TripIt App Update.

TripIt notified users this week of an update to there iOS mobile app (promises of an Android update were made!) which included some user feedback requests, which is always a good thing! We reviewed the app back in February and ultimately felt it was a great app we really wanted to get on with but did struggle. Maybe these new additions will help!

These new additions really do make you feel that the TripIt app will be your one stop shop for your door to door travel experience. The press release did not make it clear of all airlines are covered for the mobile check in, or who and how the local ground transportation is selected/verified, but these are all very welcome updates.

You can download the App from your relevant app store:

iOS, Android, Blackberry, Windows
