation must

*2026-08-23, version 2.218*

I planned a complicated family vacation to Peru that included 7 flights to 4 different regions, tours, etc. This app not only helped keep all our reservations, itineraries organized but also helped us organize our expenses. I also loved the recommendations, and that everyone in the group had access to the all the information. My favorite feature is that you can email the flights/hotel reservations to the app and it populates all the information! No need to look thru emails to find the info! Great job creating this app!

### 5/5 — Essencial

*2026-08-23*

Usei o Wanderlong para montar minha primeira viagem internacional, foi essencial para saber como eram os locais, horários e dias de funcionamento, uma única coisa que acredito que o app pode melhorar é em vincular a rota no app do Maps para que por lá possamos traçar todos os caminhos sequencialmente igual ao planejado no Wanderlong.

### 5/5 — Highly recommend

*2026-08-23, version 2.218*

A huge help in trip planning. Our trip was definitely better because I used it.
