Stopover has three main areas on the screen. The app is easier to use once you know the map, sidebar, timeline, and detail panels.
The top bar
Across the top you'll find:
- Trip title — click to rename.
- Trip dates — click to change. Everything stretches or shrinks to fit.
- Trip stats — a quick readout of flights, hotel nights, total cost, and how many legs are booked vs. still pending.
- Trip menu — switch between trips, start a new one, duplicate the current one, load a sample, or import/export a
.jsonfile.
The sidebar (left)
Four tabs:
- Overview — every leg of your trip in order. This is your home base.
- Activities — things to do in each city you're staying in.
- Notes — a free-form notebook for the trip and for individual legs. Supports bold and italics.
- Budget — what every part of the trip costs, with manual line items for food, ground transit, and miscellaneous.
The map (center)
Every city in your trip is a pin. Every flight or ground leg is an arc connecting two pins. Click a pin to see what's happening in that city. Click an arc to open the flight or ground leg details.
The timeline (bottom)
A horizontal strip showing your trip from start to finish. Each leg appears as a bar in the right slot. Helpful for spotting empty days or accidental overlaps. You can hide it in the display settings if you want more map.
Detail panels
When you click a pin, an arc, or the + button in the sidebar, a panel slides in over the map. That's where you search, paste links, or type in details. Close it with Esc or by clicking outside.
Most actions happen in one of those four places.
