Works well enough-ish I guess, until you either do not exactly go to where you had been planning on going to or -god forbid- you actually want to correct a location. 9 out of 10 times the application instead dumps your step on top of the previous one I stead after saving. This goes wrong repeatedly and makes correcting locations (which I have to do about 50% of the time even with location services always on and battery optimization disabled for the app) extremely infuriating. No support either.

Love the way you can share your travel notes with family and friends. Suggestions to make it even better - Possibility to add a title to an uploaded photo - Users joining steps i.o. full trips - Overlapping trips. I did a half-year business trip, and within I did a couple of trips (with others). I can't add them both because they overlap - Provide method of travel when planning a trip (plane/car/..) - Create a full album editor. It takes a lot of time to generate a photobook (after every edit)
