What Users Are Saying

Does not have the following locations: jeju, fukuoka, Turin, Kumamoto, Osaka, Kyoto, Tokyo. So not able to use for my trip

I’ve tried to add past trips, and it won’t let me change the date from today’s date for any of the steps.

I have raved about this app since the day I downloaded it and started using it. No lie, it is amazing! However, do NOT order a book! Within less than two months my binding is falling apart!

I loved this app before but I can’t believe they are partnering with some Ai nonsense, can’t trust any of these apps anymore.
