By TripIt

March 17, 2015

If you love the travel organizing capability of TripIt, then our newest feature is going to be your best friend. Traveler Profile allows you to keep all of your important travel documents and emergency contacts handy while you’re on the go, right from your TripIt app on iOS or Android. No more digging through your bag for your passport or worrying that you’ll lose your phone and be stuck without your contacts. You can customize your profile with pretty much any document or contact you need while traveling, meaning you’ll never be high and dry without the information you need most, including:
  • Passports and more—Essential travel documents, such as passports, IDs, drivers licenses and Global Entry cards, can be stored within Traveler Profile for instant access to these documents whenever they are needed.
  • Important contacts—From sitters to doctors, Traveler Profile centralizes the contacts people need the most while traveling, so they can easily access them while on the go.
  • Documents and contacts for friends and family—Those traveling with a group can also use Traveler Profile to store important travel documents and contacts for their friends and family, keeping everyone’s travel information organized and in one place.
Traveler Profile was built with a variety of travelers in mind. International travelers now have a more convenient way to fill out paperwork and store backups of their travel documents, while parents can use the feature to store their children’s travel documents, right alongside the dog sitter’s or doctor’s contact details How It Works: Traveler Profile lets travelers save and view important information from their TripIt app. To access the new feature, users simply visit the home screen of their TripIt app and tap on Profile. From there, users can store any document or contact they’d like access to while traveling—with the ability to view, add or edit the information directly from their mobile phone, or via the website. The first time a document or contact is stored, or viewed, within the app, users are also required to set up a four-digit security PIN. When accessing Traveler Profile from a mobile phone, the four-digit security PIN is required before the user can view or edit any documents or contacts. Traveler Profile is available on the TripIt iOS and Android mobile phone apps, as well as TripIt.com. For more information on TripIt and the new Traveler Profile feature, visit: .
