Read full description

Daylight Trip is a travel timeline that visualizes daylight and darkness at your destination, so you can plan a safe and comfortable itinerary. - The timeline paints each day in a 4-color gradient: night, morning twilight, daylight, and evening twilight. Just add your plans and instantly see which ones overlap with dark hours. - The overview screen stacks one 24-hour bar per day, revealing how daylight shrinks as you travel north — perfect for planning winter trips to high latitudes. - Works 100% offline with 34,000 cities built in. Time zones and daylight saving time are handled automatically. - Flights across time zones show departure and arrival in each city's local time. - Export your itinerary as a printable PDF (one overview page plus one page per day), designed to stay readable in black and white. - Built-in packing checklist with progress bar. Register your own regular items and reuse them on every trip. - Save multiple trips and switch between them with one tap. - No account, no data collection. Your itinerary stays on your device. Free: plan one trip up to 3 days, with PDF preview and packing checklist. Premium (one-time purchase, no subscription): unlimited days, PDF export and printing, custom packing items, and multiple saved trips.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Flight Board at none against Daylight Trip's 1. Daylight Trip's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 days vs every 2 months). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
