Sound familiar?

Six apps. One trip.

Right now your trip lives in six places. The group chat, where the hotel link is 300 messages up. The itinerary doc only one person updates. The split app half the group never installed. Photos stuck on everyone’s phones. The reels you saved “for the trip”. The tickets in someone’s inbox.

MyTravelCircle puts all of it in one trip, and everyone you invite sees the same thing.

Keep the group chat for the memes. Keep the trip here.

01 · Start

“Goa, anyone?” Make it a real trip.

Give it a name, add where you’re going and say when: exact dates, just the month, or “not sure yet”. Even a trip without dates gets Day 1, Day 2, Day 3 to plan around.

  • Several stops in one trip, each with its own dates.
  • Search 150,000+ cities, plus states and whole countries.
  • Rupees by default, and 68 currencies for trips abroad.

Then send one link.

  • Share it on WhatsApp, copy it anywhere, or let people scan a QR code. Before they join, friends see who invited them, the trip, the dates and how many are going.
  • Not on the app yet? Add them by name. They’re in the splits from day one, and everything moves to their account when they join.
  • Make a circle once (your family, your college gang, your office crew) and bring the same people into every trip.
New Trip, step 1 of 3, “Plan your trip”: the trip name Goa 2026, “When are you going?” with I know the dates selected (the other choices are Only the month and Not sure yet), and the first destination, Palolem, India, with its From and To dates still to pick, above Cancel and Next.
Name it, pick the place, set the dates.
Add members to a trip, Invite tab: “Share one secure invite link with people you trust”, a Share invite link button, then WhatsApp, Copy link, QR code and More, above the Invite links and Pending invites lists, both still empty.
Then send one link.

02 · Chat

The group chat becomes Trip chat

A group chat that knows it’s a trip.

Every trip, and every circle, has its own chat, one tap from the plan and the expenses. Settle “which beach?” with a poll, react to the best idea, and drop a pin so everyone can find you.

  • Polls: everyone votes, everyone sees the result.
  • Quick reactions, read counts, and edit or delete your own messages.
  • Share your location once, as a pin. Never tracking.
  • The trip’s activity feed shows what changed: new photos, expenses and plans.
Goa 2026 trip chat: Ravi says the scooters are sorted, Meera asks for a slow start, Kabir’s Butterfly Beach boat idea has two thumbs-up, Dev asks for veg options, and your “Dinner tonight?” poll shows Goan thali at 60% and the two other options at 20% each from 5 votes, read by 4. Meera has shared a Palolem Beach location pin with Open in Maps.

03 · Plan

The itinerary doc becomes Shared plan

A day-by-day plan everyone can see.

Build it stop by stop, or tell the planner your pace, budget and who’s coming (kids and grandparents included) and get a first draft in minutes. Nothing is added to your trip until you’ve reviewed it.

  • Vegetarian or Jain food, no long drives, a late start: say it once.
  • It explains each pick, flags what’s worth knowing, and lists what it left out on purpose.

Then make it yours.

  • Everyone on the trip can add and move stops.
  • Refine one day: “Make it more relaxed”, “Add a local food stop”, “More for kids”.
  • Lock the stops you love so AI changes never touch them, and undo the last AI change.
  • Rest days, a shared packing checklist, and a PDF for anyone not on the app.

AI suggestions are a planning aid. Check timings, prices and bookings before you go.

AI plan brief for Kerala, “Tell us a few things”: pace relaxed, budget mid-range in INR, travel by cab, family with kids and elders, 7 travellers, interests food, culture and nature, and must-visit Alleppey houseboat, with 5 drafts left, a Customize more section and a Generate plan button.
Tell the planner who’s coming
Goa 2026 plan, Day 2, 20 Oct, with 4 stops: a day rail from Day 1 to Day 4, the AI’s take on this day, “Patnem beach and South Goa heritage”, buttons to refine the day with AI or start it over, Undo last AI change, and the first stop, Patnem Beach at 09:00, locked.
Then make it yours.

Worth knowing

“Cabo de Rama is best done by taxi or self-drive; public transport can be slow and indirect.”

04 · Pack & docs

Notes and tickets becomes Checklist and Docs

Packed, booked and easy to find.

One shared checklist for the trip: paste in a whole list, tick things off and watch the packed count climb. Need ideas? Add items straight from your AI plan.

Tickets and IDs, one tap away.

Keep flights, stays, visas and insurance in the trip’s Docs, so nobody is digging through their inbox at check-in.

  • Choose who sees each document: the whole trip, or only you.
  • IDs and health papers start as “Only me”.
Goa 2026 packing checklist: 75% packed, 18 of 24 items, 6 remaining across 4 categories, with progress for Electronics, Toiletries, Clothing and Essentials and a “Need help packing?” prompt.

05 · Expenses

The split app becomes Expenses

Split it fairly. Settle it simply.

Anyone on the trip can add an expense the moment it happens. Split it equally, by exact amounts, by percentage or by shares, or adjust one person’s part. Paid in baht? Log it in baht and set the exchange rate right on the form; the app converts it to the trip currency.

  • Several people paid? Add each payer and their amount.
  • Receipt photos and comments on every expense, plus a full activity log.

See who owes whom. Then settle.

MyTravelCircle works out the fewest payments that clear everyone, or shows exactly who owes whom. Paid back on UPI or in cash? Mark it settled, even part of it.

MyTravelCircle keeps the record. No money moves through the app.

  • PDF or CSV reports when the trip’s done.
Add expense: Boat to Butterfly Beach, 4800 in INR, in the Activities category, paid by You and split equally among everyone, with More options for 21 Oct 2026 and an Add Expense button.
Add it. Split it equally.
Goa 2026 expenses: you owe ₹1,200 of a ₹54,000 total spend. Settle up shows 4 pending: you owe Ravi Bhat ₹1,200, Priya Nair owes Ravi Bhat ₹9,000 and Meera Iyer owes Ravi Bhat ₹4,800, each with a Settle button, above today’s expenses: the boat to Butterfly Beach, ₹4,800, which you paid and split between 6, and a ₹3,000 cafe breakfast that Kabir Sethi paid.
See who owes whom. Then settle.

06 · Photos

Everyone’s camera roll becomes Trip album

Every photo, sorted by day.

  • Browse by day, or just yours, the videos, or the favourites.
  • Save any photo to your phone in a tap.

By the numbers

The app’s numbers. Ours come later.

We’re new, so there are no download counts or star ratings here yet. These are numbers we can stand behind.

  • 5 ways to split a bill
  • 13 collage styles
  • 68 currencies in the picker, plus any 3-letter code
  • 150,000+ cities in the destination search, built into the app
  • 3 ways to set dates: exact, month or not sure
  • 8 kinds of travel documents
  • 1 invite link for the whole group

Privacy

You decide who sees what. Yours to delete.

  • Trips are for the people on them.

    Plans, chat, money, photos and documents are visible only to the trip’s members. If a trip is made in a circle, anyone in that circle can join it without an invite, unless it’s a paid trip.

  • Circles are invite-only.

    Unless an admin chooses to list one in Discover. Everyone in a circle, including people who join from Discover, sees the other members’ names and email addresses.

  • Documents can be “Only me”.

    IDs and health papers start that way.

  • Location only when you share it.

    One pin in the chat, when you tap Share location. Never tracking. Photos you add can include where they were taken, if your camera saved it.

  • A code, not a password.

    We email you a 6-digit code when you sign in.

  • Report anyone.

    From their profile, in any shared trip or circle.

We do not sell personal data.

Questions

Straight answers.

Does everyone need to download the app?

To join the trip, chat and see the plan, yes: they install the app and join with your link. For money, you can add friends by name before they join, and anyone can get the plan as a PDF.

Is MyTravelCircle free?

It’s free to download from the App Store and Google Play. Full AI drafts come with a monthly allowance per person, and the app shows how many you have left.

Does MyTravelCircle move money?

No. Settle up on UPI, in cash or however you like, then mark it settled. The app keeps the record; it never holds or sends money.

Can it book flights or hotels?

No. Book wherever you like, then keep the tickets and confirmations in the trip’s Docs so everyone can find them.

How does the AI planner work?

Tell it your pace, budget, interests and who’s coming. It writes a day-by-day draft, explains its picks and what it left out, and nothing is added to your trip until you say so. Treat it as a starting point and check timings and prices before you go.

Does it work for trips abroad?

Yes. Choose from 68 currencies (or any 3-letter currency code) and log each expense in the currency you paid in, at an exchange rate you set on the form. The app is in English.

Which phones does it work on?

iPhone with iOS 15.1 or later, and Android 7.0 or later. There’s no iPad or web version.

I installed the app from an invite. How do I join?

Sign in, then tap your invite link again, or paste it on Home under “Have an invite code? Join here”.

How do I delete my account or my data?

In the app: on Home, tap your profile photo or initials, then My Profile, then Security & Privacy, then Delete account. You can also ask us by email, as described on our Delete account page, or remove only some data on Delete your data. Your messages, expenses and other things you added to shared trips and circles stay for the other members, shown as from “Deleted traveler”; the photos, videos and documents you uploaded and the recommendations you posted are deleted.

Your next trip starts with one link.
