Trip collaboration is a Pro and Premium perk that allows you to work on a trip with your fellow travel companions, even if they don't have a Roadtrippers membership! Collaborators are required to create a free Roadtrippers account to participate.
- Collaborators can review the trip, edit, and add waypoints.
- 24 hours after a trip has been saved or edited an email will be sent to everyone in the trip to let them know a change was made (you will not get an email if you made the change).
Read on below to learn how to invite friends to collaborate on trips!
Trip Notes
Heads up! There are 2 types of waypoint notes. Private Notes will only be visible to you. Collaborator Notes will be visible and editable by all collaborators.
Inviting a Collaborator
- Open your trip on the map.
- Click the Invite button in the top-right corner of the itinerary panel (person+ icon).
- Enter the email address of the person you want to invite and send the invitation. They'll receive an email invite to start editing with you. If they already have an account, the trip will automatically be synced to their account.
- Once they accept, their avatar will appear in the top-right corner of your itinerary.
Viewing and Managing Collaborators
If your trip already has collaborators, their avatar(s) will appear in the top-right corner of the itinerary panel with your avatar, instead of the Invite button.
Click the avatars to open the collaborator management view, where you can see who has access, invite more collaborators, or remove collaborators.
- Tap the My Trips tab and select your trip to open it.
- Switch from the map view to the itinerary by tapping the blue Itinerary bar at the bottom of the map.
- Either tap the people icon at the top of the itinerary or go to the Details tab, look for the COLLABORATORS section and tap the edit (pencil) or + "Add travelers" link.
- Enter a friend's email address or invite from your contacts.
- Your trip will be shared with your friend(s) and they'll be invited to start editing with you. If they already have an account, the trip will automatically be synced to their account.
