## What is Boondockr?

Log free camping spots, campsites and van life stays, even with no signal. Share finished stays with campers you follow, and keep your 14-day limit in view.

KNOW THE RULES BEFORE YOU SETTLE IN
Boondockr tells you who manages each spot — BLM, National Forest, National Park, State or private — and the general stay rules, right next to your days-left countdown. It's auto-detected from public-lands data, works offline once logged, and always reminds you to check the posted sign for the exact local limit.

YOUR 14-DAY LIMIT, ALWAYS IN VIEW
The dispersed-camping clock runs on your spot card, home-screen widget, Live Activity and Apple Watch, so you always know how many days you've got left before it's time to move on.

OFFLINE-FIRST, PRIVATE BY DEFAULT
Everything lives on your device. Log the GPS, cell bars, road and level rating, photos and notes for every pull-off and quiet corner that worked — your own map, kept offline.

SHARE ONLY WHEN YOU'RE READY
Follow other campers and see the spots they share — and share your own, only after you've moved on. Boondockr never shows where you are right now.

BRING YOUR SPOTS WITH YOU
Import your existing pins (CSV, GPX and GeoJSON) in a tap.

PACK SMART, CAMP SMART
An offline packing checklist for the essentials, plus Solar Potential — see whether a spot will charge your batteries before you commit, season- and elevation-aware, no signal needed.

GO FURTHER WITH PRO
• Offline map downloads for the areas you roam
• Sun & shade intelligence for every spot
• Move-on reminders and custom stay limits
• Unlimited photos and GPX/CSV export

Free forever to log, count down and import. Pro adds the deeper tools when you want them.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.10.0 — 2026-11-01

Know the rules before you settle in. Boondockr now shows who manages each spot — BLM, National Forest, National Park, State and more — and the general stay rules right next to your days-left countdown and on your Live Activity. Auto-detected from public-lands data, works offline, and always points you to the posted sign for the exact local limit.

• Set the land manager yourself any time from Edit.
• Fixes and polish.

### 1.9.0 — 2026-10-07

Solar Potential — see if a spot will charge your batteries before you commit. Offline, season- and elevation-aware.
• Richer imports — altitude now comes across from your CSV.
• Fixes and polish.

### 1.8.0 — 2026-09-24

Introducing Community — Boondockr's biggest update.

• Follow other travellers and see the campsites they've shared, right on your map.
• Share your own spots with the people who follow you — but only after you've moved on. Boondockr never reveals where you are right now.
• Tap any shared spot to save it to your private journal.

Your journal is still 100% private and offline. Community is completely opt-in — sign in with Apple only if you want to join. Report and block tools keep it respectful.

### 1.7.0 — 2026-09-21

Boondockr now speaks your language. The whole app is available in Spanish and Portuguese — map, journal, packing and all. Plus fixes and polish.

### 1.6.0 — 2026-09-20

Now for camping everywhere.

Campsites worldwide: turn on the new Campsites layer to discover spots near you — anywhere on Earth — from OpenStreetMap, cached so they still show offline. Tap any pin to save it straight to your private journal.

Made for the world: we've softened the US-specific wording, and the US public-land, forest-road and wildfire layers are now a toggle in Settings (on in the US, off elsewhere — flip it anytime).

Your own finds still stay private — discovery gets you there, your journal keeps them. Plus fixes and polish.
