New: the Trip Receipt — your trip itemized, from konbini runs to the earthquake you slept through — and City Bingo in all 51 cities, with your RyokōMate keeping score. You spend the day walking a city you have never been to. It is wonderful. Then you are back at the hotel with your shoes off, someone asks where you went, and what you have is: a street beginning with V, somewhere near the water, that place with the blue door. Ryokōya (旅行屋, "the travel shop") is a travel journal that remembers for you. Start a trip when you head out, then put your phone in your pocket. It notices the café you sat in, the shop you wandered into, and the neighborhood you crossed without meaning to — then hands you back the day as a story worth keeping. HOW IT WORKS • One tap to start a trip. • Screen off, phone away. Visits, landmarks, routes and neighborhoods are recorded in the background. • At the end you get a written story, a map of where you actually went, and stamps for the neighborhoods you earned. JOURNEYS Join the trips that belong together into one journey: one map with the trains between cities, your records, and one story with a chapter per city. Each makes a book of its own. RECEIPTS AND BINGO Every trip prints a receipt: steps, konbini runs, the earthquake you slept through and your RyokōMate's math, ready to share. Every city has a Bingo card too: nine things to do on foot. WHAT YOU END UP WITH • The route, not the highlights reel. Every walk, ferry, subway and bullet train, drawn as it happened. • A story in your own day's words, written from what actually happened. If Ryokōya didn't see it, it doesn't claim it. • Stamps and city crowns that only mint when you genuinely arrived. No participation trophies. • A designed book of every trip: its story, maps and your photos, free to read. • Share cards worth posting, which keep your hotel and your doorstep to yourself. PLAN THE TRIP AHEAD Build a route before you fly, check the weather window, and watch your wishlist light up as you get near it. CITY PACKS, CURATED BY HAND Fifty-one cities, 333 packs, 3,446 places — every one chosen for a reason, written up in a sentence worth reading, and verified by hand: coordinates, opening doors, and whether it still exists at all. Every city keeps a RyokōMate, a small local companion with folklore of their own, who turns up in your stories, shares what the locals know, and signs your books. Gigi guards Paris. Pon works Tokyo. Coo runs New York, badly. Every city ships with a free pack, so you can try one before buying anything. PRIVACY, WHICH IS RATHER THE POINT Your movements are the most personal data you have, and Ryokōya has no reason to know where you were. • No trackers, no analytics, no ad networks — no third-party SDKs at all. • Your trips live on your device, and in your own iCloud if you switch on backup. There is no Ryokōya server holding your history. • Location is recorded while a trip you started is running. When no trip is active, Ryokōya is not following you. • The one exception ships switched off. "Always Collecting" lets a City Pack place count between trips — places you already own, with no route and no GPS session recorded. RYOKŌYA PRO Free covers tracking, stories, stamps, trip books, and one curated pack in every city. Pro adds: • iCloud Sync & Backup, across all your devices • Unlimited trip plans — free keeps three on the go • Email story summaries • Automatic photo matching • Trip Radar: a nudge when a saved place is near • Walk View: first-person, street-level navigation • GPX route export, for any app and any map • Saving or sharing your trip book as a PDF Pro is $2.99 a month or $24.99 a year, both auto-renewing, or $69.99 once for a lifetime unlock. Trip Pass unlocks everything for 30 days and does not renew. Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. Manage or cancel your subscription in your Apple Account settings.

The Trip Receipt: your trip, itemized. • Every trip and journey prints a receipt: steps, konbini runs, Starbucks, Shinkansen rides, temples, rainy days, the earthquake you slept through, and your RyokōMate's own math. TOTAL: MEMORIES ∞. • Pin the lines you love, drop the rest, roll the dice for another mix, and share it on the night sky or on your own photo. • Win awards along the way: Konbini Connoisseur, Night Owl, Rain Walker, Marathoner and six more. • City Bingo: nine things to do in every city, checked off as you walk. Three in a row is a BINGO. • The new Playground on your Passport keeps your Bingo cards, your awards, and On This Day. • The journal shows each day's date and weather, and every day ends with a postcard from your companion. • Chapters announce each city in its own script, on its name in many languages; long journeys get a strip of dates to jump through. • A journey opens on a window of its own, and its book prints each day as the journal tells it. • Crown cards lead with the city, in its own color. • Your Passport's stamp list puts each city in bold. • Meet the RyokōMates: the companions in every city have a family name now. Every city still ships with a free pack. Made in New York, tested on foot.
