I am returning to the Camino for second time and I found this guide to be very helpful and well designed on my first trip My favorite features are the maps elevation charts and albergue listings easy to use and have just the right amount of detail Well done Wise Pilgrim                     Helpful and well designed app and guide Lame update!

I completed my second Camino Frances this past summer and this app was a game changer Not only did it give me comfort along to way but I learned so much more about each town I really appreciated all it added to our walk Will definitely be using the Norte version when I go back                     So detailed and helpful GBartolone

Comments on albergues not working on Frances app     Comments AmandaB1216

I found this app very helpful The reviews on the albergues were great and helped me pick places to stay Elevations were helpful Maps because I was not online did not help me but were helpful to others                     Camino Lady Camino Lady

Tried several Camino apps many had multiple charges for each stage of route or each feature We ended up using just the apps from Wise Pilgrim functional and straightforward even if they didn t have all bells and whistles you might imagine Had all info we needed for the two routes we were on Camino Aragones and Camino Frances The lodging info was generally accurate including phone numbers The map with the active blue dot locator was invaluable especially on the Aragones which is less marked on the ground One note is that as of July 2016 much of the route marked on the ground between Villamayor de Monjardin and Los Arcos is somewhat different closer to the highway than the route marked in the app Eventually they join together again and it s pretty easy to sort out what is going on with the blue dot locator and the map in the app                 Solid app worked well JBS09

Would like to see a landscape display on iPad When you link to a web page it looks better in landscape mode so you wind up rotating the iPad all the time             Could be a bit better agil-k9

Everyone else carried a guide book but with this iOS app no books were necessary and I was grateful to have updated content during my Camino The Comments were indispensable and helped my better ascertain which albergues would be a good fit Also it was a benefit to read other people s reviews of their stay and of their journey I am continually recommending this guide to other pilgrims Thanks for creating such a professional product                     Indespensible Guide shoalsgirl

I lost left my guide book on the train to Pamplona and downloaded this as a replacement Not disappointed in the slightest                     Lost my paper guide delighted with this replacement Skรกk

I am still in my house with good wifi connections and I still can not open the links I was hoping to get something decent for the price that I paid So disappointed     Disappointed 230math

Complete waste of money I found nothing useful here         Not worth it Klr99

I bought this app after my Camino group split up in Burgos and I was left guide less With some heavy pre planning at the albergue I can map out tomorrow s course but it requires taking snapshots of the map and checking other sources for distances A few suggestions 1 I m in Leon This app tells me I am only 245 kilometers from Santiago but every other guide including my Camino Passport puts me at about 300 The difference is worth TWO DAYS of walking distance from current location is useless if it s not Camino distance but as the crow flies 2 The stages should be broken up into 25 30 kilometer sections 30 kilometers is a pretty aggressive day for the average pilgrim but would still be functional for planning Most guides follow a 20 24k plan It would be helpful if this guide had similar stages Also the total stage distance should be shown on the stages page 3 A distance calculator would be very helpful It would help with planning if I could enter the names of cities and receive a total distance Or if I could enter a start point and a kilometer total and receive an end point or the nearest city with an albergue 4 The map is the best feature on this app Please make it accessible offline You re off to a great start please keep up the good work             A good start but not well organized Jedidiah1225

I m on the road right now trying to use this app without a data plan I am relying on wifi at albergues and bars for my iphone and ipad First of all this app has a lot of info That s great But it s hard to use because there is just so much and at times it s confusing I would like to suggest the following Quick links ability to bookmark albergues stages Cacheable maps Distance so you can take a look a town or a stage easily Ability to leave notes about a town stage to give the heads up to pilgrims Ability to download latests notes for a stage you are looking at so you can make the right choice for albergues if you have a choice Maps to point out route changes more clearly             Some additional features would make this more useful hanabatake.com

Has all the information you need                     Extremely Helpful Torsotronik

No review the proof is in the pudd n                     Fantastic Tinker135

Had everything needed and more It even included old and closed albergues which saved me a bit of unnecessary walking at the end of the day I will carry it next year when I walk the second half                     Had everything needed and more Mamatravels

Downloaded latest upgrade onto my iPhone 4s App now doesn t work When trying to access Albergue info app immediately closes     Not working on iOS 7 1 CDozer

There is a lot of information in the app but the route isn t broken down into stages and every time I try to look at detailed information for the various options for lodging the app crashes every time NOT worth the money         Camino Franc s Dgtemplin

Program keeps re booting whenever you try to access anything It is worse than completely useless A total waste of money this is the first app I have ever given a negative review     Does not work Mississippi Joe

Have gotten no response from Wise Pilgrim support but did see another posting from another user with the same issues i have As installed all the lodging information is absent If you try to update that stage your iPhone just hangs Also I see no directions nor do I see a useful map only an elevation profile like the Astorga profile shown in the 3rd screen pic above The artwork is beautiful and I m hoping this app could be my walking guide I ve tried at least 5 or 6 times over about 3 weeks plus left messages with the support page with no response Perhaps the developer has had a major crisis It s a great concept Here s hoping the issues get resolved     Doesn t Update Missing Key Info CO Chuck

In an effort to lighten my backpack on the Camino de Santiago I reluctantly left my guidebook at home and instead installed several iPhone apps including the Wise Pilgrim Camino Frances app I rarely used any other app and found this had virtually everything I needed I used it to calculate how far I might walk where I might stay and what to see along the way It did not have a ton of information but I preferred to not over plan my pilgrimage Several pilgrim friends would come to me to ask where to stay in particular villages Overall excellent value and I would definitely use it again and keep the guidebook at home                 My only Guidebook Camino Peregrina
