We all know the feeling of racing through the airport with one hand on our luggage, and the other holding a coffee, passport, cell phone, child’s hand, or all the above. It can be challenging to look up details like your gate number when you need to unlock your phone by typing in a passcode or removing your mask to use Face ID.
Thankfully, TripIt has introduced a series of widgets for iOS—including our newest, the TripIt Lock Screen widget for iOS—to help you better anticipate what comes next when you’re on the go.
Introducing the TripIt Lock Screen widget for iOS
Today, Apple released iOS 16, enabling iPhone users to add widgets to the Lock Screen. TripIt is proud to be among the first to offer a Lock Screen widget.
