What's New in KrugerExplorer

2.1.0

October 18, 2022

Version 2 is here – immerse yourself even further in the wonder that is Kruger! We’re very excited to add a lot of new content and functionality to this update: - Bird audio! There are now over 500 stunning bird call files in the App, showcasing the magical sounds of the bush and helping you learn the many calls and songs you might encountered in Kruger. - Live location map: By popular request we have added a live GPS tracking map with downloadable offline maps and the works fully offline, so you will always be able to see your live location. Visit the 'Download offline files for Live Location Maps' page in the Maps menu for detailed instructions. - Your Sightings update: You can now export your sightings to a CSV file, meaning you can use the sightings in many different ways, such as recording a single trip, a single day or even individual game drives, while storing and maintaining your history of sightings however you like in a spreadsheet. Head to the Welcome section and the _Start here: How to use KrugerExplorer_ for a detailed explanation of the new Your Sightings functionality. - Improved navigation with a menu function that is always available and the option to go back to the 'Last viewed route' so you can quickly skip between species profiles and the guided route you are following. - Smaller tweaks include adding image labels to quickly explain whether a profile photo is male, female, juvenile etc, new profiles for Kruger’s remote bushveld camps, recent updates to the vagrant bird sightings in the park, hundreds of new images for the mammals and in particular the birds, and a few little bug fixes. We hope you enjoy exploring these new additions! Best regards, Danny & Charlotte

Error

Beautifully presented app but when I try to tick certain animals it cuts out and I have to restart

Limited functionality, beautiful app

I downloaded the app for the rave reviews about offline maps, etc.

Yes the maps are offline, but there is no live navigation function (ie, you cannot set a route and follow it, your location is imposed over a static map)

That said, the typical routes are described, and this is more akin a book, albeit with your live location pinned to the page.

We started logging our sightings. We finished the mammals, but halfway into the birds, after using this app only 30mins, it has started crashing. iPhone 16, latest updates, no reason for this to happen.

Leaving disappointed.

App failed

Was initially great. Downloaded maps, but the failed day 1 of our trip. Wouldn’t open. Tried to reload whilst in Kruger and back in UK. Nothing

Kruger on your hand

Excellent app! Highly recommend!!!

Excellent!!

We have just returned to the UK after 11 nights in the Kruger. I found this app really useful for navigating the loop roads (I downloaded the live location map before we left). The loop roads can be quite confusing when using the park maps, but this app made it so easy. I also loved how it gave more detailed descriptions of the camps and accommodation- much more detail than on the San Parks website. I need an app like this for Etosha next… thank you!! :-)
