What's New in RiverApp

6.1.1

August 20, 2026

-> The map has been completely redesigned and now uses vector tiles: instead of being simple images, map elements adapt as you zoom. The result is faster loading and text that always stays sharper and easier to read. -> A new topographic map is also available, with a better representation of relief and terrain. -> Numerous bugs have been fixed and the app's overall stability was improved.

Best app for monitoring rivers

App has clean design and is easy to use. I can save favorite rivers, look at historical data, etc. I have used many apps to plan self-support river trips in my canoe. This is by far the best.
