The Explore tab
Browse your trip's saved places and destination guides on one map, filter by city or type, sort by what's nearest, and pull the sheet down to see more map.
Explore is where you find places to add to the trip you're planning. It shows your party's Want to go shortlist, the places already scheduled as Going, and the guides for the trip's cities — all on one map, with a list sheet you can drag up and down over it.
Opening Explore
On a phone, tap Explore in the bottom bar. On the web, choose Explore from the trip's views. The map fills the screen; the list sits in a sheet at the bottom, and a pill of two segments floats at the top: Places and Guides.
The sheet and the map
The sheet rests at three heights: a low peek that leaves the map almost clear, a middle position, and nearly full height.
- Drag the grab handle at the top of the sheet to move it. On Places you can also drag the filter row beneath the handle — a vertical swipe moves the sheet, a sideways swipe scrolls the chips, and a tap still picks a filter.
- Tap the handle to step to the next height.
- Pull the sheet all the way down for a full-screen map. On a phone the bottom bar tucks away too.
Tapping a pin opens the same place sheet as tapping its card. The two halves always agree about what's selected.
On the web, a Map settings button in the map's top-left corner switches to the Satellite style or turns on 3D.
Places
The Places segment lists everything the party has saved or scheduled for this trip, plus suggestions from the trip's guides.
A row of chips filters the list and the pins together:
- All — everything.
- Going — only places with a date on the itinerary. Each card shows its Going · date pill.
- Saved — only places someone in the party has marked Want to go.
- One chip per place type present: Food & Drink, Culture, Outdoors, Shopping, Experiences.
- Nearby — a sort, not a filter. It reorders the whole list by distance from where you're standing. The first tap asks for your location; while it's working the chip reads Locating….
Chips appear only when they'd show something. If nobody has saved a place yet, there's no Saved chip.
How the list is grouped
- A trip in several cities gets one row of cards per city. Scroll to a city's row and the map moves there.
- A trip in one city gets one row per place type instead. A line above the rows names the city and, when there is one, your stay.
- With Nearby on, everything collapses into a single row in distance order.
The map shows one city at a time, following the row you're looking at.
Guides
The Guides segment opens the trip's cities' guides inside Explore. If the trip spans more than one city, a row of city chips at the top of the sheet switches between them. You get the same guide as on the public pages — Top Sights, Neighborhoods, Day Trips and so on — but every card carries your trip's state: a bookmark you can tap, and a Going · date pill for places already on a day. Tap a neighborhood to drill in; the back arrow returns to the city.
Adding something new
If a place isn't in the list or the guides, tap + in the bottom bar to search for it or type it in. An empty trip offers the same thing as an Add Place button.
