# Trips

- Page: https://longbook.app/help/trips/

A trip gets its own report: what a holiday, a visit or a work trip cost, counted over its days, people and accounts.

## Start a trip

Open **Trips** (in Settings on iPhone, or ⌘7 on Mac) and choose **Start a trip**. longbook asks for:

- **Trip name**: what the trip's report is called, such as Goa or Mum's visit.
- **Trip people**: the people travelling.
- **Trip accounts**: the cards and accounts the trip is paid from. Choose none to count every account.

Tap **Start Trip**. **Trip mode** is on: the trip counts confirmed charges from today until you end it.

## Add a past trip

Choose **Add a past trip**, then give it a name, people, accounts and **Trip dates**: the first and last day. Confirmed charges on those days are counted. Tap **Add Trip**.

## End a trip

Tap **End Trip**. The report keeps the days from the trip's first day to today.

## See what a trip cost

**Trips** lists your past trips. **Open Report** opens a trip's report, which also appears in **Reports**. Like monthly reports, a trip counts confirmed charges only: ones a statement or an email proves, or that you marked paid.

## Questions

### Can my AI make a trip report?

Yes. Ask it: "Make a report of my Goa trip in my longbook". It fills in as the trip's charges are confirmed.

### Why is a charge missing from my trip?

It may not be confirmed yet, it may fall outside the trip's days, or it may be paid from an account the trip doesn't count.

Still have a question? Open **Support** in the app, under **Settings**, then **Help & about**, or write to contact@longbook.app and a person answers.
