How to use AdventureLog
Welcome to AdventureLog! This guide will help you get started with AdventureLog and provide you with an overview of the features available to you.
Key Terms
Adventures
- Adventure: think of an adventure as a point on a map, a location you want to visit, or a place you want to explore. An adventure can be anything you want it to be, from a local park to a famous landmark.
- Visit: a visit is added to an adventure. It contains a date and notes about when the adventure was visited. If an adventure is visited multiple times, multiple visits can be added. If there are no visits on an adventure or the date of all visits is in the future, the adventure is considered planned. If the date of the visit is in the past, the adventure is considered completed.
- Category: a category is a way to group adventures together. For example, you could have a category for parks, a category for museums, and a category for restaurants.
- Tag: a tag is a way to add additional information to an adventure. For example, you could have a tag for the type of cuisine at a restaurant or the type of art at a museum. Multiple tags can be added to an adventure.
- Image: an image is a photo that is added to an adventure. Images can be added to an adventure to provide a visual representation of the location or to capture a memory of the visit. These can be uploaded from your device or with a service like Immich if the integration is enabled.
- Attachment: an attachment is a file that is added to an adventure. Attachments can be added to an adventure to provide additional information, such as a map of the location or a brochure from the visit.
Collections
- Collection: a collection is a way to group adventures together. Collections are flexible and can be used in many ways. When no start or end date is added to a collection, it acts like a folder to group adventures together.

With start and end dates, the collection is transformed into a full itinerary with a map showing the route taken between adventures.

- Note: a note is a collection exclusive feature that allows you to add notes to your trip. This can be used to add additional information about your trip, such as a summary of the trip or a list of things to do. Notes can be assigned to a specific day of the trip to help organize the information.
- Checklist: a checklist is a collection exclusive feature that allows you to add a checklist to your trip.
