What it is
TripBuddy turns a sentence about a destination into a day-by-day itinerary for a group trip. Its map-data checks cover stops, addresses, opening hours and travel time. People can share a plan, rearrange stops or days, and comment; viewers do not need an account. If rain, closures or late trains disrupt a day, users can ask Buddy to rebuild it. TripBuddy also offers map views, booking links and calendar export. On a trip, its tools include lock-screen updates, Live Activities, widgets, spoken daily summaries, a phrasebook and currency tools. It is available on Android, iOS and web, and its Free plan costs nothing. Planning, place details, photos and the read-aloud guide require an internet connection. TripBuddy is based in Sheridan, Wyoming. Support is by email, with responses promised within two business days.
