The UI resembles a  leathery travel diary where one would glue pictures in and add notes  and descriptions to. The app is also very reliable in that it never  crashes, which is, in my opinion, exactly what one would expect from  such a travel companion.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-11875\" title=\"4\" src=\"http:\/\/www.androidguys.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/12\/4-200x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\" \/>Trip Journal has used current day technology  to fulfill a classical demand for documenting and sharing experiences  and has done this in a way that can only be described as &#8220;AWESOME&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>I recommend everyone to at least try  the lite version or buy the full version. The full version is 2,99 euros.\u00a0 <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-11876\" title=\"5\" src=\"http:\/\/www.androidguys.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/12\/5-200x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\" \/>Check out their site for Trip Journal<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/iqapps.eu\/TripJournal\/index.php\" >http:\/\/iqapps.eu\/TripJournal\/index.php<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~a\/Q4fqO6xbw7BEORxwrYFvSCnMASQ\/0\/da\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~a\/Q4fqO6xbw7BEORxwrYFvSCnMASQ\/0\/di\" border=\"0\" ismap=\"true\"><\/img><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~a\/Q4fqO6xbw7BEORxwrYFvSCnMASQ\/1\/da\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~a\/Q4fqO6xbw7BEORxwrYFvSCnMASQ\/1\/di\" border=\"0\" ismap=\"true\"><\/img><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"feedflare\">\n<a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/androidguyscom?a=vumn-4RC0JY:2jZ4wNEv3I8:D7DqB2pKExk\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/androidguyscom?i=vumn-4RC0JY:2jZ4wNEv3I8:D7DqB2pKExk\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/androidguyscom?a=vumn-4RC0JY:2jZ4wNEv3I8:gIN9vFwOqvQ\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/androidguyscom?i=vumn-4RC0JY:2jZ4wNEv3I8:gIN9vFwOqvQ\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/androidguyscom?a=vumn-4RC0JY:2jZ4wNEv3I8:yIl2AUoC8zA\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/androidguyscom?d=yIl2AUoC8zA\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/androidguyscom?a=vumn-4RC0JY:2jZ4wNEv3I8:qj6IDK7rITs\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/androidguyscom?d=qj6IDK7rITs\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/androidguyscom?a=vumn-4RC0JY:2jZ4wNEv3I8:6swKnRFnXgo\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/androidguyscom?i=vumn-4RC0JY:2jZ4wNEv3I8:6swKnRFnXgo\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a>\n<\/div>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~r\/androidguyscom\/~4\/vumn-4RC0JY\" height=\"1\" width=\"1\"\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The following software review was conducted by &#8220;Royalness&#8221;, an avid\u00a0 follower and occasional AndroidGuys guest writer.\u00a0 Here&#8217; he takes a look at an application called Trip Journal, which was the winner in the Travel category for the Android Developer Challenge II.\u00a0 Trip Journal is the ultimate trip tracking, recording, documenting and sharing solution that is [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-135859","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mereja.media\/index\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/135859","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mereja.media\/index\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mereja.media\/index\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mereja.media\/index\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mereja.media\/index\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=135859"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/mereja.media\/index\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/135859\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mereja.media\/index\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=135859"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mereja.media\/index\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=135859"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mereja.media\/index\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=135859"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
