Short answer

Wanderlog has a generous free plan, but offline access and dark mode need Wanderlog Pro (from $39.99/year), and it has no visa or passport features on any plan. NomadPoint keeps your trip offline and in dark mode for free, and includes visa rules, Schengen day counting and passport checks for the passport you hold.

Wanderlog

Wanderlog is a strong collaborative travel planner with maps, route optimisation and shared editing, and it is especially good for road trips and group vacations. It has no concept of entry rules. NomadPoint plans the same itinerary, shared and edited together live, and adds visas, passports and entry rules for every stop.

Where it wins

  • Excellent collaborative editing with travel companions
  • Map-based route planning and optimisation
  • Strong web app alongside mobile
  • Large database of places and reviews

Wanderlog has a generous free tier; Wanderlog Pro starts at $39.99/year (wanderlog.com/pro, checked September 2026). NomadPoint is free to download and use. NomadPoint Pro is optional: $7.99/month or $29.99/year in the US (priced lower in most other countries), with weekly and one-time lifetime options.

NomadPoint

NomadPoint replaces Wanderlog for any trip, from two weeks with friends to months on the road: the itinerary, route order, shared editing and an offline plan, plus the visa rules for everyone on the trip.

What NomadPoint adds

  • Visa and entry requirements per destination, for your passport
  • Rolling-window day counting (Schengen 90/180, CA-4)
  • Passport validity warnings before you book
  • Built for continuous multi-month travel rather than a single trip

Questions

Is Wanderlog free?

Mostly. Wanderlog is free with unlimited trips, places and tripmates, live collaboration and email import. Offline access, route optimisation, export to Google Maps, Gmail scanning, dark mode, unlimited attachments and unlimited AI help need Wanderlog Pro, from $39.99 a year (checked September 2026).

Which Wanderlog Pro features does NomadPoint include for free?

Having your trip plan available offline and dark mode are free in NomadPoint. NomadPoint also includes visa and entry rules for your passport, Schengen 90/180 day counting and passport validity checks for free, none of which Wanderlog offers on any plan.

Is Wanderlog or NomadPoint better?

On iPhone, iPad and Mac, NomadPoint does what Wanderlog does for any trip, a holiday with friends included, and adds entry rules, Schengen days and passport checks that Wanderlog does not have. If you need Android or a web app, Wanderlog runs on both.

Does NomadPoint work on Android?

Not on Android. NomadPoint runs on iPhone, iPad, Mac and Apple Watch, and in any browser at nomadpoint.app. If you need an Android app, Wanderlog has one.

How is NomadPoint different from Wanderlog?

Wanderlog is built around collaboratively planning where you will go. NomadPoint is built around whether you can stay: entry rules for your passport, days remaining per country, and rolling-window zones such as Schengen.

Does Wanderlog track visas?

No. Wanderlog focuses on itinerary and route planning. Entry requirements and day counting are what NomadPoint adds.
