## What is iOverlander?

iOverlander is a mapping app to help travelers find camping and accommodation worldwide - no matter how remote your destination.

Only real places by real travelers.
Unbiased and never sponsored. There is no list or robot that can ever replace what a traveler says standing right there in that spot. Typos and all, we believe the best data comes from overlanders onsite.

No signal? No problem. 
The best places on this planet don’t have cell signal. All our data is stored on your phone, so you can plan your day without wifi. Download offline maps of entire states and countries, that give you all the tiny alleys, building footprints, and small landmarks to make travel easier. 

Campsites are just the beginning. 
Mechanics, restaurants, hotels, propane, water, wifi, shopping, laundry, showers, doctors, tourist attractions, border crossings, warnings, checkpoints, insurance, storage, shipping, consulates, banks, and more.

Moderated by overlanders, not AI.
Our moderators have spent a collective century on the road and 30,000 hours moderating entries. They’re not planning to stop anytime soon.

But wait, there's more!
In addition to finding places, you can add new ones, leave reviews, save favorites, and share places with other travelers. Subscribe to iOverlander Pro or Unlimited to download offline maps, access satellite maps, BLM and USFS overlays, save filters, search and more!

Wherever you're headed, we've got your next destination.

### 1/5 — Nooo bueno

*2026-08-15, version 2.6.40*

Welp- forced to download this version since the devs bricked version 1 which just flat out worked….    For an app that was built from crowdsourcing  they really have some nerve charging a 100$ a year for access.   Should have offered discounts to everyone that ‘made this ‘ app what it is now .  new version is paywalled beyond belief - not as snappy on low cell service either. Such a loss

### 1/5 — WARNING! DO NOT PURCHASE!

*2026-08-15, version 2.6.40*

Used to be free open source app where people could put this kind of information onto it for all people to access. Now the owners have come along, taken all of this information and put a paywall behind it. This information is from the people for the people, you did nothing create the dataset that you now charge for it isn’t yours to sell. Stop with the greed! Stop putting useless leeches at the intersection of every human interface! Let the people have freedom of discourse and information sharing!

### 1/5 — Still sub par

*2026-08-11, version 2.6.40*

I have not used this app in a year. I tried it again and cannot believe they made it worse. Forget about using your phone. Every time you zoom in on a street name or town name, it stays so small you cannot read it. I tried it with and iPad, same deal. You can no longer use the search function without paying. Not worth the money even free.

### 2/5 — Hard to read

*2026-08-08, version 2.6.40*

I tried the app. I’m a senior citizen with weak eyes.  Couldn’t read even with reading glasses.  Fonts stay extremely small even when zooming.  Some names seem to disappear when zooming in.

### 1/5 — No longer useful

*2026-08-05, version 2.6.40*

This used to be the go-to app for Overlanders. No longer, it’s expensive and the interface is confusing and doesn’t really seem to work anymore. Sad, I’ve used it all over and contributed check ins which hopefully have helped others, no longer unfortunately.

### 3/5 — Great app, kinda…

*2026-08-01, version 2.6.38*

I find this app 10x more useful than the many “free” camping apps I’ve downloaded before. As a full timer, a lot of these hidden gems are better than paid campgrounds and state parks. Sites are reviewed more often and more recently too, giving me peace of mind that I won’t waste gas hunting out a dead location. So thanks to the community for that!

As for the app, it’s a mess!!! Favorites list never populates. I have to zoom in on the map and look for the hearts. I paid for annual unlimited, but having to download everything à la carte seems counterintuitive. A lot of the features are just buggy. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t. And I don’t like the lack of privacy. I have a very unique name and a very public online profile and now I’m hesitant to leave any kind of review out update for fear of someone noticing it’s me.

Still a staple for a full time nomad but I hate having to muddle through the mess. As a developer myself, I know for a fact it wouldn’t take too much effort to fix the UI features at least. Even Claude can vibe code something a bit more functional than this 🫤

### 1/5 — Horrible app now

*2026-07-31, version 2.6.38*

The new app makeover sucks. The format is horrible and everything has a paywall now. Once a great app now its useless.

### 1/5 — Scam Ads

*2026-07-30, version 2.6.38*

In trying to edit a site I was presented with a clock here to continue button which opened a scam website trying to convince me it was apple telling me my phone was infected and tried to open the dialer

### 3/5 — Great Info/Horrendous Interface

*2026-07-25, version 2.6.38*

The campsite and information in this App is awesome. The real issue is the map. For example, I’m in the Yukon and cities/towns are few and far between. The only way to find a town is to zoom all the way in and scroll down the road until you find the town you are looking for. It’s exhausting. Bigger labels when you are looking at a provence or state could cut your search time in half.

### 1/5 — O pior aplicativo que já usei

*2026-07-22*

Me senti roubado ao ser descontado ainda no período de teste. Viajamos pela Argentina e Chile mas esse app não repassou nenhum local seguro para passar a noite. Fuja enquanto é tempo

**Developer response:** Obrigado pelo feedback. Sentimos muito pela experiência. Temos muitos lugares na Argentina e no Chile — pode ser que algum filtro esteja impedindo que apareçam. Vale a pena verificar as configurações de filtro. Quanto à cobrança, reembolsos de assinaturas feitas pela App Store precisam ser solicitados diretamente à Apple em reportaproblem.apple.com. Qualquer dúvida, fala com a gente: support@ioverlander.com.
