## What is GlowCamp?

GlowCamp is the travel app for motorhomes, caravans and campervans. It records your drive automatically and colours in a fog map, bit by bit, where you have been: every drive lifts the fog, everything else stays hidden. A diary that almost writes itself and planning tools for your next trip complete it.

What GlowCamp does
• Fog map: every drive lifts the fog on your map, places you have not travelled yet stay hidden. See at a glance where you have been.
• Automatic recording: legs, kilometres and stops without manual work.
• Diary with a daily timeline: places, drives and walks; places and times from your photos as suggestions; evening questions with no required fields.
• Spot for tonight: one tap shows the nearest campsites and motorhome stops, along your route if you like and suited to your motorhome or rig.
• Plan a trip: destinations, nights and route, excursions with departure time and forecast, sights as destinations.
• Dart: picks new destinations, preferably in unexplored areas, also by driving distance.
• Tours from other campers and tours from GlowCamp as inspiration, planned as your own trip with one tap.
• Play your trip and reel with music to share, trip balance and year in review.
• Countdown widget to your next trip.
• Weather and storm warnings (optional): forecast on the day cards, official warnings for your spot.
• My people: fellow travellers and pets, matching packing list suggestions. Your own checklists, vehicle log with maintenance entries.
• Sharing: by private link without an account or with friends (Campfire) using an optional account. You choose what is shared.
• In 8 languages: German, English, French, Italian, Dutch, Spanish, Polish, Czech.

GlowCamp Pro (optional subscription)
• AI trip planner: your dream trip with destinations, sights and suitable places
• AI trip report and diary suggestions from your places
• Unlimited reels, more reel styles, statistics and posters
• Nearby fuel prices (Germany, Austria) and dart extras
• 50 instead of 5 photos per day when sharing, 20% off the travel book
• Family Sharing on iPhone
Everything else stays free: recording, map, diary, checklists and the reel after the trip. AI features are optional, work only with your consent and can be switched off in settings; photos, location and your home are never sent to the AI.

Subscription information
GlowCamp Pro is a subscription (monthly or yearly). Payment is charged to your Apple Account when you confirm the purchase. The subscription renews automatically unless you cancel it at least 24 hours before the end of the current period in your Apple Account settings. You can manage and cancel it there at any time.
Terms of Use: https://glowcamp.de/nutzungsbedingungen.html
Privacy Policy: https://glowcamp.de/datenschutz.html

Privacy
No ads and no third-party tracking. Your trip data stays on your device. Cloud backup (iCloud or Google Drive) is optional and never starts by itself. Only things you trigger or switch on leave the device, for example sharing, backup, AI features and map, place and weather requests. An account is optional and only needed for friends and public tours.

Location note
To keep recording while the screen is locked, GlowCamp needs the “Always” location permission. Without it there are gaps in the diary whenever the phone is locked. The app first asks only for “While Using the App” and explains “Always” separately. Location use in the background can drain the battery faster; GlowCamp adapts recording to your speed to save battery.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.14.3 — 2026-10-25

New features
• Tours everywhere on the map: Tours by other campers and by GlowCamp now also show when you zoom far out; tap one to zoom in. New tours from GlowCamp appear at the top of "Trips" and in the Dart (can be turned off).
• Want to go: Saved places now open the place page with map, contact details and community info. "Mark as visited" takes you straight on.
• Reel: Instead of a number of photos you choose the length (15 s, 30 s, 1 min …) and GlowCamp picks the matching photos.
• Trip book: Before uploading you see how many photos go into the book and can choose them.

Improvements
• "Plan this tour" now opens trip planning directly.
• Reel: For trips added afterwards, the map shows the route between your places, and overnight stays glow as dots. Highlights and Collage are part of GlowCamp Pro; without Pro you see a preview.
