Question 31

What is Trip Inbox?

Accepted Answer

Trip Inbox gives each trip its own private email address. Forward a booking confirmation to it - a flight, hotel, tour, rental car - and TripProf reads the email and its attachments and files the booking into that trip's Documents, with dates, times, prices and addresses already filled in.You get an inbox once you upgrade that trip to Pro. Each trip has its own address, and only the trip organizer and editors can see and use it.You can copy the address, share it, have it emailed to you, or replace it with a new one at any time. It stops accepting mail shortly after the trip ends.

Question 32

What happens if Trip Inbox cannot read something I forward?

Accepted Answer

Some emails do not come through cleanly - a password-protected PDF, an attachment that is too large, or a confirmation without enough detail to work with. Those appear in a "we could not read" list on the trip along with the reason, so you can add the booking by hand instead.

Question 33

What is Atlas?

Accepted Answer

Atlas is your travel map across every trip, not just one. It is a record of the countries you have been to, when you were there, which cities you saw and who you were with - built up over time and kept in its own tab, separate from any single trip.As it fills in you earn badges and move up travel tiers, and Atlas works out a travel persona from where you have actually been. Nothing is a quiz; it is all read from your map.

Question 34

Do my trips automatically appear in Atlas?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Once a trip is active or completed and has destinations set, TripProf adds those countries to your Atlas on its own. It records a visit for each country with your travel dates, fills in the cities from your destinations, adds everyone else on the trip as travel companions, and clears that country from your want-to-go list.This happens for every traveler on the trip who has a TripProf account, not just the organizer. Countries you only passed through in transit are not counted by default, and if you remove a country from your Atlas by hand it will not come back.

Question 35

What can I record about a visit?

Accepted Answer

Each country can hold as many visits as you like, so returning somewhere adds to it rather than replacing what is there. For every visit you can set when you were there - an exact date, an approximate one like "March 2019" or just a year, or no date at all - along with the cities you spent time in, the people you traveled with, photos and notes.You can also tick off the landmarks you have seen. Landmarks live inside cities, so add a city to a visit first and its landmarks become available.

Question 36

How do badges work?

Accepted Answer

Badges unlock as your map grows. They come from four places: medals for the countries you add, tiers for how many countries you have reached in total, city badges, and landmarks and collections you complete. You do not claim them - they appear as you record where you have been.

Question 37

I have traveled a lot before joining TripProf. Can I add past trips?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Atlas has a paint mode where you tap every country you have already been to and add them all at once. It is not only for new accounts - you can open it whenever you like, and it starts with the countries your TripProf trips have already put on your map.Painting adds the countries. You can then go back and fill in the detail for any of them - dates, cities, companions, photos and notes - as much or as little as you want.

Question 38

I marked countries on the TripProf world map. Can I bring them into my account?

Accepted Answer

Yes. If you colored in countries on world.tripprof.com and then signed up, that map comes with you into Atlas. If you were signed out when you opened the link it is added quietly once your account is set up; if you were already signed in, TripProf asks first and tells you which account it is adding to.Your countries are merged with whatever is already in your Atlas, never overwritten, and a map can only be added once.

Question 39

Can I share my Atlas with other people?

Accepted Answer

Only if you choose to. You can claim a handle and get a public page at tripprof.com/@yourhandle that anyone can open in a browser without a TripProf account. Nothing is public until you claim it, and the page goes live the moment you do.You control what appears: cities, badges, rank, people and your timeline can each be switched on or off, and journeys are published one at a time. You can rename your handle or switch the page off entirely at any point, which removes it.Your want-to-go list, your exact travel dates, your trip memories and the photos attached to your visits are never published, whatever your settings. Notes and photos you write into an Atlas post can appear, but only on a journey you have chosen to publish and only if you turn those extras on.

Question 40

What can I create and share from Atlas?

Accepted Answer

Atlas turns your map into shareable pictures: postcard-style cards for your map, badges, routes, cities, timeline and more, in several shapes to suit different apps. Your painted map can also be exported as a short video that plays your countries filling in.Everything leaves through your phone's normal share sheet, so it can go to Instagram, Messages or anywhere else, or you can just save it. There is no public feed inside TripProf.

Question 41

How do I share a trip with someone else?

Accepted Answer

Two ways, both open to the trip organizer and editors:Share link - one link for the whole trip that gives anyone who opens it viewer access. You can turn it off or replace it at any time.Invite someone directly - choose whether they join as an editor or a viewer, then send it by email or as a personal link. Invitations sent to a specific person eventually expire; the general share link stays valid until you turn it off.Either way they need to sign in or create a free account before they can see anything about the trip; there is no preview without one. When they join they pick which traveler on the trip they are, or add themselves as a new one.

Question 42

How does expense splitting work?

Accepted Answer

Every expense is either "Just me", which stays in your own budget and never reaches Settle Up, or "Split" with the group.For a split expense you choose who paid - one person, or several people who each covered part of it - and who it should be divided between. Tap anyone to include or exclude them, including yourself, so you can pay for something without owing a share of it. Split it Equal, By amount or By %, and TripProf works out the shares so they always add up to the total to the cent.Children on the trip are left out of splits by default, so their share is carried by the adults who are splitting. You can include them if you would rather.

Question 43

What does Settle Up do?

Accepted Answer

Settle Up takes every split expense on the trip and nets it down to who owes whom, so nobody has to add it up by hand. Simple shows the fewest payments that clear everyone; Details shows the exact amount between each pair of people. Any repayments you have already recorded are counted in.

Question 44

Can I mark a debt as paid without adding an expense?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Tap Settle up on a balance and record the payment - how much, who paid whom, and whether it was cash, card or a transfer, in any currency. It is recorded separately from your expenses, so it clears the balance without changing what the trip cost. Every repayment goes into a settlement log where you can undo it if you get one wrong.
