Overlap shows you when your friends' travel plans line up with yours. Share where you're going, see who's headed to the same place, and never miss a chance to meet up. HOW IT WORKS Add your upcoming trips — or let Overlap find them automatically by syncing your calendar. Your plans appear on an interactive map alongside your friends' trips. When dates and destinations align, Overlap lets you know. MAP VIEW See everyone's travel plans on a interactive map. Tap any pin to see who's going where, when they'll be there, and how your dates overlap. SHARE TRIPS IN SECONDS Add single or multi-destination trips with dates, descriptions, and co-travelers. Choose who sees your plans — friends only, groups, or just you. FEELER TRIPS Not sure about a destination yet? Post a "feeler" to gauge interest before committing. Friends can react and comment to help you decide. SMART CALENDAR SYNC Connect calendars you choose and Overlap finds travel plans to suggest privately. Review each suggestion and tap Post to share it on your map. OVERLAP DETECTION The Overlap tab shows every upcoming trip with a breakdown of who you'll overlap with — friends traveling at the same time, people who live nearby, and recent visitors. NOTIFICATIONS THAT MATTER Get notified when a friend is traveling to your city, when your travel dates overlap, when someone reacts to your plans, and when you get friend requests or group invites. FRIENDS & GROUPS Find friends already on Overlap by syncing your contacts. Create or join groups for coordinated travel — family trips, friend circles, or travel clubs. BIRTHDAY REMINDERS Overlap imports birthdays from your contacts so you never forget a friend's special day. SHARE & INVITE Share your profile or individual trips via iMessage, WhatsApp, or any app. Personal referral links make it easy to bring your whole crew.
