Camping — make room for the trip

A shared place for the itinerary, packing list and expenses, so a trip takes less arranging.

The released September redesign, shown in English with sample data. This is an interface capture, not a real group’s trip.

Before everyone sets off

Even a small trip has a surprising number of loose ends: where to go, what to bring, who has booked what, and how to split the bill afterwards. I built Camping to keep those details together, with a shared itinerary, tasks, packing lists and expenses.

A little help with the fiddly parts

AI can help draft an itinerary and turn a receipt into editable items. People still review the suggestions and decide how to split each expense. The app also handles different currencies and works in English and Traditional Chinese.

Small details that make sharing easier

I worked on the less visible parts too: clear member roles, careful expense validation, retryable saves and confirmation before discarding edits. Those details matter when several people are arranging the same trip. Sign in with Google to start your own; each group keeps its own workspace.

Arrive in your own language

The link from this page opens Camping in English; the Chinese case opens its Traditional Chinese interface. The app also remembers language changes. Sign in with Google for your own workspace. The images here show sample data, and the public landing page explains the product before sign-in.

One studio, a working tool

The September redesign brings the studio’s paper, ink and quieter type into the landing page and workspace. Plan, pack and split remain the centre of the product. AI provides an editable draft, while people choose what to save. Recording a settlement keeps a note of a payment; it does not move money between friends.
