Plan group camping trips together

FlockTrot gives your whole crew one shared place for the itinerary, the supplies, the campsite and the costs — so nobody's scrolling back through group texts to find out who's bringing the tent.

Free, no subscription, no ads — and your trips work offline at the campground.

Stop planning your trip across five group texts

Every part of a group camping trip that normally gets lost in a thread — the plan, the packing, the money — has a home in FlockTrot.

A shared itinerary

Lay the trip out day by day in list, calendar or map view. Add meals, activities and drives with times and locations everyone can see — and track exactly who's coming to each one.

AI trip builder Beta

Describe the trip in plain language and FlockTrot drafts a day-by-day plan — where to stay, how you're getting there, meals and activities — for your group to review and adjust.

Group chat that does something

Every trip gets its own chat. Highlight any message and turn it straight into an itinerary item, a supply someone's bringing, or a shared expense — no retyping.

Supplies and meals, claimed

Keep one running list of what the trip needs, tag items to the group bringing them, and claim meals — so you end up with one cooler, not four, and somebody actually brings the stove.

Split costs fairly

Log the campsite fee, the firewood, the grocery run. Split each cost however makes sense, then see exactly who owes who when it's time to settle up.

Campsite details everyone has

Save the campground address, a map and photos in the trip, and see who's claimed which site if your group is spread across several — so late arrivals can actually find you.

A look inside

Built for the way groups actually plan

Not a checklist app with people bolted on — a shared trip everyone edits.

Describe the trip. Get a plan to argue about.

The hardest part of a group trip is the blank page. Tell FlockTrot where you're going and for how long, and it drafts a full day-by-day itinerary — transport, a place to stay, meals and activities — so your group starts from something real instead of an empty thread.

  • Ask for changes later, right from the trip or in chat
  • Everything it suggests is editable — nothing is locked in
  • In beta, and switchable off in Settings if it's not for you

List, calendar or map — whichever way your group thinks

Some people want the day as a tidy list. Some want to see the gaps on a calendar. Some just want to know how far the trailhead is from the site. The same itinerary renders three ways, so nobody has to plan in a format that doesn't fit their head.

  • Per-event attendance, so you know who's actually on the hike
  • Weather forecast on each day of the trip
  • Export any plan to your phone's calendar

Nobody brings four coolers and no stove

A shared supplies list the whole trip can see and claim from, with filters for what's still unassigned. Save your own go-to camping gear once as a personal list, and pull it into every trip after that instead of retyping the same packing list every spring.

  • Tag each item to the family or group bringing it
  • Claim meals so two people don't both cook Saturday dinner
  • Filter to what's still unclaimed before you leave

Settle up without the awkward spreadsheet

Log what each person paid for as the trip goes — the reservation, the beer run, the firewood — and split each cost between whoever it actually covers. FlockTrot works the balances out, so the drive home doesn't end in mental arithmetic.

  • Split evenly, by group, or by custom share
  • A running balance of exactly who owes who
  • Works across several families on one trip
The FlockTrot balances screen listing which family owes which, with the amount owed beside each pair after costs were split.
How it works

Three steps to a planned trip

Start the trip

Name it, set the dates and the campground. Or describe the trip and let the AI builder draft the first version of the plan for you.

Invite your crew

Send one link. Everyone who opens it joins the trip — and if they don't have FlockTrot yet, the link walks them through installing it first.

Plan it together

Everyone adds to the itinerary, claims supplies and meals, and logs costs. It all stays in sync — and stays readable offline once you're at the site.

Who it's for

Any trip where more than one person has opinions

FlockTrot is built around camping, but the shared plan works for any group trip.

The annual family camping trip

Several families, one campground, a tradition that's outgrown a group text. Give each family its own group inside the trip, so the supplies list shows who's bringing what without collapsing into one giant undifferentiated list.

A camping weekend with friends

Nobody wants to be the organiser who chases everyone. A shared itinerary and an open supplies list mean people can claim what they're bringing themselves, instead of waiting to be assigned.

Group road trips and cabin weekends

Not camping? Set a hotel or a rental as the stay instead of a campground. The day-by-day itinerary, the shared costs and the group chat all work the same for a road trip, a festival or a beach house.

Family reunions and big group getaways

When the group is too large for everyone to track everyone, per-event attendance shows who's actually coming to the Saturday hike, and expense splitting keeps the shared costs straight between households.

Scouts, clubs and recurring group trips

Save your gear list once and pull it into every trip after that. Trips you've already run stay in Past Trips, so next year's plan starts from what actually worked last time.

First-timers planning a camping trip

If you've never organised one, the AI trip builder gives you a realistic starting plan — meals, drive times, what a day at the site actually looks like — rather than a blank itinerary and a vague sense you've forgotten something.

FAQ

Common questions

Is FlockTrot free?

Yes. FlockTrot is free to download and use on both iPhone and Android. There's no paid tier, no subscription and no ads.

How do I join a camping trip someone invited me to?

Open the invite link the trip organiser sends you. If you already have FlockTrot installed, the link opens the invite directly. If you don't, the page walks you through installing the app first — then you're added to the trip automatically once you open FlockTrot and sign in.

Does everyone in the group need the app?

Everyone who wants to see or edit the shared plan needs FlockTrot, since the itinerary, supplies and expenses all live in the app. It's free on both iPhone and Android, so nobody gets left out because of their phone.

Does FlockTrot work without signal at the campground?

Yes. Once you've opened a trip while you still had a connection, your itinerary, supplies list and campsite details stay available offline. Anything you change syncs back up the next time you have signal.

Can FlockTrot split costs between people on the trip?

Yes. Log shared expenses like campsite fees, firewood or a grocery run, split each one however makes sense for that cost, and FlockTrot works out who owes who so you can settle up at the end of the trip.

Can FlockTrot plan trips that aren't camping?

Yes. FlockTrot is built around camping, but the same shared itinerary, supplies, expenses and chat work for any group trip — a road trip, a cabin weekend, a festival, a family reunion or a beach house. You can set a hotel or rental as the stay instead of a campground.

Can we camp as more than one family or friend group?

Yes. A trip can hold several groups — each family or friend group gets its own group inside the trip, with one shared view of the itinerary and who's bringing what. It's built for the multi-family trip that's outgrown a single list.

How do I delete my account?

In the app: Menu → Camper Profile → Delete Account. See our account deletion page for details on exactly what's removed.
