I lile this app, although haven't used it much. It's a bit like Letterboxd for trips. One thing I'd really like is the option to add countries visited in the past without all the faffy details and dates... Like I know I went to Scotland, Florida, Majorca as a kid, etc, and various countries on different cruises, so I want to 'tick' that I've been to those countries, but I have no idea when it was! Just let me add that I've visited a country, without adding loads of trip details.

Love it. Great to log your own travels and get book printed. Great to follow friends n see their photos and news. One thing I noticed is that you really need to log the place ASAP to get the location, as when donr later it can't find the post code so you have to zoom in on the map to get the exact location.

It's an excellent app! Functionality is perfect... I really like that I finally can have my travel diary, photos and even map locations in one place. Edit: It DESPERATELY needs an option to only upload over WiFi or to not automatically sync!! I've accidentally used loads of data because I didn't realise it just starts uploading as soon as I'm connected.
