Traceflap

Travel companion for iPhone

Door to door

Traceflap is with you for the whole trip: train, plane, tram, bus, boat, mountain railway, car, bike, e-scooter and every walk in between. Live, on one screen, from the walk to the station to the hotel at your destination.

What you need to know, exactly when you need it.

Other apps do flights, or trains, or cities. Traceflap knows the whole journey, so it knows what matters next.

Your seat, and what you’ll see from it.

Traceflap shows your seat on the aircraft’s seat map and works out from the route and the position of the sun which side gets the Alps. In flight, it tells you what’s below you right now.

  • Boarding and getting off: which door, how many rows to your seat
  • Out of the window now: ‘right: Lake Constance, Säntis’
  • Seat features: window, wing, legroom

A plan for the time you actually have.

The city guide plans from the moment you arrive until you leave. Checked places instead of endless lists, with opening hours, walking times and a plan for rainy days.

  • Departures nearby live: metro, tram and bus
  • In the evening: food, bars and culture to suit your mood
  • Change the plan in your own words: ‘fewer museums, more coffee’

Your trips stay with you. As a journal and a Passport.

Routes, photos and the places you visited end up in your journal by themselves. The Passport counts kilometres, countries and cities. If your train was late, Traceflap pre-fills the compensation claim with the actual times.

  • Travel report of your day, written on your iPhone
  • Compensation for rail and air (EU 261)

Privacy

Your trip belongs to you.

Traceflap is built in Switzerland and does as much as possible right on your iPhone. Our server only gets what it needs for timetables and live data.

Your trips stay on your iPhone

Trips, journal, photos and boarding passes are stored only on your device.

No account, no ads, no tracking

You don’t have to sign up for anything. We don’t sell data.

AI on your device

Apple’s AI reads your bookings and writes your travel reports on your iPhone. Your emails never reach us.

Price

Pay for the trip, not for the whole year.

If you travel twice a year, you don’t need an ongoing subscription. If you’re often on the move, take one.

Per trip or by subscription.

A Trip Pass covers one trip from door to door, with everything that goes with it. Frequent travellers can choose an annual subscription, and there is a family plan for the whole household. Traceflap is coming soon to the App Store, and we’ll announce prices at launch. Until then, testing is free.
