Account & security

Account Settings

What you can change on the Account Settings page — your name, home location, travel preferences, appearance, connected sign-ins, daily digest email, forwarding address, and deleting your account.

Account Settings is where your details that aren't tied to any one trip live. Most changes save the moment you make them.

To get there, open the account menu in the header and choose Account Settings.

On iPhone: tap the More button in the bottom bar, then Your account.

Name and home location

The first card shows the email address on your account and two fields:

  • Name — type a new name and tap Save. This is what other people see on shared trips.
  • Home location — search for your home city and pick it. Plannery treats this as where your trips start and end, and uses it to reserve travel days. Clearing it leaves the field empty.

Your email address can't be changed here.

Travel preferences

These are your defaults for new trips. When you create a trip, its questions start with these answers filled in. Changing them here never changes a trip you've already made, and changing an answer inside a trip never changes these.

  • What matters most — up to five interests. Tap Add interest to add one, or the X on a chip to remove it.
  • Budget level — one of the four budget bands. Tap Choose a budget level to set it.
  • Where you like to stay — tap Add stay type.
  • How you get around — tap Add transport.
  • Countries you're interested in — tap Add country. This only affects which guides Plannery shows you first on the home page.

Appearance

Pick one of three: match your System setting, or always use Light or Dark. The control is a row of three icons — a monitor, a sun, and a moon.

Connected accounts

Add a second way to sign in so you can always get back into this account. Next to Google and Apple, tap Connect and confirm with that provider. Once linked, the row reads Connected.

If you see a message that the account is already connected to a different Plannery account, sign in with that other account instead, or connect a different Google or Apple account here.

Daily digest emails

Turn Daily digest emails on or off. When it's on and a trip is under way, you get a morning email with that day's schedule and weather.

Forward bookings by email

Every account has its own forwarding address. Send any confirmation email to it and the booking turns up in Plannery, ready to add to a trip. It works from any email account — what matters is the address you send to, not the address you send from.

  • Tap the address to copy it.
  • To replace it, tap Create a new address, then confirm with Create new address. The old address stops working immediately, and any mail rule or contact you've saved with it will stop forwarding without warning.

For how forwarded bookings reach your trips, see the article on forwarding bookings.

Delete account

At the bottom of the page, Delete account takes you to a confirmation page. Deleting your account permanently removes your account, your trips, and everything in them. It cannot be undone.

If you own a trip that other people are on, you have to decide what happens to it first. For each such trip, choose one:

  • Make [name] the owner — hand the trip to one of the other people on it. They keep everything.
  • Delete this trip for everyone — the trip disappears for the other people too.

Then tick I understand this permanently deletes my account and cannot be undone and tap Delete my account. You're signed out and returned to the sign-in page.

Trips you're on but don't own carry on for the people who own them.
