Vacay is an iPhone travel-planning app for discovering places and turning favorites into editable, day-by-day itineraries. Users swipe right on spots they like and left on others, while the app shapes selected places around preferences such as hiking, adventure, shopping, and fine dining. Plans show each day by time and location, include maps, and can be edited. Users can build custom itineraries, track their days, and return to saved plans; the site says itinerary creation is unlimited. Vacay also provides expert-created itineraries and curated restaurants, activities, landmarks, and local favorites for ideas. The App Store listing offers free curated itineraries and labels the app free with in-app purchases. Paid choices include 9.99 USD per month, 49.99 USD per year billed as 4.17 USD per month, and 29.99 USD once for lifetime access; additional unlimited monthly and yearly plans are listed at the same recurring prices. The app requires iOS 18 or later and is iPhone-only. Apple’s listing says the developer indicates no data collection, while noting that Apple has not verified this disclosure.
