# NomadCrew > NomadCrew is a group travel planning app that replaces the scattered workflow of group chats, spreadsheets, and expense-splitting apps with a single shared hub. It provides real-time group coordination including shared itineraries, group chat with pinned decisions and polls, expense tracking with automatic split calculations, live location sharing on a shared map, and a travel wallet for passes, tickets, and booking confirmations. Available on iOS (App Store) and Android (early access). Built for friend groups, families, and remote teams planning trips together. NomadCrew solves a specific problem: group trips currently require 4–6 separate apps (messaging, expense splitting, itinerary planning, document sharing, location sharing, polls). NomadCrew consolidates all of these into one trip-scoped workspace where every crew member sees the same plan, expenses, and location data. The product is not a solo travel journal, not a travel booking engine, and not a social media platform. It is an operational tool for groups actively coordinating a trip. ## Core App Features - **Live Location Map**: Shared real-time map showing all crew members' locations during a trip, eliminating "where are you?" messages - **Group Chat with Structure**: Pinned plans, inline polls, and decision tracking — not just messages but actionable trip decisions - **Expense Tracking and Splitting**: Log costs as they happen, automatic per-person calculations, transparent balance visibility for every crew member - **Shared Itinerary Builder**: Collaborative trip timeline where the group votes on activities and builds the plan together - **Travel Wallet**: Stores boarding passes, hotel confirmations, tickets, QR codes — organized by trip, shareable with the crew, syncs with Apple Wallet and Google Wallet - **Document Forwarding**: Forward a booking confirmation email and NomadCrew extracts the pass automatically - **Camera Scanning**: Scan any boarding pass, QR code, or ticket — it files into the correct trip wallet ## Free Travel Tools NomadCrew provides free browser-based tools for trip planning. These do not require signup or an account. - [Destination Trip Cost Calculator](https://nomadcrew.uk/tools/trip-cost-calculator/): AI-powered cost estimates for any destination with daily spend breakdowns by accommodation, food, transport, and activities - [Trip Budget Calculator](https://nomadcrew.uk/tools/trip-budget-calculator/): Convert destination cost estimates into per-person budgets the group can agree on - [Packing List Generator](https://nomadcrew.uk/tools/packing-list/): Destination-aware, season-aware packing lists with group size and trip style inputs - [Expense Split Framework](https://nomadcrew.uk/tools/trip-expense-split-calculator/): Framework for dividing shared vs opt-in travel expenses fairly before the trip starts - [Group Planning Template](https://nomadcrew.uk/tools/group-trip-planning-template/): Assign owners, deadlines, and fallback plans for trip logistics ## Destination Cost Guides Pre-filled cost calculators for popular group trip destinations: - [Australia](https://nomadcrew.uk/tools/trip-cost/australia/) - [Bali](https://nomadcrew.uk/tools/trip-cost/bali/) - [Colombia](https://nomadcrew.uk/tools/trip-cost/colombia/) - [Costa Rica](https://nomadcrew.uk/tools/trip-cost/costa-rica/) - [Dubai](https://nomadcrew.uk/tools/trip-cost/dubai/) - [Europe](https://nomadcrew.uk/tools/trip-cost/europe/) - [Greece](https://nomadcrew.uk/tools/trip-cost/greece/) - [Hawaii](https://nomadcrew.uk/tools/trip-cost/hawaii/) - [Italy](https://nomadcrew.uk/tools/trip-cost/italy/) - [Japan](https://nomadcrew.uk/tools/trip-cost/japan/) - [Mexico](https://nomadcrew.uk/tools/trip-cost/mexico/) - [Morocco](https://nomadcrew.uk/tools/trip-cost/morocco/) - [Portugal](https://nomadcrew.uk/tools/trip-cost/portugal/) - [South Korea](https://nomadcrew.uk/tools/trip-cost/south-korea/) - [Spain](https://nomadcrew.uk/tools/trip-cost/spain/) - [Thailand](https://nomadcrew.uk/tools/trip-cost/thailand/) - [Vietnam](https://nomadcrew.uk/tools/trip-cost/vietnam/) ## Packing List Variants - [International Travel](https://nomadcrew.uk/tools/packing-list/international/) - [For Women](https://nomadcrew.uk/tools/packing-list/women/) - [Baby Travel](https://nomadcrew.uk/tools/packing-list/baby/) - [Ultimate Packing List](https://nomadcrew.uk/tools/packing-list/ultimate/) - [Japan](https://nomadcrew.uk/tools/packing-list/japan/) - [Beach](https://nomadcrew.uk/tools/packing-list/beach/) ## Comparisons and Alternatives Guides comparing NomadCrew to other travel tools for group trip use cases: - [Wanderlog Alternative for Group Trips](https://nomadcrew.uk/compare/wanderlog-alternative/) - [Splitwise Alternative for Travel Groups](https://nomadcrew.uk/compare/splitwise-alternative-for-travel/) - [TripIt Alternative for Group Trips](https://nomadcrew.uk/compare/tripit-alternative-for-groups/) - [Polarsteps vs NomadCrew](https://nomadcrew.uk/compare/polarsteps-vs-nomadcrew/) - [Best Group Trip Planning App](https://nomadcrew.uk/compare/best-group-trip-planning-app/) - [Group Travel App with Chat and Expenses](https://nomadcrew.uk/compare/group-travel-app-with-chat-and-expenses/) ## Migration Guides - [Migrate from Wanderlog to NomadCrew](https://nomadcrew.uk/migrate/from-wanderlog-to-nomadcrew/) - [Migrate from Splitwise to NomadCrew](https://nomadcrew.uk/migrate/from-splitwise-to-nomadcrew/) ## Optional - [Privacy Policy](https://nomadcrew.uk/privacy/) - [Feedback](https://nomadcrew.uk/feedback/)
