Everything SwipeSights Can Do, Screen by Screen

From the first idea to the memories afterward: every feature, with the screen it lives on.

SwipeSights is a group trip planner built on one idea: everyone swipes on real places, and the votes become the plan.

Around that idea sits a whole app, from the first idea to the memories afterward. Here is all of it, screen by screen, so you can see exactly what it does before you start.

Home: your next trip

Home counts down to your next trip, with its plan and its invite one tap away, and gives you ideas for the one after.

Home: a countdown for a Rome trip with Open plan and Invite, Plan a new trip, and recent trips
Home: festivals and seasonal events coming up, and trending destinations
The countdown to your trip, and what is coming up around the world.

Start a trip

Start with one city, a few cities, or a single sentence. Pick where and when, choose how much the group wants to swipe, and share one link.

The new trip screen: one city, multi-city or describe it, with the city, where you stay, the dates and how much to swipe
Describe it: type or say the trip in a sentence, or paste a WhatsApp chat, then just plan it or let the group vote
One city or several, or the whole trip in a sentence.

Decide together

Everyone swipes on real places, each on their own phone. Right to like, up for a must-see, left to skip, and nobody has to be the organizer.

Interests: photo scenes like historic old towns, street art and rooftop cocktails that tune the deck and Explore
The swipe deck, and the interests that shape it.

The votes become the plan

The plan builds itself from the votes. Places are grouped by area, each day runs in walking order around opening hours, and lunch and dinner land near the stops.

Day 1 of a Prague plan: the day on a map, then each stop with its time, opening hours and the walk to the next
The whole Prague trip on one map, each day of stops numbered in its own color
A day of a Prague plan, and the whole trip on one map.
A multi-city day: the train from the Isle of Skye to Glasgow, then the day in Glasgow
Editing the plan: the stops of each day in a list, ready to drag between days
A multi-city day, and moving stops around.
Ideas for a Prague trip: places and events saved for later, each with Add to plan

Premium: multi-city trips, editing the plan and restaurant picks.

Every place has its page

Tap any place for the whole story. Photos, what it is, reviews, where it is, and what is around it.

Book what the plan needs

Bookings come from the plan, not a search box. The tickets, stays and flights are the ones this trip needs.

Tickets for a Prague plan: the stops that sell them, each with the day and time of the visit and a Book button
Hotels in Prague ranked by how much you would walk to the stops each day
Tickets for the stops that sell them, and stays ranked by your walks.
Flights from London for the trip dates, cheapest first
Everything booked for the trip: add a booking, or forward the confirmation email
Flights for your dates, and every booking in one place.

Explore any city

Explore works for any city, around you or before you go. It is where to look for more than the plan holds.

Explore in San Francisco: the city on a map by category, with Hidden Gems and Nature below
Events in San Francisco on the trip dates: concerts and games
The city on one map, and what's on while you're there.

Your crew and the money

Friends who travel together get a crew: a chat, things to decide and the places everyone loved, trip or no trip.

A crew's own space: chat, decide, loved places, ask, members and invites
Ask: tell it what you are looking for, like spots to see, cooking classes or a film tonight, and it finds real options

Money for a group: who owes whom, the shared budget and the costs split between friends

After the trip, keep it. Every trip leaves something behind.

The travel map: trips across Britain and France, with a button to log a trip
