Power tips

Tricks the regulars use

Pro tip

Stack your prompt

The more aesthetic + format keywords you stack ('cinematic', 'old-money', 'cliff-side', 'reel-ready'), the more on-vibe the output.

Pro tip

Regenerate the mood-board

Each regenerate gives you a brand new angle — re-roll a few times to get one that screenshots perfectly.

Pro tip

Use Discover as a launchpad

Open a destination on Discover, click a spot you like, then tap 'Build my AI trip from this' for a focused itinerary.

Pro tip

Voice prompt while travelling

On the road and inspired? Open the Copilot, tap the mic, and ask 'Add a hidden coffee spot near here' — it knows your trip.

Pro tip

Sign in to never lose trips

Saves work for guests too, but signing in with Google syncs everything across phone, laptop and tablet.

Pro tip

Share before the trip, not after

Sharing the public link or PNG before you travel often gets more engagement than post-trip recaps. The viral score is your hook.
