Mass Delete Your Saved Places and Trips on TripAdvisor

Years of bookmarked hotels and half-planned Trips sit in your account whether the vacation happened or not. Redact clears them in one run and keeps a local copy on your device first, so the plans leave TripAdvisor without leaving you.

Whole Trips, not individual saves

TripAdvisor keeps your saved places inside Trips, and that is the unit Redact deletes. It lists your Trips and removes each one as a list, rather than unsaving places one at a time.

Why clear your saves and Trips

Your Trip lists are a travel diary you never decided to keep

A list of saved hotels says where you are going before you have gone, and old lists never clean themselves up.

01

Saves map your plans

A list of saved hotels and restaurants says where you are going before you have gone. That is useful while you are planning and unnecessary baggage on your account once you are back.

02

Trip lists become a travel diary

List by list, your Trips record every getaway you have planned for years, tied to your account. It is a diary you never decided to keep.

03

They never clean themselves up

A shortlist from 2017 sits in your account until you remove it yourself. Old saves do not expire, they accumulate into clutter that hides the lists you actually use.

04

Unsaving is slower than saving

One tap put each place on a list. Getting it off means opening every list and removing entries one by one, then deleting the empty shells left behind.

What this feature does

Redact clears Trips, list by list

Tick Saved places (Trips) under Content Types and Redact loads the Trips on your account rather than the individual places inside them. Deleting one removes the whole list in a single call, which is how TripAdvisor stores your saves in the first place.

A Trip has no date of its own, so Redact dates it by the most recently added item in the list. That is deliberately preservation-safe: a Trip you added something to last week is not caught by an "older than" filter, even if the list itself was created years ago. A Trip with no dated items at all is treated as undated and is left out of any date-filtered run entirely, so it can never be swept up by accident. To clear those, run without a date range.

Text Content matches a Trip's title and description, and Place Name matches the Trip's own title. Preview before you run, and keep the archiver on for your own copy.

Filter before you delete

Clear the lists you are done with

The filters read a Trip's own fields: its title, its description, and the dates of the items inside it.

Date range

A Trip is dated by the most recent item added to it, so a range clears the lists you have genuinely stopped touching and leaves anything with recent activity alone.

Undated Trips are skipped

A Trip with no dated items is treated as undated and excluded from any date-filtered run. Run without a date range if you want those cleared too.

Text Content to delete

Only delete Trips whose title or description contains one of your words, so one destination's plans come off and the rest stay.

Text Content to preserve

Always keep the lists you are still using by putting a word from their title or description on the preserve list.

Place Name

For a Trip, the place name is the Trip's own title, so this filter matches the list name itself.

Run it your way

Clear the lists at your own pace

Preview

Check the itinerary before it goes. Every Trip that matches, shown before anything is cleared.

Deletion

Empty the whole shelf in one pass. Redact clears every matched list while you watch it happen.

Review and Delete

Sort the lists by hand first. The honeymoon ideas can stay, the 2019 layover plans can go.

Schedule

Spring cleaning that runs itself. Lists that age into your rules clear on whatever cadence you set.

Step-by-step guide

How to clear your TripAdvisor saved places with Redact

Pick the lists, check what matched, keep a copy, then clear them. Trips come off as whole lists.

  1. 1

    Download Redact for free

    Install Redact on your computer. It runs on Windows, macOS, and Linux.

    Download for your device →
  2. 2

    Connect your TripAdvisor account

    Open Redact, choose TripAdvisor, and sign in. The session is created on your own machine and used to talk to TripAdvisor directly, so your login never touches a Redact server.

  3. 3

    Tick Saved places (Trips) and set your filters

    Under Content Types, tick Saved places (Trips) and untick Reviews if you only want the lists cleared. Then narrow the batch, or leave the filters blank to queue every Trip on the account.

    • Date range: matched against the most recently added item in each list. Trips with no dated items are left out of a date-filtered run.
    • Text Content to delete: words from a Trip's title or description.
    • Text Content to preserve: the lists you are still planning around.
    • Place Name: matches a Trip's own title.

    Good to know: a Trip whose most recent activity falls inside the last 30 days is free to delete. Reaching back to lists you stopped touching years ago needs a paid plan, which is where most saved Trips sit.

  4. 4

    Preview the lists

    Run a preview and Redact shows exactly which Trips are queued, before anything is touched. Remember that each row is a whole list, not a single saved place.

  5. 5

    Archive, then clear them

    Leave the archiver on so a copy of each list is written to your device first, then start the run.

    Heads up: deleting a Trip removes the entire list and everything saved inside it. There is no undo, so make sure the preview looks right.

Your plans stay on your machine

Redact runs on your device and talks to TripAdvisor directly from there. Your login and your Trip lists never pass through a Redact server, and the archive copies are written to your own disk before anything is cleared.
