Stippl - Travel Planner 4+

Wanted to input a 3-week trip itinerary through multiple countries and I was unable to create a trip directly. Instead, I had to select 1 of the five countries, then manually choose cities in the other countries via the search bar. One issue with this search bar, at the time I was using it, was that neither the capital of Kosovo (Pristina) nor the capital of Albania (Tirana) were options.

I’d have to say though, amidst its imperfections, it is actually a very helpful tool in visualizing how far apart ALL of the cities in your itinerary are, enabling you to make a more manageable trip that more accurately depicts travel times.

Hey Hornet34,

We just launched an update! Tirana is now findable! Pristina we will work on making sure you can find it as well!

Hope Stippl will remain useful to you! If you have any other feedback or suggestions let us know at support@stippl.io! :)

i’m writing this review before i finish planning my trip because i just love this app so far. it still seems like a work in progress but for the most part it’s fully functional! i wish there was a way to add what time you’re landing in the place at the beginning of the trip. if we were also able to see the time zones and the difference between then, that would be perfect. like the US has like 4 time zones and that’s confusing if you don’t know that and are planning a trip [wrote something here but erased it, they have a feature i didn’t figure out till now] overall it’s a cool app! if i could afford to travel more i’d use this app as my main planner instead of the google doc that i use. also note to developers: it would be cool if down the line there was a feature to export the trip as a pdf or whatever pdf file apple uses (pages? i don’t like it tbh). that would be awesome!

only complaint is about adding hotels. sometimes i press the plus, add a link, and it doesn’t show up. i think it saves to my wishlist…

Hey!

thanks so much for this nice feedback and using the app! Regarding the adding of hotels & links this should work better now! Hope its the case for you. Otherwise let us know at support@stippl.io!

Parts of this app I love, but it’s extremely limiting. For example, you can’t alter the dates between one destination to the next. Let’s say you’re taking a cruise and it takes 2 sea days to get from Singapore to Phuket, you can’t account for those 2 days in the planner, it only gives you a 24 hour option which is crazy. The next thing I don’t like is the app doesn’t sync from my phone to my iPad. This is extremely annoying. Whatever changes I make using my iPhone I’ll have to separately go into the iPad app and make those same changes. The third thing I don’t like about this app to the point I may just stop using it all together is every time I do ANYTHING in the app, such as pick a place to eat, the app will freeze for AT LEAST 2 minutes. I wish this app was way more customizable in terms of dates, in between places, etc like TripIt. What I love about it is how it will create a little video of your trip and you can visually see your route, I also love the suggestions like hotels, things to do, and places to eat…love those features. I’d be more than happy to pay for this if they make it better all the way around.

Hey! So sorry to hear about your experience!

Some points from us that might help:
1. If you add a transport ferry, you can toggle 'overnight transport' and add multiple nights to the transport to account for te transport!
2. Yes for now you have to indeed restart the app on your ipad to see the changes! We will be implementing a refresh option in the app soon!
3. About the freezing, wow thats very annoying sorry! Could you let us know at support@stippl.io what you were trying to do? We might be able to solve it for you!!
