About
Mountain ID helps you identify mountains by pointing your iPhone at them. Names appear overlaid on the landscape through your camera, with distance and elevation when you focus on a peak.
HOW IT WORKS
• Grant location and camera access when prompted
• Stand outdoors with a clear view of the sky and the peaks you want to identify
• Point your phone at the mountains in the distance
• See labels anchored to peaks in augmented reality
WHAT YOU GET
• Real-time mountain names in your camera view
• Distance and elevation for highlighted peaks
• A list of nearby mountains you can browse and adjust
• Search radius and display options in Settings
• Accuracy indicators to help you know when location and compass readings are reliable
BUILT FOR THE OUTDOORS
Mountain ID works best outside with a clear line of sight to peaks. GPS and compass quality improve away from large metal objects and buildings. For the most accurate labels, allow the app a moment to calibrate after you arrive at your viewpoint.
DATA
Mountain information comes from OpenStreetMap community data. Coverage and detail vary by region.
REQUIREMENTS
• iPhone with ARKit support
• Location and camera permissions
• Outdoor use recommended
Mountain ID is a tool for exploration and learning not a substitute for navigation, safety planning, or official mountaineering guidance. Always follow local rules and your own judgment in the backcountry.
