Plan a city break that works on the ground: real places with real addresses, in a sensible order, with short walks between stops. Stamped also counts your Schengen days and turns your trips into a travel passport of your own. PLAN YOUR NEXT CITY BREAK • Tell Stamped where and when you're going, then set your pace and budget. • Add who's coming (solo, couple, friends or family) and what you're into: food, coffee, art, history, nature, nightlife, shopping and more. No prompts to write. • Get a day-by-day plan with a start time for every stop. It can take up to about two minutes to build. • Open any stop, or the whole route, in Apple Maps. • With Pro quick edits, swap a stop, rebuild a day, or make the plan cheaper, more local, more food-first or lighter on walking, without starting over. Check opening hours, tickets and local conditions before you go. CHECK YOUR SCHENGEN DAYS • See days used and days left in the 180-day window, counted from your trips in Stamped. Free. • Check whether a planned trip fits. The first check is free; Pro checks every one. • Always an estimate, not legal advice. Confirm with official sources before you travel. KEEP YOUR TRIPS • Find past trips in your photo library: the last two years by default, or all photos. The scan runs on your device and never uploads your photos or sends them to AI. • Each trip becomes a boarding-pass ticket with a city stamp. • Your travel map shows countries, cities, continents and travel days. • Collect badges from First Stamp to Globetrotter. • Share a trip as a ticket card or share page, add it to your calendar, and get optional reminders and trip anniversaries. FREE AND PRO Start as a guest. Free includes one new AI plan a day with Day 1 in full, your Schengen balance and one planned-trip check. Travel history, tickets and sharing stay free. Stamped Pro adds: • Every day of your plan, not just Day 1 • Up to 5 full plans and 20 quick edits a day • Saved plans and their earlier versions • One tap to add a full plan to your Trips • Schengen checks for every planned trip, saved with the trip AI AND PRIVACY Plans are generated by a third-party AI service from the trip brief you enter. Before your first plan, Stamped shows what will be sent and asks for your permission. Personalization from your Stamped travel history is used only if you turn it on; you can change this in Settings. SUBSCRIPTION Stamped Pro is an auto-renewable subscription. Payment is charged to your Apple Account when you confirm the purchase or, if you start a free trial, when the trial ends. It renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel it in your App Store account settings.
