Summary:In the current generation, people are more into traveling more than ever. They like to record their experiences in places they had been to; share their experiences through telling their tales. Today, mobile devices are mostly their means of recording (storing) those experiences. Mobile applications can be used such as; photo/video albums, note takers, and a social media application of their preference. The objective of the study is to develop a mobile app that will guide travelers and will promote the different tourist destinations in the Philippines. PhilTrip will be a mobile application that is specifically for those who are eager, passionate, and enthusiastic about traveling in the Philippines. The proposed mobile application will enable the travelers (users) to share their travel experiences all the while promoting the destinations and the Philippines itself.
