Tips

  • Compare map distance with real travel time before committing to a plan.
  • Leave extra time for queues, worship, photography rules, and seasonal crowds.
  • Confirm final transit and walking routes with a current navigation app.

Troubleshooting

  • If Journey Chat gives weak suggestions, add clearer dates, cities, route names, or saved places.
  • If visit history is incomplete, check whether the place was saved or marked visited in the right journey.
  • If route order matters, compare the app route with the official pilgrimage route before traveling.

Privacy, accuracy, or availability notes

  • Journeys and AI suggestions are planning aids; verify dates, routes, hours, and access before traveling.
  • Saved places and visit history can reveal travel patterns if shared publicly.
  • Formal pilgrimage route order and temple numbering should be checked against official route sources when accuracy matters.
