Trip Map & places
Organize your Trip Map and places
The Trip Map connects the places in your journey with the relevant days. It helps you plan a route before departure and stay oriented while travelling.
The Trip Map shows the route and saved travel places
- Save places that matter for the route, accommodation or daily plan.
- Add airports and accommodation to the relevant travel days.
- Review the next stages regularly on longer journeys.
Trip Timeline
Use the Trip Timeline and DayCards
The Trip Timeline is the chronological record of your journey. Each DayCard keeps the information, places, expenses and photos for one day together in a clear place.
All travel days in the Trip Timeline
- Open the DayCard for the relevant travel day.
- Keep places, expenses and photos in the appropriate DayCard.
- Complete individual days while the memories are still fresh.
Planning & organization
Organize travel documents
Collect and organize all your important travel documents, such as flight tickets, airport parking confirmations, ferry tickets, activity vouchers and entry documents. Everything stays close at hand when you need it, instead of being buried in inboxes or scattered across provider apps.
Open Documents under Planning & Organization
- Use Documents for bookings, tickets, vouchers and official paperwork.
- Save only the documents you will actually need during the trip.
- Assign time-sensitive documents to the day when you need them.
Budget & expenses
Manage your travel budget and expenses
This guide explains how to record, organize and review travel expenses with WanderSpend before and during your trip. As a permanently free travel budget tracker, the app connects planned budgets with the actual costs of your journey.
Budget Card: planned amount and current spending
- Use a short description that will still make sense later.
- Use the standard categories for accommodation, transport, food and other common costs.
- With no additional traveller, 100% is assigned to Me automatically.
During your trip
Use the Currency Calculator and Activity Finder on the road
The Currency Calculator converts prices without creating an expense. The Activity Finder helps you find activities, tours and experiences for a city or region.
Convert travel prices with the latest loaded exchange rates
- Open the Currency Calculator once while online before entering an area with poor reception.
- Use the displayed last-update time to see when the exchange rates were loaded.
- Search the Activity Finder by destination, nearby area or category.
WanderSpend Photobook
Design your WanderSpend Photobook
Tap “Preview day in Photobook” in the DayCard to open the page generated from that day. The live preview grows with the trip, so you can check the result immediately and adjust the note or photo selection while you still remember the day.
The DayCard provides the content for the book page
- Open the Photobook preview directly from the DayCard.
- Adjust the cover and route map to suit your trip.
- Take time to review the selection and order of the content.
