Pogo Travel is an AI trip planner that stores places on shared pinboards and turns them into a day-by-day itinerary, with hotel and flight search built in.

About Pogo Travel
What Is Pogo Travel
Pogo Travel is a trip planning app made by Pogo Travel Limited, a UK company. You save places, restaurants, and hotels to a pinboard for each trip, invite others to add ideas, and let the app turn those saves into a day-by-day itinerary. The pitch is that trip planning stops living across notes, screenshots, and group chats, and starts living in one place.
The AI part sits in two areas. AI-powered search suggests places based on your destination and interests, and Pogo Magic, a feature inside the paid Pogo Plus tier, builds a personalized itinerary from what you've saved. Hotel and flight search runs through partners including Booking.com and Skyscanner, and you finish the booking on the partner site rather than inside Pogo.
The main limitation is platform. Pogo runs on iPhone and iPad, while an Android version remains on a waitlist, so Android users can't use it yet. The AI itinerary and the deeper personalization features also sit behind the Pogo Plus subscription, which means the free app is mostly a pinboard and organizer. The app doesn't complete bookings for you.
Getting Started
- Download Pogo free from the App Store and create an account.
- Create a pinboard for a trip, then pin places, restaurants, hotels, and attractions you want to visit.
- Invite friends or family to the pinboard so everyone can add pins and vote on ideas.
- Open the itinerary view and arrange your saved pins by date and time, with comments to sort out the plan together.
- Subscribe to Pogo Plus if you want Pogo Magic to draft a full day-by-day itinerary, or search hotels and flights when it's time to book.

Key features
Pinboards for every trip
A pinboard is a dedicated space for one trip, and you pin anything relevant to it: places, restaurants, hotels, and notes. The point is to stop losing ideas across notes apps, screenshots, and messaging threads. You can share a pinboard or send links, images, and video into it straight from a browser, which keeps the source material next to the plan. Each board also carries its own map, so every saved pin shows up in one view.
AI itinerary with Pogo Magic
Pogo Magic generates a personalized day-by-day itinerary from what you've saved and how you've interacted with similar boards. It factors in how long you're staying, your budget, and who you're traveling with, and it weighs details like the best time to visit busy attractions, travel time between stops, and weather. You can untick suggestions you don't want and regenerate the plan whenever your thinking changes. This is a Pogo Plus feature, so it isn't part of the free app.
Collaboration and group voting
You invite friends, family, or travel companions to a pinboard, and everyone adds pins and votes for their favorites. Item commenting lets the group settle when to do what without another noisy group chat. For shared trips, this is the part that stops one person from carrying the whole plan. Access follows the pinboard you share, so you control who joins each trip.
Hotel and flight search
Pogo searches hotels and flights through partners including Booking.com and Skyscanner, so you compare options without leaving the app. You can save a hotel or fare back to your pinboard and keep the booking details alongside the plan. The reservation itself happens with the partner, which matters if you want a single record of what you booked and when. Plus members also get member discounts of up to 20% on certain bookings.
Personalized map view
Open the map view on a pinboard and every place you've saved appears on one map, so you see what's near each other before locking a route. You group activities by area and plan the order of a day more realistically. Plus members can drop the map anywhere and pull in fresh, interest-based ideas for that spot, which is handy for a day trip or a free afternoon.
Reservations, packing, and documents
You add or import flights, hotels, restaurants, and activities so the booking details sit with the itinerary rather than in a separate folder. Packing lists and travel checklists cover the prep, and boarding passes, tickets, and confirmations stay in the app for quick access. It turns Pogo from a planning tool into the place you check on the day you travel.
Pogo Pocket and idea discovery
Pogo Pocket holds places and inspiration you aren't ready to assign to a trip yet, so a save doesn't have to start a full itinerary. When you pick a destination, you move those ideas into a new trip. AI-powered search delivers interest-based suggestions for your destination, and Plus members can request more ideas whenever they want instead of waiting for a daily drop.
Pros and cons
Pros
- Planning, saving, and booking search sit in one app, so you stop bouncing between a notes app, a maps app, and a booking site.
- The AI itinerary draws on your own saves and interests rather than a generic template, and you can edit and regenerate it.
- Collaboration with pins, votes, and comments replaces the messy group chat most shared trips start with.
- The map view and reservation tracking keep the practical side of a trip, like boarding passes and bookings, in the same place as the plan.
- A free tier covers pinboards, organizing, and hotel and flight search, so you can try it before paying for Pogo Plus.
Cons
- Pogo is iOS only, and the Android version is still on a waitlist, so Android users can't plan with it.
- Pogo Magic and the deeper personalization sit behind Pogo Plus, which narrows what a free account actually gets.
- The app doesn't complete bookings, so you still finish the purchase on Booking.com, Skyscanner, or the hotel's own site.
- Subscription pricing is shown inside the app and shifts with region and promotions, so the exact cost isn't fixed on the website.
