Great app with lots of potential
I’ve been looking for an app like this for a while. I like the idea of just entering itineraries manually, rather than uploading them to some company’s servers for automation. The app itself has a really nice user interface that’s very simplistic and easy to navigate. The overview of the trip makes it easy to locate the information needed. It almost looks like a native iOS app, which I like. Entering information is easy and the support of different time zones is very welcome. It’s apparent that the app is still in its early stage but it’s already very useful as it is. And I think the developers could make this one of the best of its kind. The predefined trips are of no use, at least to me. I think most people would prefer their own itineraries, and the app itself has no useful information like one would find at TripAdvisor, etc. What I would like to see in future updates: Overview needs to show the time of arrival or end of activity in the overview. That would make it easier to see how much time is available between flights, or between events. It would be nice with more predefined activities, like ‘Sports’ and maybe even subcategories like ‘Soccer’, ‘Basketball’, etc. Localization would be nice ie. Danish language in my case. For trains and buses, there needs to be a text field for numbers, like the one for ‘Company’ which will show in the overview. Dark mode Bug: for some reason, the iOS keyboard shortcut ‘double tap space bar to punctuate’ doesn’t work in this app. Bug: I set the time zone of the event to ‘Minneapolis - GMT -5’ but it kept changing it back to ‘Austin - GMT -5’ - Same time zone, but I’m going to Minnesota not Texas, so it’s just a small annoyance. Lastly; I need to address the subscription service. I do not like it. Not in this app, or any other app asides from newspaper apps. I would probably pay 10-15 Euros as a one-time purchase. In a year or so when a major update is ready, charge a small fee for the upgrade. At the moment the premium features are, at best, superfluous: Cloud functionality could be handled by iCloud instead of Tripsy Cloud. Predefined trips are not particularly useful Push notifications are free in most, if not all, apps from large airlines. share trip; could be useful for some.
