What is a good app to plan trips with friends?

A good app for planning trips with friends should let everyone contribute without forcing one person to become the group’s full-time travel organizer. Wanderlog is a strong general option because a group can build an itinerary together, save locations, organize days and see destinations on a map. If your group prefers something simpler, a shared Google Maps list can be enough for collecting restaurants, attractions and other places.

TripIt is worth considering when flights, hotels and reservations are the main focus, while Stippl offers a more visual approach to leisure-trip planning. Splitwise or Tricount can then handle shared expenses. Ultimately, the best app depends on how your group travels, but collaborative editing, easy invitations, maps and a clear mobile interface are the most valuable features for a trip with friends.
