ALL ABOARD, Your Complete Cruise Planning Companion Don't be that passenger watching the ship sail away. All Aboard handles ship time, port departure deadlines, and everything else you need to stay organized at sea. NEVER MISS THE SHIP Set the all-aboard time at each port. The app sounds a high-priority alarm 30, 60, 90 minutes or longer before, even on Do Not Disturb. Always double-check the ship's posted all-aboard time before you step off the ship. SHIP TIME Cruise ships often run on a different time zone than the port. All Aboard handles the offset and removes the confusion so you always know what time it is on the ship. DAY-BY-DAY PLANNER Lay out your whole cruise: travel days, embark, each port, sea days, and disembark, with the all-aboard time for every stop. Add shore excursions, dining, and travel to any day, and browse and book tours for each port right from your plan. Set custom reminders so you don't miss the start of the show or that bingo game. CRUISE MILESTONE REMINDERS All Aboard reminds you of the dates that sneak up on you: when online check-in opens, when your final payment is due, and when it is time to start packing. These reminders arrive even when the app is closed, so nothing important slips by. ROLL CALL See others who have joined the Roll Call for your next cruise and join in on the conversations on our social media sites. TRIP LEDGER See what your cruise really costs in one place. Add each purchase and tag what it was, such as a drink, dinner, gratuity, souvenir, or excursion, and All Aboard tallies your spend by category with a running balance that you can mark paid as you go. No surprise bill on the last morning. CLOUD SYNC (optional feature) Sign in once and your cruises follow you across your phone, tablet, and the web planner. It is completely optional. Your itinerary, alarms, and packing list all work across your devices if you choose to use cloud sync. PLAN ON THE WEB Prefer a big screen? Build your trip at allaboardcc.com, then sync it straight to the app (with cloud sync) or scan it in with a QR code (no account required). CRUISE HISTORY Every cruise you finish is archived in your Voyages log, so you can look back on where you have sailed. Optionally, sync your voyages to the web with a Cloud Sync account. SHIP & PORT REVIEWS AND PHOTOS Read reviews of the ships and ports and share your own from your itinerary. Post photos of the ships, ports, cruise food, and excursions you've experienced, and browse what others have shared. PRINT AND PDF Print your complete itinerary, packing list or ledger, or save as a PDF to share. SMART WEATHER On a port day you'll see today's port name, temperature, and a personality caption, from "SNORKEL WEATHER" on warm Cozumel days to "HOLD ONTO YOUR HAT" when the wind picks up. TRANSLATE IN EVERY PORT In each port, tap to translate the local language with Google Translate, and All Aboard suggests the offline language pack to install before you sail, so you can get by even without a connection. ESSENTIALS HUB Keep your booking confirmation, insurance, packing list, allergies and meds, emergency contacts, travel agent info, Wi-Fi notes, Consular assistance information, Ship codes and more in one place. Attach photos and PDFs to each section. WEAR OS and APPLE WATCH The companion watch app puts the countdown on your wrist and delivers the all-aboard alarm even when your phone is in the pool bag. Add the All Aboard Tile to swipe straight to your countdown. HOME SCREEN WIDGET Glance at your countdown without unlocking your phone. Pin a separate widget for each cruise, each showing its ship name. BACKUP AND SHARE One-tap backup saves your cruise to your phone. Share it with a travel companion who installs All Aboard, taps the file, and instantly has the same plan.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: TripMate Pro at none against All Aboard's 1. TripMate Pro also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). All Aboard's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs every 6 weeks). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
