Hi travelers! Big news — adding photos and videos to your trips is now a hundred times easier (maybe even a thousand). First of all, we now support iCloud shared albums, making it a lot easier for you to pinch all of your mate's awesome photos (with their permission, of course). On top of that, finding your own photos is simpler, with the ability to make specific searches — such as the date, location, or the subject of the photo. No more scrolling!
