2See spending broken down by category and by traveler at a glance.
3Split an expense across the group and each person's share is worked out for you.

06 / SHARED TRIPS

Bring everyone along, without losing control.

Share a trip and the people travelling with you see the same plan you do — while every change still goes through you.

1Generate a share link from Profile, or send an invite straight to someone's email.
2They follow the trip and it lands in their own Globe Skimmer, itinerary and all.
3Followers suggest places; suggestions wait in your review inbox until you approve them.
4Approved entries keep a "From [Name]" tag, so credit sticks to whoever found the spot.

07 / MOMENTS

The trip, after the trip.

Photos you add along the way collect into an album for that trip — so the plan and the pictures end up in the same place.

1Add photos from your phone as the trip happens, or all at once when you get home.
2Each trip gets its own album automatically — no folders to set up.
3Tap any photo for the full-screen view, and swipe through the trip.
4Anyone following the trip sees the album too.

08 / ITCHY

Ask, and it works from your actual trip.

Itchy is grounded in your own saved trip details — not guesses. Ask questions, attach documents, and let it fill in the itinerary for you.

1Ask Itchy anything about your trip — it's grounded in your own saved details.
2Attach a confirmation PDF or screenshot and Itchy reads it for you.
3Approve a suggestion and it's added straight to your itinerary.
4Ask it to move, edit, or drop an entry and it changes the real trip, not just the chat.

3Turn on trip reminders to get a nudge as departure approaches.
4Share a trip, manage who's following it, and export the whole itinerary to PDF.
