Hi HN! I've always wanted a simple app to just track my flights and see how they look on a map. I know there are a lot of apps out there for this, but most of them make the process of loading flights really slow and require you to create an account. I wanted to focus mainly on these two issues and make it really simple and quick to load flights: just the mandatory origin and destination, you can add the rest of the flight details later if you want. You can also use it offline, basically as a "calculator" if you just want to quickly see data on a single flight route. On top of that, there's a…

Hey HN, My co-founders and I have been building GridTravel, a free iOS app for planning and sharing travel routes with turn-by-turn GPS nav. We just launched yesterday after App Store approval.

Features: - Calendar-based day tracking per country. - Schengen 90/180 and other visa “runways”. - Fiscal residency day counts and alerts. - Optional background location logging (battery-efficient, never overwrites manual data). - Photo import using metadata only (no image access). - On-device “Fiscal Oracle” using…

Hey HN, This is a follow-up to our original Show HN post, where I launched the first version of MBCompass. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44155741 Since then, I've added several features based on user feedback and community input...
