Palo Alto, San Jose and the whole Peninsula are in: Stanford, University Avenue, Mountain View, Redwood City, San Mateo, downtown San Jose, Los Gatos, Saratoga and Cupertino, with walks, arrival alerts and the events of the season. Cities added after an update are now plannable right away. Readers near an airport see the town they are in, not only the big city the airport serves. In a town with good tables of its own, lunch and dinner stay local. Small fixes.

Arrival alerts, even with the app closed. Turn them on in the You tab and Appricio tells you when you reach a city with something big on: "You're in Munich. Oktoberfest is on." It checks on your phone against its own list of major events, at most once a day, and never sends or stores where you are. Plus. A day by bike. Where a city is made for it (Amsterdam, Copenhagen, Munich along the Isar, San Francisco to Sausalito with the ferry back, Danville's Iron Horse Trail), the walk chooser offers a day by bike along the city's signature ride: the stops from Appricio's own library, the bikes at the start, the way back at the end. Evenings for one and for two. Tell the You tab you travel solo and the Nightlife lead is a room where people meet; say couple and it is an evening for two. Every bar and late table was judged for both. Events, more of them and in order: the big events of the next six weeks and the signature events of the next six months, listed in time order. Also: a table is local (a restaurant twenty minutes away never leads over a good one where you stand, unless it is the place's icon); an island is reached by boat and a walk says so instead of sending you there on foot; the small hours lead with the first coffee at its hour, never a bar that shut at two or a museum before its doors open; a plan for the next town over measures its cafes by car; a tour by car in a city without one is a day by taxi on real road minutes; tap a stop's number and the map goes there; See all on the events lists the full lines; plain characters everywhere.

Walks. Open Appricio where you are and it lays out the day: coffee, the sights, lunch, the afternoon, the light, dinner, a last drink, in an order that makes sense on foot, with the way between them on the map. It knows the hour, the weather and what is closed today. Start it and it walks with you. Where the sights are a drive apart, the day is a tour by car, planned on real driving times. Start from any stop: tap its number. Tap "I'm here" too soon and one tap takes it back. Every landmark within reach is on some day. Where one day cannot hold them all, there is a second and a third, on foot or by car. In the evening the card keeps tonight's walk and plans tomorrow. Also new: the map colours its pins by lane and a tap shows the place before you open it; coffee is had where you are, not a drive away; every place keeps its own clock; a planned place is measured from where its sights are; far places are shown as a ride instead of an hour's walk; the feed no longer leads with a place it knows is shut; and Saved shows everything you have kept and everywhere you have been.

Small fixes from a full review of 1.2.0, and a better answer to what to do now. The feed leads with the best thing that fits the moment: what a place is known for comes first, a table when you are hungry, a room when it rains. Places booked weeks ahead no longer lead, a weekend market waits for the weekend, and a ski resort waits for winter. The Don't miss card names the next thing a first visit should include. When you are in Napa Valley, at Lake Tahoe or on Kauai, the feed leads with their real draws, by car. Walk or ride to the next town and the guide comes with you. Shared article links open the article. The Info tab follows the place you are planning, as the Magazine does, and shows each picture once. Early mornings read as mornings, not as last night. The city search finds Appricio cities first. Pins on the Around-you map open the place again, and a tap on the map opens a full map you can move and zoom. Plus small copy and layout fixes.

The Magazine. A new tab: short, opinionated articles about your city, one new one a month. First 24 hours in Munich. Where Paris eats lunch. Bars in Barcelona that are not for tourists. This season, as it happens. Every place named is a live Appricio venue: tap it to open it, bookmark the article to keep it, share it and the link opens right back in the app. A card on Now points to the article that fits the moment. Where to sleep: first-day articles end with two or three stays chosen for fit, not commission. Tap the tab you are on to return to its top; on the Magazine that also brings back the list. Photos that had gone stale reload on their own. Plus small fixes and polish.

Plan any moment. Tap the time chip for this morning, lunch, the afternoon or tonight, with the forecast for that hour. Tap the place chip to plan the next town over, or a city you are flying to (that part is Plus). One tap on Now brings you back. Landmarks now say so. Cards carry ICONIC, MUST-SEE and CULTURE HOUSE marks, and every culture house links straight to its own programme. Trips show the events that fall on your dates. Hidden picks are never lost: a small line under the feed shows how many you set aside, with a one-tap way back. Every place now shows its street address, with a link to open it in Google Maps. Restore purchases now says exactly what happened. Plus small fixes and polish.

Say "Not now" to any pick and it means exactly that: it steps aside for now and the next idea takes its place. Your taste is untouched, and it comes back later in the day. Trips got sharper. Browse your trip city by lane (eat, cafe, see, experiences, shop, nightlife) right inside the trip screen and its search. Trips to smaller towns now land on the right city guide every time, with the full area's places and events. Marked a place as visited by mistake? Tap it again to undo, right where you are. Brand-new cities get a little more patience while we build them for you, instead of an early error. Plus small fixes and polish.

Shared places now open right in the app. Send a friend a place link and it lands on the venue, not a web page. Now 50 cities: Hamburg, Florence, Dublin, and Osaka join the catalog, free in full like all the rest. Plan trips faster: type any city on Earth right in the New Trip screen and pick from live matches. A bigger events calendar: see every upcoming event, grouped by when it happens. Weather now reads a summer shower correctly. Rain is no longer mistaken for a cold snap, so terraces come back the moment the sky clears. Plus fixes and polish from launch week.

Share is here. Send any place — or a whole trip — as a beautiful card with a link that just works. • Share venues and trips in one tap • New trip creator: search any city on Earth, with smart suggestions from where you are • Your taste dials now shape recommendations more precisely • Sharper search, better evening picks, and dozens of refinements from our first testers
