Frequently asked questions

How do I sign in?

YouLocal uses your phone number. Enter it, and we send a one-time code by SMS to log you in — no password to remember. We support phone numbers from over 100 countries.

What can I do with YouLocal?

YouLocal is your AI travel concierge, Yori. You can chat with Yori to plan and adapt trips (organised into Travel Spaces), get personalised, locally-grounded suggestions for places nearby, view your stops on a map and get directions, receive real-time disruption alerts for your trip, and book real-world experiences, stays and flights.

Which languages does the app support?

Italian, English, German, French and Spanish. You can change the language anytime in Settings.

How does location and visit tracking work? Can I turn it off?

When you enable it, YouLocal can detect when you arrive at the stops on your trip — including in the background — so Yori can send timely tips and improve your suggestions. You're always in control: turn it off anytime in Settings → Location monitoring (and the separate Visit tracking toggle). On Android, an ongoing notification shows while tracking is active.

What notifications will I receive, and how do I manage them?

Depending on what you opt into: booking confirmations and reminders, "your itinerary is ready", disruption alerts (e.g. flight/weather), and helpful location-based nudges. You can switch each type on or off in Settings → Notifications.

Can I get my itinerary by email?

Yes. From an itinerary you can export a PDF and have it emailed to you, in your chosen language, with a download link.

How are bookings and payments handled?

Bookings of real-world experiences, stays and flights are processed securely through our payment provider, Stripe. YouLocal doesn't store your full card details. Cancellation and refund terms are those of the provider you book with.

How do I delete my account and data?

Open the app, go to your Profile and tap Delete account. This permanently erases your profile, trips, conversations, payment references and connected accounts. The action is immediate and can't be undone.

What data do you collect, and where is it kept?

We collect what's needed to run the service — your phone number and profile, your trips and conversations with Yori, and (only if you enable it) location to power nearby suggestions and visit detection. Data is stored securely on AWS in the EU. See our Privacy Policy for the full picture.

I'm a local with great knowledge — can I join?

Yes! We're building a community of real local insiders. Use the form on our home page or write to community@youlocal.app.
