Key Takeaways

  • A recap reel is generated from your existing itinerary, no editing or uploading.
  • Jettova curates destination-specific photos and paces them into a short vertical video.
  • The video renders on your device, so it's fast and private.
  • The day after a trip, Jettova nudges you that your recap is ready to make and share.
  • Available from the trip detail screen on web, iOS, and Android.

The best souvenir from a trip is the one you'll actually share. Jettova's recap reel turns the itinerary you already built into a short, vertical highlight video, the kind of clip that belongs on TikTok, Reels, or your group chat — without you opening a video editor.

It works from the trip you already have. Jettova takes your destination and the activities on your itinerary and curates a sequence of striking, destination-specific photos, paced into a short reel with clean motion and titles. There's no upload step and no manual editing: the trip is the input, the reel is the output.

The video is rendered on your own device rather than on a server, which keeps it fast and private. The frames are assembled locally and handed to you ready to save or share. From there it's a normal share sheet: post it, send it, or download it.

Recaps are also the most natural moment to bring people back to Jettova. The day after your trip ends, Jettova can nudge you that your recap is ready — memories are fresh, you're home, and turning the trip into a clip takes one tap. A shared recap is also how friends discover Jettova in the first place, which is rather the point: the best ad for a travel app is a friend's actual trip.

Like the rest of Jettova, the recap experience lives on the web, iPhone, and Android, working from the same saved trips. Whether you planned solo or built the trip with a group room, the recap is available from the trip's detail screen.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to upload my own photos for a recap?
No. Jettova builds the reel from your trip's destination and activities, curating photos automatically. You can share the result as-is. It's designed to be one tap from finished trip to shareable clip.
When does Jettova suggest making a recap?
The day after your trip's end date, when the memories are fresh. You can also make a recap any time from the trip's detail screen.
