v1.18.0
Latest Release
September 10, 2026

Free-Text Activity Times, and No More Invented Clock Times

Activity times are now free text instead of a fixed 6:00 AM–11:30 PM dropdown grid — you can type any time, write "Sunrise," or leave it as "Time TBD." Freeing the time field surfaced six places that had been quietly inventing a clock time whenever one wasn’t readable, the worst of them writing a fake 9 AM appointment into your real calendar; none of them invent a time anymore. Re-dating a trip now handles same-day, mid-trip, and multi-city cases it used to reject outright, and hitting the free plan’s city limit now leaves a persistent, honest notice on your trip instead of a red error that vanished with no record.

Untimed Activities Stopped Getting a Fake Clock Time Invented For Them
Re-Dating a Trip Now Works for the Cases That Actually Come Up

Feature

Type an Activity’s Time Instead of Picking From a Fixed Grid

Editing when an activity happens used to mean choosing from a dropdown of 30-minute slots running 6:00 AM to 11:30 PM, with no way to enter an earlier time, write something like "Sunrise," or leave it open. You can now type any time, or pick a preset from the same menu — including "Time TBD," "This morning," "This afternoon," "This evening," and an earlier 5:00 AM slot.

Fix

Untimed Activities Stopped Getting a Fake Clock Time Invented For Them

Making activity times free text (above) turned up six separate places that had been quietly inventing a time whenever one wasn’t readable — and the worst of them wrote a confident 9:00 AM appointment into your own calendar for an activity you’d left as "Sunrise" or "Time TBD," several stacking on top of each other with no warning. The same pattern let trip pace-trimming keep or cut a real activity based on a fabricated noon slot, sorted untimed activities as if scheduled for midnight instead of placing them at the end of the day, and hardcoded intercity transit to a fixed 8:00 AM instead of reading the real departure time already on file. None of them invent a time anymore — an activity left untimed now stays honestly untimed, and a calendar export renders it as an all-day event instead of a fake appointment.

Fix

Re-Dating a Trip Now Works for the Cases That Actually Come Up

Moving a trip’s dates rejected a same-day trip outright, rejected re-dating a trip already underway — the exact moment a delayed flight makes re-dating urgent — and capped every re-date at the same 30-day ceiling used for freshly generating a trip, so a legitimately hand-built 45-day trip could never be re-dated at all. All three are fixed: a trip may keep the length it already has (only growing past 30 days is refused), and re-dating a multi-city trip no longer scrambles which city’s days get trimmed to fit.

Fix

Hitting the Free Plan’s City Limit Used to Vanish Without a Trace

Typing three cities into a free-plan trip showed a red error toast that disappeared after about five seconds, and the trip you got afterward carried no record that a third city had ever been asked for. It’s now a plain, persistent notice on the trip itself naming what didn’t make the cut, with a way to sign up or see Pro plans to get it.

Fix

Added the Settle-Up Disclaimer /docs Was Missing

The support assistant’s reference material already stated that Travaio doesn’t track who paid for what or settle up between travelers, but that sentence had never actually been added to the /docs page itself — so anyone reading the docs directly never saw the limitation the assistant was already citing as fact.

v1.17.0
September 9, 2026

Multi-City Reaches the Planner, and Automatic Restore Points

Adding a city to a multi-city trip was broken at five points in a row — all fixed, and the reveal now names any city the planner had to drop. Big edits (reordering a day, removing several stops, changing the trip’s length) now take a restore point automatically instead of relying on a manual save nobody made, and fitting a trip around a booking now shows what it moved or dropped. Traveler DNA has one name across every screen, walking-load estimates finally read your mobility answer instead of only children’s ages, and a wave of naming and wording fixes stop the product contradicting itself between screens.

Cities You Added Were Never Reaching the Planner
Big Edits Now Take a Restore Point Automatically
A Booking Re-Fit Now Shows You What It Moved or Dropped
Traveler DNA Has One Name, Everywhere
Walking Load Now Reads Your Mobility Answer, Not Just Children’s Ages
Push Notifications Never Worked, for Anyone
Feature

Big Edits Now Take a Restore Point Automatically

Getting back to "how it was before" used to mean manually saving a named version in advance, on the chance you’d want it later — a step almost nobody took. The app now takes that snapshot for you right before a change that touches more than one activity at once: a day rebuilt, the days reordered, several stops removed, or the trip’s length changed, including reordering activities within a single day. Manually saved versions still exist for when you want to label one yourself, and no longer get pushed out of your version-history limit by a run of automatic ones.

Feature

A Booking Re-Fit Now Shows You What It Moved or Dropped

Adding a flight or hotel and fitting your itinerary around it can move activities and remove ones that now clash — and the summary meant to show you that had been built and tested but never once appeared on screen. It now shows up after every re-fit, on both the fresh-generation screen and a saved trip, and it’s built by comparing your trip before and after the change rather than trusting a running count that could fall out of sync with what actually happened.

Fix

Cities You Added Were Never Reaching the Planner

Adding an extra city to a multi-city trip was broken at five separate points in a row, and each one hid the next. Leaving step one of the quiz could fail outright with no explanation; past that, the dates you set for the added city were dropped before the request was sent, the city list the model actually used ignored the cities you’d added, and a city you marked "must include" reached the model as one the AI was free to skip. All five are fixed, and if the planner still has to drop a city, the trip you’re shown now says which one and why — instead of leaving you to notice a missing city on your own.

Fix

Push Notifications Never Worked, for Anyone

Every part of push notifications was built and configured correctly on the server, but the public key your browser needs to subscribe was missing from the app itself, so no subscription could ever be created. Nothing failed visibly — it just quietly never worked. It now does.

Fix

A Wheelchair Traveler’s Removed Stops Were Printed Under a Sales Pitch

When an activity is removed because it conflicts with a stated accessibility need, the card explaining that used to render below the "Unlock Pro features" banner at the reveal screen — so the one thing a traveler most needs to see was pushed underneath an upsell. It’s now shown first.

Fix

Day 3 of Your Own Trip Said You Had No Trips

Standing in the middle of a saved trip, the dashboard’s trips widget could show "No upcoming trips planned," because it only recognized trips that hadn’t started yet — while the mobile app correctly showed "Day 3 of 5" for the same trip. Both now agree on whether a trip is upcoming, happening now, or finished.

Fix

Your Saved Trip Was Missing the Guidance and Safety Notes Written For It

Nationality-tailored entry guidance (visas, entry rules) was generated for every trip but only ever shown once, on the just-generated reveal screen — reopening a saved trip replaced it with generic, untailored boilerplate. A note about a stop removed for an accessibility conflict had the same problem: written, saved, and never rendered anywhere on the saved-trip page. Both now show up wherever you actually read your trip, and the guidance says plainly whether it was written for your nationality or is generic reference material.

Fix

An Unverified Venue Wore an "AI Suggested" Badge

The badge meaning "nobody has confirmed this place actually exists" used the same sparkle icon this app uses to flag an AI-recommended highlight, so the one warning meant to make you pause read as a recommendation instead. It’s now a plain sentence stating the venue is unverified.

Fix

The Free Plan’s Version-History Slots Were Short By One

Version history counted your currently open trip against your saved-version limit, so a Free account saw two available slots instead of the three it’s entitled to.

UI & Experience

Traveler DNA Has One Name, Everywhere

The same concept was called "Traveler DNA," "travel DNA," "Travel DNA," "DNA," and "Profile DNA" depending which of five screens you were on — so completing it once could look like four separate unfinished features. It’s "Traveler DNA" on every screen now, including every toast, button, and export label that names it.

UI & Experience

Buttons Now Say What You’d Want, Not What They Do Internally

"New Itinerary" and "Adjust DNA" — both accurate about what happens behind the scenes — are now "Start over" and "Change preferences." The daily allowance is called "plans" consistently instead of "generations" in one place and "plans" in another, and the dashboard no longer lists everything your tier can’t do above your own trips — that comparison is still one click away, via Upgrade.

UI & Experience

"Bookings" No Longer Reads Like a Booking Desk

A panel titled "Bookings" that offered to "manage your reservations" contradicted Travaio’s own landing page, which says plainly that it doesn’t book travel. It now describes what it is — what you booked elsewhere, worked into the days around it — and applying a booking now names which ones are waiting and says upfront that it can move or remove activities.

UI & Experience

One Name for the Trip Check, and a Promise You Can Trust

The same feature answered to "Refine," "Itinerary Check," and "Check your edits" depending on the screen. It’s "Trip Check" everywhere now. Separately, all three ways to start a trip (quiz, manual, import) save your draft if you switch between them — but only the quiz ever said so, and only partway through. Every start screen now tells you your work is kept if you switch modes, worded for what it actually is: saved for this browser tab, not "on this device."

UI & Experience

Walking Load Now Reads Your Mobility Answer, Not Just Children’s Ages

The quiz asks about walking and pace, and the per-day walking estimate ignored the answer — it was judged only against children’s ages, so someone who told the quiz they needed a step-free, unhurried pace got a neutral estimate and no warning at all. It now reads your mobility answer too, and shows the day’s single longest walk next to the total, since one 30-minute stretch changes a day differently than eight short hops that add up to the same distance.

UI & Experience

Export Labels Now Name Where the File Goes

On a phone, every export label was hidden, leaving nine unlabeled icons — and because one paid format used a padlock instead of its own icon, four different paid formats all looked identical. Labels are always visible now and describe the destination rather than the format: Markdown becomes "Notes," Budget CSV becomes "Spreadsheet," Share Card becomes "Instagram card."

UI & Experience

The Activity Card Stopped Repeating Itself

A single activity card could show four different answers to "is this place open," state the same reservation note three times, and use the word "verified" for three unrelated meanings. Each card now carries one status badge and one reservation note.

UI & Experience

Badge Text Now Meets Contrast Requirements

Three of the four status-badge colors failed WCAG AA contrast in light mode. All three are corrected to the same hues at a legible shade.

UI & Experience

The Quiz Now Tells the Truth About Where Your Answers Live

The quiz said your answers were "saved on this device," which describes storage that’s actually scoped to the current browser tab — closing the tab loses it. The message now says "in this tab."

Fix

Removed a Promise Travaio Doesn’t Keep

The docs and the support assistant’s reference material both said Travaio could split trip costs across a group and track who owes what. It can show what a trip costs per person, but it doesn’t track who paid for what and can’t settle up between travelers — that’s a different product. Both were corrected to say so plainly.

v1.16.0
September 6, 2026

Collaboration Actually Works, and Trips Know Where They Are

Collaboration — Pro’s flagship feature — is fixed end to end: the roster loads, votes land, presence shows, and comments appear live for everyone on the trip instead of only whoever wrote them. The app now knows whether a trip is upcoming, in progress, or finished, opens a trip you’re currently on to today’s day, and lets you rank what’s open near you right now at no cost in generations or swaps. Mobile stopped inventing the weather, the trip checker’s one-click fixes can no longer invent or delete activities, and your dietary and accessibility answers are no longer deleted every time a saved trip loads.

Collaboration Did Not Work at All

Feature

Travaio Knows When You Are On a Trip

The app now distinguishes a trip that is upcoming, in progress, or finished. A trip you are currently on opens on today’s day instead of day one, on both web and mobile.

Feature

What’s Open Near Me Now

While you’re on a trip you can rank the rest of today’s plan by distance from where you’re standing, and see nearby alternatives you can swap in or add. It uses no generation allowance and no swap credit.

Feature

Trip Checks for Imported and Hand-Built Trips

The trip checker was locked behind "make an edit first", which meant the trips it exists for — imported and hand-built ones — could never reach it. It now unlocks based on where the trip came from, and still never runs itself on a freshly generated AI trip.

Feature

See What Your Ratings Taught Us

A card on the dashboard now shows what your thumbs-up and thumbs-down have actually taught Travaio about what to include and what to drop from future trips.

Feature

Support Answers Come From the Docs

The support assistant now answers product questions from Travaio’s own published documentation, with a link to the section it used, instead of from the model’s memory. When it finds nothing relevant it says so rather than guessing.

Feature

Post-Trip Journal Prompts Now Arrive

The prompt to journal a trip you have just finished was built and never invoked, so nobody had ever received one. It now fires — and no longer asks you to journal a trip you already journalled.

Fix

Your Dietary and Accessibility Needs Were Being Deleted

Every time a saved trip was loaded, the app rebuilt your answers from a fixed list of fields and destroyed everything not on it — dietary restrictions, accessibility needs, mobility level, party members, and your stated no-gos and must-haves. The trip checker then reported that no dietary restrictions or accessibility needs had been stated, to someone who had ticked nut-free. Regenerating a single day also skipped the dietary and accessibility checks entirely; it no longer does.

Fix

The Mobile App Was Inventing the Weather

Weather on the mobile trip screen was generated from the destination name rather than fetched, and rendered beside a warning triangle as though it were real advice. The app now shows real forecast data or nothing at all. (Forecasts are a Pro feature, so free accounts now see no weather rather than a convincing fake one.)

Fix

A Missing Temperature Read as 0°C

An unreported daily high or low was substituted with zero — a freezing day. One missing reading was enough to put "Winter jacket and warm layers recommended" on a summer packing list. Missing readings are now shown as missing, and are kept out of the planning prompt entirely.

Fix

The Trip Checker’s One-Click Fix Could Invent and Delete Activities

Applying a suggested fix could write placeholder restaurants that do not exist into your saved trip, and could remove activities you had chosen, with nothing saying so. A fix that removes something now names each activity and asks first; a day that merely looks light is reported without an Apply button.

Fix

Collaboration Did Not Work at All

The collaborator list failed to load for every user on every trip, so voting, presence, and the shared-trip experience never appeared; every vote failed; and an emailed invite could render on a page with no trip on it. All of it works now, and comments appear live for everyone on the trip rather than only for whoever wrote them.

Fix

You Are Told When a Shared Trip Changes

A collaborator’s committed save now sends a notification, instead of a three-second toast only whoever happened to be looking would ever see. Repeats are collapsed so catching up costs you one notice, not ten.

Fix

The AI Could Not Add an Activity to an Empty Day

"Build manually, let AI help" failed on any day with nothing on it — which is every day of a hand-built trip — while the empty day invited exactly that.

Fix

Using the Free-Text Description Mid-Quiz Erased Your Answers

Describing your trip in plain English partway through the quiz threw away every answer already given, then returned you to the step you had reached with the earlier steps blank, under a banner saying your details had been pre-filled.

Fix

Read Mode Left Destructive Buttons Live

Read is the default view mode, and "New Itinerary" — which replaces every activity in the trip — stayed fully active in it with no confirmation. It now asks first, and says the previous version can be restored.

Fix

Search Failures Say What Actually Went Wrong

Adding or swapping an activity replaced the real message — "No activities found for that request. Try more specific or different keywords." — with a generic "please try again", which is the one thing guaranteed not to work.

Fix

Adjusting Your Quiz Answers From a Saved Trip

The "Adjust DNA" control existed on the saved-trip page but was never connected, so a saved trip could not get back to the quiz at all.

Fix

Inviting Someone Without an Account

The duplicate-collaborator check waved through every invitee who had not signed up yet, because the check it ran could never produce an answer for them.

UI & Experience

Three Ways to Start a Trip, One Name Each

Plan with AI, Build it yourself, and Import an itinerary now have one name apiece, appear in the header and on the empty-trips screen, and cross-link to one another. Two of the three previously sat behind an unlabelled arrow, manual mode answered to four different names, and neither alternative was reachable at all from the dashboard.

UI & Experience

A Way Out of the Quiz

The guest quiz had no exit control on its first step — the exact step someone is on when they change their mind. Leaving is now possible from every step, and your answers are kept for when you come back.

UI & Experience

The Quiz Says How Long It Is

Nine steps were described as "a few quick questions", and the two quiz lengths were labelled without their question counts. Both now state how many questions they ask and roughly how long they take, and the six city shortcuts no longer read as something lesser than the quiz they actually start.

UI & Experience

An Example of the Product on a Phone

The landing page’s sample itinerary was desktop-only, leaving phone visitors a headline, a sentence, and a button.

Intelligence

What We Checked, and What We Could Not

Activity cards now show the dietary, book-ahead, and step-free checks Travaio already performs — in four distinct states, so "we checked and it’s fine" never renders the same as "there was nothing to check". Previously none of them were shown at all, while a guessed dinner price was hedged.

Intelligence

Safety Notes No Longer Get Crowded Out

A note about an activity removed for accessibility reasons shared a slot limit with ordinary preference chatter and could be truncated away under a heading calling it a preference we couldn’t match. Safety notes now have their own place, listed first.

Intelligence

Paid Tiers Had Weaker Accessibility Handling Than Guests

The accessibility and elderly-traveler pacing signals were written only by the guest quiz form, so signed-in and Pro travelers lost the gentler cadence and reduced day density. They are now derived from your stated needs whichever quiz you filled in.

Intelligence

Swapping and Adding Now Respect Accessibility

Swap and add read only free-text must-haves and never the structured accessibility and mobility answers the quiz collects, so a wheelchair user got replacements chosen with no accessibility input at all — on the one screen where they were actively fixing a problem.

Intelligence

An Unverified Restriction Is Reported as Unverified

Nut-free, gluten-free, and dairy-free cannot be confirmed from venue listings. Your trip now says so plainly, instead of staying silent in a way that read identically to having checked and found nothing wrong.

v1.15.0
August 29, 2026

Security Hardening, Trip Archiving, and a Continuous Trip View

A major reliability and security release: two-factor authentication now actually gates sign-in instead of racing a redirect, entitlements are enforced in the database as well as in the app, and nine ways a paid capability could be reached directly are closed. Saved trips render as one continuous, printable document with archiving, a "Today" badge, and a support assistant that answers from your real trip data and admits when it can’t check something. Dozens of fixes correct trip dates, billing portal access for Pro customers, collaborator save conflicts, and a bug that silently ignored Free and Pro travelers’ stated budget and party size.

Read the Whole Trip at Once
Two-Factor Authentication Now Gates Sign-In
Paid Capabilities Are Enforced in the Database
Archive Trips Instead of Deleting Them
Billing Portal, Cancel and Resume Fixed for Pro Customers
Free and Pro Trips Were Ignoring Your Budget and Party
Feature

Read the Whole Trip at Once

A saved trip now renders as one scrollable document instead of one day at a time, so you can see the shape of the trip, search across it with your browser, and print it. Day-by-day is still one tap away and is remembered per trip.

Feature

Archive Trips Instead of Deleting Them

My Trips now has an Active/Archived toggle, with archive and unarchive on every trip. Archived trips no longer count against your saved-trip limit, so archiving genuinely makes room the way the docs always promised.

Feature

Know Which Day Is Today

Days now carry a "Today" badge and a relative label ("In 3 days", "2 days ago"), with a "Jump to today" button when today falls inside the trip.

Feature

A Support Assistant That Cites Its Sources

The in-app support panel can now answer using your real account facts and a deterministic check of your trip, propose an action you confirm yourself, and hand you to a person when it cannot answer. It never claims to have done something it did not do, and "we couldn’t check that" is shown as its own answer rather than as an all-clear.

Feature

Recovery Codes for Two-Factor Sign-In

Setting up two-factor authentication now issues ten single-use recovery codes, so losing your authenticator is no longer a permanent lockout. Signing in with a recovery code gets you back into your account; it does not itself count as a completed second factor.

Feature

Read Mode for Itineraries

Itineraries now open in a read mode that removes every editing control, with a one-click switch to edit. Reading a trip on a phone no longer means reading around a row of buttons.

Feature

The Map on Mobile Shows the Whole Day

The trip map on a phone is now a persistent map behind a draggable sheet listing the day’s stops, instead of a full-screen overlay that opened one pin at a time.

Feature

Printable Itineraries

Printing a trip now produces a clean document — no floating buttons, no marketing footer, and activities no longer split across page breaks.

Feature

Trip Health at a Glance

The trip checker’s status now appears beside your trip’s destination from any tab rather than only inside More → Refine, and a finding with no mechanical fix can be handed to the AI to fix.

Feature

The Pricing Page Is Reachable

It existed and could only be opened by typing its URL. It is now linked from the site footer.

Fix

Blank Answers No Longer Produce an Empty Trip

Leaving dietary needs — or several other quiz fields — unselected could make generation return an itinerary with no days at all, reported as a success. Every field is now handled properly at the request boundary, and a generation that produces nothing is reported as a failure.

Fix

A Partly-Failed City No Longer Loses the Days It Made

When one city could not fill every day, it discarded every day it had already produced. It now keeps them and re-requests only what is missing.

Fix

A Failed Generation No Longer Costs You a Generation

A timeout or model failure used to spend one of your daily generations having delivered nothing. The allowance is now spent only when a trip is actually produced.

Fix

Signed-In Users Could Not Open Their Own Account Pages

Dashboard, Account, Settings and Profile redirected to the sign-in page for genuinely signed-in users, while the header still showed them signed in.

Fix

Two-Factor Authentication Now Gates Sign-In

A password alone could complete sign-in on an account with a verified authenticator app.

Fix

A Failed Load No Longer Reads as an Empty Account

The dashboard, the account Trips tab, the discovery feed, the collaboration panel, the support panel and the shared-trip page each rendered a failed request as "you have none" — "No trips yet", "No destinations found", "No support tickets yet". Every one now says the load failed and offers a retry.

Fix

Unsaved Work No Longer Reports Itself as Saved

Regenerating one leg of a trip was never written to the database while the app said "Saved"; a rejected save could also end on a "Saved" indicator; and a failed regeneration left the new trip on screen under a "Regeneration failed" toast. All three now tell you the truth and undo what was not kept.

Fix

US and Western Travelers Saw Trip Dates a Day Early

Trip dates on the dashboard and in the exported PDF rendered one day early at any negative UTC offset — including the weekday printed on each PDF day header.

Fix

Opening Hours Were Checked Against the Wrong Day

Every activity’s opening hours were validated against day one’s weekday, so a venue open on the day you were actually visiting could be reported closed — and the new time you set was silently discarded.

Fix

Trip Reminders Now Fire

Trip reminder pushes queried a trip date field that is empty on every trip, so no reminder had ever been sent to anyone. They also no longer claim an hour of day the trip never specified.

Fix

Push Notifications Reached No One

Support replies and collaboration responses wrote an in-app notification but never delivered the device push meant to accompany it.

Fix

Billing Portal, Cancel and Resume Fixed for Pro Customers

Six billing screens read subscription data with a client that could not see it, so a paying customer could not open the billing portal and cancel/resume refused their own subscription.

Fix

Deleting Your Account Told You It Had Failed

Account deletion completed in full and then returned "Account deletion failed. Please contact support." The confirmation email and the success record were never written. Deletion now reports what actually happened, removes the sign-in record itself rather than leaving it behind, and cancels a Pro subscription with Stripe — which it never did, so billing continued indefinitely.

Fix

Four Country Guides Returned an Error

The Singapore, United Kingdom, United States and Australia travel guides returned a server error instead of the guide.

Fix

Restoring an Earlier Version Silently Did Nothing

Revert in version history closed its dialog and changed nothing when refused — which was every time for a collaborator, since only the owner can restore. It now says why.

Fix

Guests Could Only Ever Hold One Trip

Every guest trip overwrote the one before it, so a guest with three daily generations kept exactly one. Signing up could also save the same trip twice, spending two of a free account’s three slots on a single trip.

Fix

Placeholder Activities Showed an Invented Name

A filler stop matched to a real venue kept its made-up name and address while showing that real venue’s photos, hours and map pin. It now takes the name of the place it actually resolved to.

Fix

Mobile: Generated Trips Were Discarded

On the mobile app a finished trip was never saved and you were routed to a list it had never been in — after minutes of generation. Regenerating a trip had also never worked once, and long trips that arrive in pieces were thrown away at 100%.

Fix

Collaborator Edits Are No Longer Silently Overwritten

Changing trip dates, editing an activity’s cost, syncing an edit made offline, and saving from the mobile app could each overwrite what another collaborator had saved, with no conflict raised and nothing in the UI. Edits between two people are also now ordered consistently instead of by each machine’s own clock.

Fix

Your Own Save No Longer Reads as a Collaborator’s

Saving a shared trip toasted "Trip updated by a collaborator" at the person who made the change, and a change that lost a conflict disappeared with no explanation.

Fix

Notifications Go Somewhere, and Stay Read

Collaboration accepted/declined notices were clickable and led nowhere, a trip notification landed on the dashboard rather than the trip, and marking notifications read could fail silently so they came back unread.

Fix

The Logo No Longer Destroys a Generation

Clicking the logo mid-generation aborted it and reset to the landing page with no confirmation, toast or undo.

Fix

Back From a Trip Returns Where You Came From

Back went to the marketing landing page, discarding your dashboard search, sort and page.

Fix

The Trip Checker Said You Had Stated No Exclusions

Your typed exclusions ("no museums") were saved somewhere the checker never read, so it told you none had been stated — and counted the check as passed.

Fix

Closing the Tab During the Undo Window

Every destructive edit waits five seconds before saving; closing the tab in that window discarded the change with no warning at all.

Fix

A Disabled Share Link Has Somewhere to Go

Opening a share link the owner had turned off produced a page with no action of any kind.

UI & Experience

The Dashboard Now Looks Like the Rest of Travaio

Trip cards, widgets, empty states and typography were rebuilt on the app’s own design language, and the widget row now gives Upcoming Trips the space it deserves.

UI & Experience

The Dashboard Navigation Was Invisible in Light Mode

Its bar used a style rule that does not exist, so on the light and beach themes it rendered white on white — one tap of the theme toggle erased the dashboard’s navigation and its search.

UI & Experience

Overlays No Longer Open Underneath the Header

The mobile activity overlay — whose only exit sat behind the header — plus the dashboard search, the skip link and the onboarding tour all rendered below the site header.

UI & Experience

Banners Stopped Covering the Trip

The partial-generation banner permanently occluded the top of the day list, the cookie banner covered the quiz’s Continue button, and shared-trip day headings pinned themselves out of sight behind the header.

UI & Experience

Everything Is Tappable

Dozens of controls below the 44px minimum were raised — including the dashboard widget actions, which never appeared at all on a touch device.

UI & Experience

Contrast and Keyboard Access

Three theme colours failing the AA contrast floor were corrected, including the one used for every keyboard focus state, and profile-picture upload, notification rows and trip cards became keyboard-reachable.

UI & Experience

The Date Reads as a Date

The day header stacked the day number, weekday, timing and date as four identical small pills. The date is now the largest thing on the header, and activity descriptions are set at a readable prose size.

UI & Experience

The Report a Bug Pill Left the Marketing Pages

It floated over the landing page and over every public template and travel guide.

UI & Experience

Template Days Show Their Shape Honestly

Template days are now grouped into morning / midday / afternoon / evening where the text supports it, and left as a plain ordered list where it does not — rather than inventing clock times nobody promised.

UI & Experience

Landing Page and Empty States Sound Like Travaio

Stock brochure copy and generic empty-state filler were replaced with claims about how the product actually works, and the landing search placeholder now settles instead of cycling forever under your cursor.

Intelligence

Free and Pro Trips Were Ignoring Your Budget and Party

Budget, travelers, children’s ages and occasion were read from a place the app never writes for signed-in users, so every Free and Pro generation ran on "mid-range" and "solo". A family of four with a toddler on a luxury budget received a solo mid-range itinerary with adult pacing.

Intelligence

Interests Are Judged by What a Place Is, Not by English Words

Interest coverage matched activity names against an English keyword list, so a Lisbon trip full of pastelarias and tabernas was told nothing in the plan matched Food. It now reads real place categories, with keywords only as a fallback. Two of the twelve interests had no keywords at all and were reported uncovered on every trip.

Intelligence

An Uncovered Interest Is Reported, Not Papered Over

When an interest you love had no match, the plan invented a placeholder activity at a made-up address. It now tells you plainly which interest it could not cover — and that note is now visible to guests, who could never reach it before.

Intelligence

Dietary and Accessibility Needs Are Checked, Not Just Requested

Your structured dietary, accessibility and mobility answers are now verified against the finished trip. Accessibility can remove an activity on real evidence and — just as importantly — keeps a step-free venue that a keyword would have deleted. Dietary needs are only ever flagged, never guessed at, and a restriction nothing can verify is reported as unchecked rather than counted clean.

Intelligence

Safety Ticks on the Cuisine Step Now Count

Ticking Halal, Vegan or Allergy-Safe on the cuisine step reached the plan as text with nothing verifying it, while the identical answer on the dietary step was checked.

Intelligence

One Failed Check No Longer Voids the Rest

A single failing enforcement pass skipped every later one, kept the activity removals it had already made, and dropped the explanations for them.

Intelligence

Pro Gets What Pro Is Promised

Insider tips, local secrets and photogenic ratings are declared mandatory Pro output and were never verified. They are now checked, and a shortfall is reported rather than invented.

Intelligence

One Blank Answer, One Trip

Four parts of the app each invented their own default for a blank pace or party size, so the itinerary, the packing list and the on-screen summary could describe three different travelers.

Security

Paid Capabilities Are Enforced in the Database

Tier entitlements are now enforced at the database layer as well as in the app, closing nine ways a paid capability or a durable counter could be reached directly — including collaboration, the flagship Pro feature.

Security

Rate Limits That Silently Collapsed

Several limits declared per hour or per day were being enforced per minute, including collaboration invitations (which send email) and account deletion. Each now runs on its own correct window.

Security

Costly Actions Gained Real Daily Ceilings

Regenerating a day runs the full generation pipeline but was metered as a cheap swap; day regeneration, link import and support conversations now carry durable daily ceilings. Pro’s advertised unlimited swaps and adds are genuinely unlimited again — they had been capped at 60 a day despite the promise.

Security

Client-Supplied Values No Longer Decide Paid Limits

Saving a trip and regenerating a packing list each took a flag from the request that decided whether a paid limit applied.

Security

Raw IP Addresses No Longer Leave the App

Rate-limiting keys now store a salted hash rather than the visitor’s address. As a result, every guest’s daily generation counter reset once on this release.

Security

View-Only Collaborators Cannot Trigger Paid Work

Booking recommendations checked only that you were on the trip, not that you had edit access.

Security

A Scheduled Endpoint That Ran Without Its Secret

The trip-reminder endpoint skipped authentication entirely when its secret was unset, instead of refusing to run.

Security

Consent Changes Are Now Recorded

The consent history the app had always written to had nowhere to go, so no consent change had ever been stored.

Security

Your Data Export Contains What It Claims

The GDPR export named bookings, collaborations and analytics in its compliance record while including none of them, and omitted journal entries, comments, collections, notification preferences and DNA backups outright. What the record claims is now derived from what the download actually contains.

Security

Free Trials Are Once Per Account

Trial length was already fixed, but nothing stopped subscribe-cancel-repeat from granting a new trial each time.

Reliable Undo and Guest Trip Safety

A reliability-focused release: every trip edit now undoes itself cleanly if it fails to save, natural-language edits can be undone one at a time instead of just the most recent, and guest trips migrate correctly at sign-up even across devices.

Consistent Undo on Save Failure
Multi-Step AI Edit Undo
Guest Trip Migration Reliability

Cost Panel Crash Fix
Fix

Consistent Undo on Save Failure

When any trip edit fails to save — reordering, deleting, swapping, locking, changing a time, editing a booking, and more — the app now undoes the change and tells you plainly it was not saved, instead of an inconsistent mix of behaviors across different actions.

Intelligence

Multi-Step Undo for AI Edits

Natural-language edits can now be undone one instruction at a time. Previously, accepting a new edit made the one before it impossible to undo.

Fix

Edit Conflict Protection

Applying a suggested fix from Refine no longer silently overwrites an AI edit you just accepted for the same day — the app now detects the conflict and explains it instead.

Fix

Guest Trip Migration Reliability

Trips you started as a guest now migrate reliably when you sign up, including when you confirm your email on a different device than the one you planned on.

Fix

Quiz Resume No Longer Deletes Answers

Resuming the quiz where you left off now actually restores your answers instead of clearing them.

Fix

Share Link History Preserved on Rotate

Regenerating a share link now keeps its view count and access history instead of resetting them.

Fix

In-Place Collaboration Upgrade Prompt

Hitting the Pro wall while trying to collaborate now opens an upgrade dialog in place instead of navigating you away from your itinerary.

Fix

Date-Change Button Race Fix

View-only collaborators no longer briefly see a clickable change-dates button that would silently fail.

Fix

Cost Panel Crash Fix

Fixed a bug where certain trips would crash the budget tracker and cost breakdown panels.

Fix

Guest Generation Limits

Guest daily generation limits are now enforced consistently.

v1.13.0
August 13, 2026

Natural-Language Editing and Manual Trip Building

Pro users can now edit a trip with a plain-English instruction and review the diff before accepting it. Everyone gets a manual day-by-day trip builder, a paste-and-import option for itineraries you already have, and free-text trip entry — previously guest-only — now works for signed-in users too. Plus share-link privacy hardening, country travel guides, and Singapore Dollar pricing.

Natural-Language Itinerary Editing

Type a plain-English instruction like "make day 3 more relaxed" and review one reviewable diff per affected day before accepting it. Lives under the itinerary’s Refine tab (renamed from Check).

Feature

Itinerary Check Findings Are Now Actionable

Refine’s quality check (pacing, opening hours, budget, duplicates, night safety) now lets you apply or undo each finding individually, and results stay visible when you switch tabs and come back.

Feature

Manual Trip Builder

Build a trip day-by-day by hand instead of generating one with AI. Never invents times or fills in days you have not touched yourself.

Feature

Paste & Import Itineraries

Paste an itinerary you already have — from a chat, a blog, a bullet list — and Travaio turns it into an editable draft you review before saving. Anything unclear is flagged inline, never silently dropped or invented.

Feature

Free-Text Trip Entry for Everyone

Describing your trip in plain English instead of using the quiz is now available to signed-in users too, shown as an equally prominent option next to the quiz.

Feature

Unlimited Swaps and Adds on Free Tier

Free-tier swap and add edits are no longer capped per trip.

Feature

Country Travel Guides

Added 42 destination guides covering visas, currency, tipping, plugs and voltage, etiquette, and transit passes, cross-linked from matching itinerary templates.

Security

Share and Invite Link Privacy

Share and invite links no longer leak their access token to analytics when opened, and session recordings of shared pages no longer capture itinerary content. New share links now expire after 30 days by default.

Feature

Regenerate a Share Link

You can now regenerate a share link’s token from the share dialog, invalidating the old URL while keeping its settings, with a view counter showing how many times it has been opened.

UI & Experience

Redesigned Trip Map

The map now reads as a transit guide instead of a generic map clone, with tappable day markers, solid route lines, and a redesigned legend.

Feature

Singapore Dollar Pricing

Pro pricing now displays and charges in SGD for Singapore-based users, resolved automatically at checkout.

Fix

Consistent Pro Pricing Everywhere Shown

Fixed a billing-flow bug where two screens could show two different annual prices for Pro. Pricing is now computed from one source everywhere it appears.

v1.12.1
August 7, 2026

Stability and Accessibility Sweep

A wide fix pass: bookings for every transport type now save correctly, two-factor authentication setup works reliably, currency detection is fixed for several cities, and dialogs, forms, and controls across the app are now properly labeled for screen readers.

Booking Creation Fixed for All Types

You can now create Flight, Train, Bus, Car, Ship, Bike, Wellness, and Business bookings — Create Booking previously only worked for Accommodation.

Security

Two-Factor Authentication Setup Fixed

TOTP setup now works reliably: codes submit against the right enrollment, and you can return to your QR code if you navigate away mid-setup.

Fix

Add/Swap Activity Search Fixed

Add and Swap Activity now reliably shows results instead of occasionally wiping out search results you had already found.

Fix

Currency Detection Fixes

Jerusalem, Busan, Fukuoka, cities in Ukraine, and Perugia now show the correct local currency instead of an incorrect one from a matching bug.

Fix

Time and Flight Input Fixes

Time pickers and flight-arrival fields no longer show garbled placeholder text on malformed input.

Intelligence

More Accurate Verification Labels

Your itinerary is no longer marked "verified, no problems" when opening-hours verification could not actually reach Google Places, and venues with hard-to-parse hours are no longer wrongly flagged as closed.

UI & Experience

Screen Reader Improvements App-Wide

Dialog descriptions, form fields, dropdown selectors, progress indicators, and carousels are now properly labeled and announced for screen readers across the app.

Fix

Session Refresh Leak After Sign-Out

Fixed a background timer that kept trying to refresh your session every 30 minutes after you signed out.

v1.12.0
August 6, 2026

Smarter, More Honest AI Planning

Itineraries now account for cumulative fatigue across days, verify claims about reservations and dietary options against real venue data, and use live currency exchange rates. Regenerating a single day preserves what you already locked in, and activity cards now show why a suggestion was picked for you.

Verified Trip Claims

Claims about reservations, timed entry, or dietary options are now checked against real venue data; anything that cannot be verified is flagged as such instead of stated as fact.

Intelligence

Smarter Trip Pacing Across Days

Planning now accounts for cumulative fatigue: overloaded days get lightened, with a guaranteed easier day after a long-travel or red-eye day.

Intelligence

Must-Haves and No-Gos Now Enforced

Stated exclusions are now actively excluded rather than treated as a soft hint, and must-haves carry more weight in generation.

Fix

Live Currency Exchange Rates

Budget estimates now use live exchange rates instead of a fixed table, and a stale rate is surfaced to you rather than hidden.

Feature

Destination Know-Before-You-Go Info

Trips now include local etiquette, common scams, transit-pass cost guidance, and useful phrases, covering 42 countries.

Intelligence

Crowd-Aware Visit Timing

Suggests better visit windows for major attractions based on real hours, venue type, day of week, and holidays, worded as an estimate rather than a guarantee.

Group Trip Planning

Trips for a mixed group now use the strictest dietary, accessibility, and mobility needs across the group, with optional split-and-regroup days.

Thumbs-Down Feedback Now Works

Categories you thumb down repeatedly are now genuinely suppressed from future trips, and remain reversible.

Dietary, Accessibility, and Trip Collections

You can now specify dietary, accessibility, and mobility needs and have them actually honored in generation. Organize saved trips into collections, manage collaborators from one panel, lock individual days or activities before regenerating a trip, and give thumbs feedback that shapes future itineraries. Plus several account-security fixes.

Dietary, Accessibility & Mobility Preferences

You can now specify dietary restrictions, accessibility needs, and mobility level, and generation actually honors them — including combined requirements like Kosher plus another dietary tag.

Feature

Trip Collections

Organize your saved trips into named collections from the dashboard, and filter or add trips to one or more collections.

Feature

Collaboration Management Panel

Pro users can now manage a trip’s collaborator roster, permissions, and live presence from one panel on the dashboard.

Feature

Lock Days and Activities, Regenerate One Day at a Time

Lock individual days or activities to keep them as-is, and regenerate a single day instead of only a whole trip or leg.

Intelligence

Thumbs Feedback Shapes Future Trips

Thumbs-up and thumbs-down on activities now influence future generations without overriding your explicit interests or hard constraints.

UI & Experience

Redesigned Interest Selection

The interest picker is now tap-to-love, tap-to-exclude, or star-for-must-have, with untouched interests treated as neutral rather than avoided.

Feature

Working Trip Search Filters

Trip search now has filters for rating, cost, and category that actually narrow results and combine with text search.

Security

Rate-Limit Bypass Closed

Closed a header-spoofing bypass that let requests dodge rate limits on metered endpoints, including AI generation.

Account Privilege Escalation Closed

Closed a bug that let a signed-in user grant themselves Pro access without paying, and a separate bug that let a user grant themselves edit access to another user’s trip.

Costs and operating hours are now labeled as verified only when actually confirmed against real place data, and shown as an estimate otherwise.

Feature

Verified-Places Count

Your trip summary now shows how many places in the itinerary were verified against real place data, out of the total.

Feature

Explain Why You’re Swapping

Swapping an activity now lets you add a quick reason, so the replacement avoids the same trait.

Audit Fixes, Guest Bug Reports, Spatial Scroll

A full audit pass: header nav items are now icon-only with tooltips, charts and maps use brand teal instead of hardcoded hexes, guests can attach screenshots to bug reports, bug-only submissions work via the deep-link, and the landing page gets hero text reveals, step entrance animations, and bento image parallax for a more spatial scroll experience.

Spatial Scroll Animations

The landing page gains a clip-path hero text reveal, per-step entrance animations for the How It Works timeline, bento image parallax, and heading parallax on the closing CTA. All CSS scroll-driven, all reduced-motion aware.

Feature

Guest Bug Screenshots

Guests can now attach screenshots to bug reports. The upload API accepts a client-generated guest ID with IP-based rate limiting, and the screenshot is stored with a 24-hour signed URL.

Fix

Bug-Only Submission

When arriving via the Report a Bug button, the feedback form now accepts just the Bugs section without requiring sections 1 and 2 to be filled.

Fix

Bug Screenshot Path Storage

The screenshot file path was collected in the form but never written to the database. Added the bug_screenshot_path column to the feedback table and wired it through the schema and service.

UI & Experience

Brand-Aligned Chart and Map Colors

BudgetTracker, CostBreakdownPanel, MapPanel, and MultiCityRouteMap now use brand teal and CSS variables instead of hardcoded hexes. Profile DNA export uses a brand teal-to-coral gradient instead of the generic AI-purple.

Fix

Result View Redirect Fix

Moved the Result-to-Landing redirect from a render-time side effect into a useEffect, fixing a React anti-pattern that could cause infinite re-render loops.

Error Page Shows Error ID

The error page now displays the error digest so users can reference it when reporting bugs.

Scroll Progress Bar

A thin teal line at the top of the landing fills as you scroll, giving a sense of how much content remains. Uses CSS scroll-driven animations that bind to the nested scroll container automatically.

Hero Parallax Depth

The hero background image now moves at a slower rate than the foreground text, creating spatial separation. The text also drifts upward slightly as the hero exits the viewport.

UI & Experience

Timeline Progress Rail

The How It Works vertical line now fills from top to bottom as you scroll through the steps, replacing the static gradient with a scroll-driven teal-to-accent progress indicator.

UI & Experience

CTA Background Parallax

The closing call-to-action band gradient drifts slightly as you scroll past, adding a final layer of spatial motion to the page.

SEO & LLM Discovery

Added a dynamic Open Graph image, llms.txt for AI model discovery, WebApplication structured data, hreflang signals, and keyword metadata. Sitemap dates are now fixed instead of always showing today.

Feature

Trip Brief Parser

Paste a natural-language trip description and the AI extracts your destination, dates, travel style, and budget to pre-fill the quiz. The quiz stays editable — the parser just gives you a head start.

Feature

Itinerary Import API

A validation endpoint accepts structured itinerary JSON, checks the schema, and returns the reconstructed itinerary for saving to your account.

Fix

Onboarding Tour Scroll Lock

The welcome tour dialog now locks page scroll on both the window and the nested scroll container, so it stays centered instead of drifting when you scroll.

Fix

Honest Landing Copy

The hero itinerary preview now says "Sample itinerary" instead of "AI-personalized for you" on hardcoded demo data.

Fix

Hero Element Discipline

The free-plans-remaining counter moved from the hero into the trust strip below, keeping the hero to four clean elements.

Fix

Off-Screen Animation Pause

The hero itinerary preview pauses its auto-rotation when scrolled out of view, reducing unnecessary background work.
