What's Next Widget

The What's Next widget shows the upcoming assigned places across all days of your trip at a glance — useful for quickly orienting the group before heading out.

The What's Next widget listing the next scheduled activities per day

Where to find it

Open the trip planner → Collab tab. On desktop (window 1024px and wider) the widget appears as a panel alongside Chat, Notes, and Polls. In a narrower window the four panels collapse into a tab bar and it becomes a tab labeled "What's Next". On a phone (under 768px) the mobile trip planner takes over, and its Collab tab only offers Chat, Notes and Polls — the widget is not available there. The Collab addon must be enabled and the What's Next sub-feature must be turned on. See Real-Time-Collaboration.

What it shows

The widget displays the next 8 upcoming place assignments across all trip days, sorted by date and time. Entries are included if they fall on a future day, or if they fall on today and either have no time set (TBD) or have a start time that is still in the future. Past entries are excluded.

Each entry shows:

  • Time — the scheduled start time (or "TBD" if none is set), and the end time if one is set
  • Place name
  • Address — if one is stored on the place
  • Participant chips — the members assigned to this place. If no specific participants are assigned, all trip members are shown instead.

Entries are grouped by date with day headers: Today, Tomorrow, or the formatted weekday and date for further-out days. If a day has a title set, it appears after the date label.

When it updates

The widget reflects the current trip data in real time — when you or another member adds, edits, or removes a day assignment, the list updates automatically without a page refresh.

Requirements

  • Collab addon enabled (admin)
  • What's Next sub-feature enabled (admin)
  • The trip must have days with place assignments that have future dates or times
