### 5/5 — Amazing App

*2026-08-25*

This app is exactly what I’ve been looking for. It’s so hard to find vacancy at the PP campgrounds and this app does all the work for you. It is very user friendly, convenient and informative.

### 5/5 — Works Great!

*2026-08-24*

After spending too much time barely missing campsites with Parks Canada, signed up for Pro. Given that sites book in under 5 minutes in Banff, Jasper and Yoho, this seemed to be the only way to go. I went from missing pretty much every site to having some choices. Also neat you can see how long it took for sites to book.

### 5/5 — 10/10 recommend

*2026-08-18*

I was able to nab three different camping cancellations this summer using this app. The app is easy to use, and for more spots to watch for, the fee is very affordable.

### 5/5 — Brilliant App

*2026-05-22*

Exactly what I was looking for. Alerts you to cancelled  campsites as soon as they come available. You can pick the sites to watch and the dates. Well done.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.6.3 — 2026-08-29

• Day Use alerts for Parks Canada. Watch parking time slots at Bruce Peninsula's Grotto and Cape Breton's Skyline Trail, or shuttle seats to Lake Louise and Moraine Lake, and pick the exact slots and days you want on a booking-style grid.
• Michigan and Florida state parks are here! Michigan State Parks brings 127 parks — campgrounds, cabins, marinas, equestrian sites and Porcupine Mountains backcountry routes — and Florida State Parks adds 60 more, bookable without leaving the app.

### 1.5.23 — 2026-08-20

Backcountry alerts are here! Pick a multi-night backcountry trip — 100+ curated traverses across Parks Canada, BC Parks, Ontario Parks, Nova Scotia and Algonquin Highlands — and we watch every night of it, then tell you by push, email or text the moment the whole itinerary is bookable. Book it without leaving the app: we fill in the dates and add each night for you. We are expanding in the US: California, New York, Texas, Oregon and Utah State Parks. We've also polished campground maps with richer detail, deeper zoom, and amenity legends, made site pickers smoother, and squashed the usual bugs. Enjoy!

### 1.4.9 — 2026-07-15

Expanding to US campgrounds! Browse and set alerts on Recreation.gov national forests and federal sites and Washington State Parks, including new Boat and Equestrian camping. Plus a new "your chances" estimator that shows how likely you are to catch a cancellation before you create an alert, smarter campground site pickers, and the usual bug fixes and polish.

### 1.3.1 — 2026-06-09

Search for parks by voice command with our new voice search, plus more parks to explore — along with bug fixes and performance improvements.

### 1.2.9 — 2026-05-28

• Smoother campground map switcher: cover-flow carousel with synced mini-map and colour crossfade as you swipe between maps in a park.
• Smoother campground map control: easier pinch/pan even when there are multiple campgrounds.
• Bug fix: site selection on the site map picker for parks with multiple campgrounds — picks now correctly stick to the site's own campground.
