Trippie: The Airport Appv2.2.1

Released December 19, 2024Major

iOS

The recent major content update yielded a minor rating increase of +0.05 stars on iOS, bringing the post-update average to 3.0 stars. While the release successfully removed mandatory social media registration barriers, it failed to deliver a competitive mapping alternative due to persistent user interface glitches and missing major hubs. The net verdict is neutral, as a small post-update sample size of 11 reviews limits the statistical reliability of the observed rating delta.
