The spreadsheet was fine until the flight moved.
RPlan is a trip planner built for plans that change. Shuffle days before you've committed to dates. Times stay local wherever you are. Costs convert into one currency as you go. Your packing list is a library you reuse, not a page you rewrite.
Plan the days before you know the dates.
Make a day, fill it, and decide later where it lands. Unassigned days sit to one side until the flights are booked, then drag into place. Nothing you write early has to be thrown away when the plan moves.
Pack from a library, not from memory.
Your bags and the items are saved once and reused every trip. Weights add up per bag and per trip, in g or lbs. Serial numbers get stored too, so the camera body is ready to be lost (just in case).
One screen for what's happening now.
Open the trip on your phone see what you're up to today: what's next, when, where, and how much free time you've got. Anyone following your share link sees the items you choose, and nothing else.
The trip stops changing. The places don't.
Archive a finished trip and it locks read-only, so you can refer back to it later. The places you saved stay on your map for next time.
Your trip data, when and where you need it most.
The trip you built on a laptop, opens on your phone at the check-in gate, no searching for a spreadsheet with a queue behind you.
You probably don't need a trip planner.
Most trips are fine in a notes app. Here's where each option actually stops working.
Great at first. Quickly disorganized.
A great first option for when you need to quickly draft a trip, Apple Notes, etc. Work great on mobile, but things quickly get disorganized and making sense of it can be a journey in itself.
Fine until the plan moves.
Unbeatable for costs, and you already know how to use it. But every time a flight shifts you're re-typing rows, timezones are a column you maintain by hand, and it's miserable to access on your phone.
Great at places. Not a plan.
The best place data there is, RPlan links straight to Google Maps for directions. What it won't do is tell you what order your days go in, what any of it costs, or what's still unbooked.
Nothing is shared until you share it.
RPlan feature public pages for family and friends to follow a trip, it can also show where you are while a trip is running. Both are off until you switch them on, and both switch off again the moment you say so.
Your public page doesn't exist until you create it. There is no discoverable directory.
Create and grant as many access codes as you like. Each can be removed independently and will kill access instantly.
Live location is a separate option, switchable per access code, with location data only captured while a trip is running.
Export the whole trip as a PDF whenever you like. Location and secrets data (booking references, etc.) are encrypted everywhere.
It suggests. You decide. Nothing changes on its own.
Ask what you're forgetting, or hit Suggest on your plans, checklist or packing list. The assistant answers using your actual itinerary: your days, your times, what's already on the list, and every idea comes back as a proposal with an Apply button. It has no ability to change your trip by itself.
Free for as long as you like.
No credit card required, and no trial countdown on the free tier. New accounts also get 30 days of Pro to try the sharing, importing and assistant features; when that ends you drop back to Free and keep everything you made.
An email address. We send a link to set your password, there's no form to fill in first.
Export your trips as PDFs and delete the account from your settings. Nothing is held hostage.
