### 1/5 — sehr unfertig

*2025-05-09*

Muss leider den anderen Rückmeldungen zustimmen. Guter Ansatz, aber noch sehr viele hakeligen Stellen. Bei mir war z.B. Schluß, als ich die Wegpunkte verschieben wollte und dabei stattdessen permanent neue Fenster geöffnet wurden. Ok, Abschalten des Stagemanager brachte Abhilfe .. aber sowas geht nicht, so was muss ausführlich getestet werden.

### 3/5 — App mit Potential aber momentan noch im Beta Status

*2025-03-17*

Man erkennt wo es mit der App hingehen soll, allerdings ist diese noch gespickt mit Fehlern. Sei es die mangelhafte Synchronisation zwischen einzelnen Geräten, Routenpunkte lassen sich nicht löschen, Abstürze der App oder auch willkürliche Veränderungen der Route. Das sind nur die Dinge die mir nach kürzester Zeit aufgefallen sind.

Die App befindet sich derzeit bestenfalls im Beta Status. Da ist es schon ziemlich „gewagt“ Geld, für den vollen Funktionsumfang, zu verlangen.

Es gibt in der App aber die Möglichkeit den Entwickler direkt zu kontaktieren. Zum einen über Fehler (Screenshot oder Videos können aber leider nicht hochgeladen werden) und zum anderen kann man separat Wünsche und Anregungen äußern. Ich hoffe der Entwickler nimmt sich derer auch an!

Daher sehr gut gemeinte 3 Sterne

### 1/5 — Absoluter Müll

*2025-02-27*

Am Anfang dachte ich die App ist ganz gut gemacht. Beim Einfügen oder Löschen von Stopps wird die gesamte Route verändert. Dies passierte mehrfach sodass man am Ende so gefrustet ist und abbricht. Absolut nicht zu empfehlen!! Lasst die Finger davon!

**Developer response:** Hi Ellen, in der neusten Version gibt es die Möglichkeit einen Bug Report zu verfassen bzw. kannst du mir auch via fernweh.app@icloud.com schreiben. Damit kann ich schauen was schief läuft und es beheben.

### 1/5 — iOS 16 support?

*2025-02-10*

This app looks good but only supports iOS 18.0 and up, can you add iOS 16 support pls

### 1/5 — Unbrauchbar

*2025-01-20*

Im ersten Moment dachte ich „endlich genau das gefunden, was ich gesucht hab“. Leider zerschießt einem die App die komplette Planung, wenn man versucht etwas zu ändern: Hab zum Beispiel versucht einen Ort zwischen zwei Destinationen einzufügen - daraufhin hat es den gesamten Verlauf durcheinander gebracht, manche Orte waren plötzlich mehrfach drin, die ganze Planung für die Katz. Und dafür hab ich auch noch ein Haufen Geld ausgegeben… nicht zu empfehlen

**Developer response:** Hi Stephan, kannst du mir deine genauen Schritte mitteilen, die zu dem unerwünschten Ergebnis geführt haben? Dann kann ich es reproduzieren und dir schnell eine Lösung bereitstellen. Entweder hier als Antwort oder an fernweh.app@icloud.com - am besten via Email für eine einfachere Kommunikation.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.22.0 — 2026-08-07

What's New in Version 1.22.0:

NEW:
• Booking Details — Keep a price, confirmation number, operator and booking link on any stop or saved place — so what you need on arrival is in the trip, not buried in your inbox.
• Flexible Stays — Set a stay as a length of time or a number of nights, with one-tap presets suited to each kind of place. Lunch stops and hotel nights finally work the same way.
• Daily Start Time — One daily start time now decides when every driving day begins, so the stop screen and the timeline always agree on when you leave.
• Ferry Crossings — Turn a stretch of your route into a ferry crossing: note the check-in time, the sailing and when you land, and the rest of the day reflows around it.
• Saved Places, Sorted — A trip's saved places are grouped by category with the biggest groups first, so you can find that restaurant without scrolling past every viewpoint.
• Plan straight from a day — Add a stop or a saved place from the day you are looking at, without going back to the whole trip.
• Unreachable arrivals are flagged — If a pinned arrival time cannot be made, the trip says so instead of quietly showing it as fine.

IMPROVED:
• A faster trip list and map, especially on long trips with many stops.

FIXED:
• A leg no longer draws two route lines on top of each other.
• Route lines render solid again on Apple Maps.
• Renaming a trip by tapping its title works again.

### 1.21.0 — 2026-07-31

What's New in Version 1.21.0:

NEW:
• Turn-by-Turn Navigation — start guided navigation right from your planned route, with voice prompts and a map that follows you leg by leg, all the way through every stop of a multi-leg trip.
• CarPlay — bring the whole trip to your dashboard: turn-by-turn directions, automatic continuation across multi-leg trips, and your EV charging stops along the route, all on your car's display.
• Your EV charging stops ride along — the chargers you planned for travel with you into navigation, so the next one is always on the map.
• Dimension-aware guidance (Pro) — with your vehicle's height, width, and weight set in Settings, live navigation steers around low bridges, narrow streets, and weight-restricted roads just like planning does.
• Navigation is included with Fernweh Pro, with a monthly allowance of guided sessions — for unlimited turn-by-turn navigation, Fernweh Navigation lifts the cap entirely.

IMPROVED:
• A smoother handoff from planning to driving — your trip, stops, and charging plan carry straight into navigation, no re-entering anything.

FIXED:
• Stability and performance improvements.

### 1.19.0 — 2026-06-13

What's New in Version 1.19.0:

NEW:
• Vehicle-Aware Routes (Pro) — add your vehicle's height, width, and weight in Settings, and trip planning will avoid low bridges, narrow roads, and weight-restricted bridges.
• A clearer map — redesigned stop and point-of-interest pins, and one tidy day label per travel day instead of repeated badges.
• Searching for a saved place by its full name now brings up that place directly.

IMPROVED:
• More realistic travel times — durations now follow your vehicle's driving style (Normal / Cautious / Slow) and update immediately when you change or remove the vehicle.
• Arrival-time warnings now only appear for arrival times you set yourself, and they use the same vehicle-adjusted travel times.
• Archived trips now stay out of the way everywhere: search, the place inbox, Siri Shortcuts, and Spotlight.
• The paywall now shows exactly which features are included in Pro.

FIXED:
• Sharing a location into Fernweh no longer closes early, and a large memory spike was fixed.

### 1.18.1 — 2026-05-13

What's New in Version 1.18.1:

FIXES:
• Resolved an issue where the Trip Overview could appear empty after an iOS update — your trips are back and won't disappear again.

### 1.18.0 — 2026-04-30

What's New in Version 1.18.0:

NEW:
• Apple Calendar sync — your trip drives automatically appear as Calendar events, kept up to date when you adjust a trip
• Copy stops between trips — duplicate planning quickly without retyping

IMPROVEMENTS:
• Trip Detail flags unaccounted days between anchored stops, so gaps in the itinerary are easy to spot
• Mapbox attribution polish
