Yay and f-i-n-a-l-l-y! After much anticipation, Trip Advisor launched its first iPhone App last Tuesday. Now you can access “the world’s most trusted travel site’s” mammoth offering of user-generated reviews, as well as book hotels and flights in-app.
I have a love/hate relationship with Trip Advisor. I love and value the reviews from smart, savvy travel ‘advisors,’ but strongly dislike the reviews from bent-out-of-shape travelers who just want to rant. However, I recognize that a site with thousands of daily reviews is bound to have a few bad apples in the bunch. Either way, I’m a big fan and am very excited about the app!

I can’t wait until they have an Android app. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve used my browser on my phone to lookup TripAdvisor info. So much better when it can use your phone’s GPS to show you nearby info.
Good update to the TripAdvisor app!
