I keep giving LLMs a chance to impress me, whenever I encounter a boring task that they should be good at, and they keep shitting the bed. Not like 'this was too hard a problem for fancy autocomplete' shitting the bed, like 'randomly deleting swathes of code' shitting the bed

Small but steady improvements to loading speed & scrolling! 🎉
1. Images from Google should now load much quicker when navigating pages
2. The map view now requires two fingers to move around when not in full screen mode. This should make scrolling and pull-to-refresh easier!

✨ New: Custom tags! ✨ Tags are a great way to organize and find places in your lists. Now, you can create custom tags to make your lists your own!
For now you can only create tags. Editing and removing custom tags as well as hiding the default tags are still in progress and will be available soon!

Right now, Trek is only available on the web since it's an easier place to iterate and figure out what feels right.
I've been using Trek for a couple months now, and it's already changed how I travel.
Try it out, and let me know what things feel fun, confusing, or useful!

Trek is designed with sharing and collaboration in mind. Frequently, I’ve either asked or answered the question, “Where should I go in this city?” Trek is built to be the solution to this question. Whether making a list of places at home or abroad, Trek is your place for your places.

I’ve been on the road for six months, exploring some of the most stunning places on earth. I created an app, Trek, that I wish I had sooner to keep track of all the amazing places I’ve been and the ones I still want to visit.
