Polarsteps makes sharing our travels with family and friends easy. I'm still figuring out how to use the app more effectively so I have less editing when I get home but I am enjoying learning. I have three travel books from past trips that are lovely and were simple to create. I've also used the Polarsteps guides for planning and found some great tips.

Great to use polar steps. One small thing, I might miss something but it would be great if you could save a draft without publishing the step. Often you draft as you go but you have to publish to save the step. I would prefer to draft it first. Maybe this is possible but I haven't figured it out yet.

Update on 9/16/2025: I have used Polarsteps on many trips. I absolutely love it! So easy to add photos and journal about each stop. I love the sharing feature so friends and loved ones can follow along. I recently did a coast to coast road trip and it was fun for everyone to watch us move real time and see all the fun things we did on the way! I will never travel without it!
