In recent years, smartphones have become ubiquitous, and various apps have turned mobile devices into key platforms for users to access information and entertainment. Even travel-related information needed during holidays can be obtained through apps. The free, comprehensive travel app “365 Taiwan Travel Calendar,” planned by MOOK Scenic Spots Family Travel Life Network, topped the iPhone travel app charts just three days after its launch, showing that using travel apps to handle all aspects of travel has gradually become a trend. This free, all-in-one travel app provides the latest information on festivals, cultural and art performances, food, and accommodation across Taiwan. It also allows users to search for the hottest local activities nearby via location tracking, as well as save favorites for quick access and ongoing tracking.

“365 Taiwan Travel Calendar” covers a wide range of information from all over Taiwan, including travel, music, exhibitions, festivals, performances, family-friendly activities, food, accommodation, shopping, and other hot events. Users can browse events by category—such as latest, most popular, status, or trending—to get the newest updates right away. They can also filter activities by date, type, region, or search for specific events using keywords. Events can be added to personal calendars, and on the event info page, users can tap the icon next to the event time to set reminders. Tapping icons for event addresses or transportation info will link to maps and help plan routes.

Additionally, the app’s map search feature allows users to locate the nearest events via their phone's GPS, with options to display results by list or distance. The “favorites” function not only lets you bookmark events you care about, but also categorizes them into “ongoing” and “not yet started” for instant updates on their status. This travel app is jointly launched by Good Mobile Team under Cite Publishing Media and the Scenic Spots Family website under Mook Publishing. Currently, only the iPhone version is available.
