Travel Journal is a useful app for travel lovers and journal keepers to organize their past trips in chronological order. Our app is a helpful tool to remember your trips and memories by simply keeping dates, locations, and pictures with descriptions. You have probably made a hundred various trips in your life, such as a one-day hiking trip to Kjeragbolten, family summer camping, or a two-week vacation in Tahiti. Do you remember all your trip - the year, destination, companion/s, activities, or hotel you stayed at? Now, you can store travel information and memories neatly on your phone. Pick the best picture from the many thousand from each trip and create a simple travel journal. No sharing on SNS nor following or being followed by others. Keep this travel chronicle simple with minimal, necessary content. How to Use 1. Store one trip in one page of a journal book. No matter the type, keep all trip details in a journal, such as a family or graduation trip, summer vacation, honeymoon, or one-day hikes 2. Organize your past trips and make a simple journal to remember the date and location of the trips chronologically 3. Help yourself remember a trip memory with a picture, description, and comment about the trip.

Once your GPS recognizes your location, you are able to get a stamp of the country where you are currently located. The entry stamp can be displayed on the relevant journal page 5. Each journal page can be downloaded for printing, which can still be used for an analog journal in the style of a scrapbook Since all of your trip entries are stored locally in your phone, we do not keep your data
