The team behind JetSetter are experts in finding excellent places to go and visit. Their content is superb. The app is beautifully designed and even though you’re not in the market for a luxurious trip somewhere, you’ll enjoy just looking at the photos. Some of the smart aspects of the app include:

  • a stunning view-a-photo-in-360-degrees using the phone’s gyroscope
  • a beautiful way to treat many photos on one page and the way you switch from looking at a photo from small to fullscreen and back again
  • a “Book now”-button that switches text from “Book now” to the actual price every three seconds or so
  • a smart calendar function making it easy to select dates
  • a clever design to facilitate selection of number of rooms and number of guests
Most travel apps focus on finding the cheapest flight or most popular hotel. While this app includes visitors ratings, the focus is much more on inspirational elements. Do you feel like going somewhere beautiful, somewhere romantic, or somewhere exciting? Those questions get higher priority in this app. In my opinion, JetSetter is the best app out there that takes the user from an inspirational perspective to the actual booking.
As I post more app findings, I’ll keep my “Apps”-page updated…
