2.0.1

January 25, 2017

## 2.0.1 bug fixes for major release. Fixed timer problem on walk trial (now full 30mins). Fixed crashing on attempt to purchase subscription in app. ## If you have purchased walks on the old app please go 'update' page and tap 'Restore Purchases' to mark the walks you have already purchased as ready to download. -- this also works to update subscriptions on each of your iOS devices. Whole new version and nicer design, re-built from the ground up. By far the biggest feature request I have had is to get rid of the individual purchase per walk. Now you will find a much simpler, lower cost annual (or monthly) subscription that gives you access to all the walks. If you have purchased walks on the old app, they will be restored on this new version, even if you don't get the annual subscription. You will also find nice new and easier to read topographic maps. The walks summary page has more helpful information as well. You can still download shorter walks for free, and try any walk for 30 minutes, if you don't pay the subscription.

January 11, 2017

### Sorry -- there are a few significant bugs in this release. Unfortunately, the app was accidentally released in test mode wich means the 30 min test timer expires in 30 seconds. There are a few other bugs that cause the app to crash as well. Plan to do a new release for Friday or Saturday -- probably best to wait. Whole new version and nicer design, re-built from the ground up. By far the biggest feature request I have had is to get rid of the individual purchase per walk. Now you will find a much simpler, lower cost annual (or monthly) subscription that gives you access to all the walks. If you have purchased walks on the old app, they will be restored on this new version, even if you don't get the annual subscription. You will also find nice new and easier to read topographic maps. The walks summary page has more helpful information as well. You can still download shorter walks for free, and try any walk for 30 minutes, if you don't pay the subscription.

1.2.0

January 16, 2014

Upgraded for iOS7

1.1

December 12, 2012

Updated for iPhone5 and iOS6. Huge improved performance when downloading a new Walk List & checking for price updates. This was causing the app to look like it had crashed. Actual walk prices are now in the initial database (A bug meant they where displaying high - a bit randomly). Improved feedback at start of "Buy" (purchase) so you are not left wondering if the purchase has started or not. Assorted small bug fixes.

Reviews of Wildwalks

  • Website is great! App is just OK.

    First let’s talk about the good stuff:

    The hikes on this app are extremely well documented with fantastic info about each walk. Bravo to the team who put this together. I found WildWalks first through their website and started printing out their guides before every hike. It’s a huge amount of work putting together detailed guides like this. Truly amazing. Thank you. The app is a good resource if you want a pocket version of the site.

    Now the bad stuff:

    I was surprised to see that you can’t see your GPS location on the downloaded maps as you’re going on a hike. This seems like the main promise of a mobile maps app and not very difficult to implement on a technical level. It’s a weird omission.

    If you’re at a trailhead with multiple trails coming off it it’s sometimes difficult to tell which guide you should download. This is important because the guides are large files and wilderness locations often have poor connectivity.

    There also isn’t a tab for easy access to tracks that you’ve already downloaded. This means you have to scroll through long lists to find a walk every time. It doesn’t load well if you’re offline either.

    All up, it’s a great service and I’m happy to have pitched in a few dollars for a truly helpful resource. I just wish the app was a bit better developed so it could be more helpful. I think this could be a very successful service with a bit more work.
  • Essential for exploring the Sydney region

    I hope they continue to add to the app and the trail database. I've found lots of fantastic weekend bush walks with Wildwalks.
  • A good start

    I like the concept, but the app fails to deliver. First, what's up with the pay-per-trail in app purchases? Seems greedy, why would I pay for info I can get for free. Second, lots of trails are missing, lots! Third, the button that locates you via gps is bugged. Would happily pay $3 for working app with full list of trails.
