Leave a Review Iceland Road Guide
App doesn’t work!
We have downloaded it multiple times and it always says it can’t download because if a recipient issue. Have also tried on multiple phones. It’s super disappointing.Priceless tool while traveling in Iceland
We received a wonderful printed map in the welcome bag from our travel agent. The cover referenced this app and gave a special code to use to get all of the benefits. However when I clicked “upgrade” it happened automatically, no code or payment required. I can see how it would be challenging to use for advance trip planning (although the links to EVERY little guest house, hotel and activity provider were impressive) but once in Iceland and on the road, you can easily click on all nearby icons as you drive along and get details you can’t find anywhere else. It greatly added to the enjoyment of my trip to this amazing country.Show lessWhat’s the point?
You can’t search by category, it does not show small roads, and it does not use English names. It just covers the island with meaningless icons. And if you move around the app and tap an icon, when you’re done reading it takes you back to your current location, making it useless as a trip planner.
Since you must have cellular to use this app, you’re better off just using google or apple maps. B/c you won’t find anything with this app - it’ll just leave you confused.
For example: did you know Skaftafell is known for its “extensive birch woods; rich vegetation”? This app won’t tell you that, you know, maybe people come for the glacier?Show less
