All the Essentials in One Place: TripIt Adds Traveler Profile to Mobile AppSAN FRANCISCO, March 17, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- TripIt® from Concur®, the world's highest-rated travel-organizing app, now makes it easier for travelers to keep their travel documents and emergency contacts organized with a new feature, Traveler Profile. Now, travelers can store their essential travel documents, and the contacts they need the most while traveling, right within their TripIt iOS or Android mobile app.  "One of the most frustrating parts of travel is staying organized, and for TripIt, we're always looking for ways that our app can take the hassle out of the travel," said Jen Moyse, head of product at TripIt from Concur. "With the addition of Traveler Profile, our users now have access to everything they need while traveling—from the time their flight takes off, to their babysitter's phone number—all in one easy to access place." Almost any document or contact can be stored within Traveler Profile, allowing travelers to customize their profile, so they have access to the information they need the most while on the go. The feature also comes with nearly 20 preset document and contact types, allowing travelers to store:
How It Works: Traveler Profile lets travelers save and view important information from their TripIt app. To access the new feature, users simply visit the home screen of their TripIt app and tap on Profile. From there, users can store any document or contact they'd like access to while traveling—with the ability to view, add or edit the information directly from their mobile phone, or via the tripit.com website. The first time a document or contact is stored, or viewed, within the app, users are also required to set up a four-digit security PIN. When accessing Traveler Profile from a mobile phone, the four-digit security PIN is required before the user can view or edit any documents or contacts. Traveler Profile is available on the TripIt iOS and Android mobile phone apps, as well as TripIt.com. For more information on TripIt and the new Traveler Profile feature, visit: www.tripit.com.
