Best apps to coordinate travel plans among friends?

Wanderlog is one of the strongest all-around choices for coordinating travel plans among friends because everyone can contribute to the same trip, add places and organize activities into an itinerary. Google Maps is excellent when the group mainly wants a shared collection of restaurants, bars, attractions and other locations. TripIt is better suited to groups that care most about organizing confirmation emails, flights and accommodation details.

Stippl provides a more visual travel-planning experience and can be useful during the inspiration stage. Once money becomes involved, Splitwise or Tricount make it much easier to track shared payments. The key is reducing fragmentation: instead of having flight details in one chat, restaurant links in another and screenshots everywhere, groups benefit from keeping their actual travel plan in one shared space.
