Wandr is a compass-based city exploration app. Instead of following turn-by-turn directions, Wandr simply points you toward your destination and lets you find your own way. No rigid routes. No constant phone checking. Just a direction — and the freedom to explore. Whether you're traveling somewhere new or rediscovering your own city, Wandr turns navigation into an experience of discovery. --- Compass Navigation Pick a destination and Wandr shows you the direction and distance. There are no step-by-step instructions telling you where to turn. Walk toward your destination and explore naturally along the way. It’s navigation designed for curiosity, not efficiency. --- Discover Places Search for landmarks, cafés, viewpoints, museums, and more. Wandr points you in the right direction so you can wander through streets, neighborhoods, and hidden spots you might otherwise miss. --- Community Walking Guides Explore routes created by locals and travelers. Follow curated guides through cities — from historic walks to food routes — and experience places through the paths others have shared. --- Create Your Own Routes Build and share your own walking guides. Add places you love, organize them into routes, and share them with others. Start from an existing guide or create one from scratch. --- Built for Calm Exploration Wandr is designed to help you spend less time staring at your phone and more time experiencing the city around you. No ads. No algorithmic feeds. Just simple tools to explore. --- Find your own direction.

New: In the stop list and map sheet, you can explicitly retarget to any stop in your itinerary, including already visited stops. Improved: Toolbar arrows now follow the full stop sequence while auto-targeting still advances to the next unvisited stop. ### 1.0.24 — 2026-04-16 This release improves how stop actions work across navigation and makes arrival flow clearer and faster. New: Tapping a stop now gives more useful actions depending on context (start navigation, remove stop, view details, or retarget your current destination) so you can continue your route with fewer steps. Improved: Arrival actions in Compass are streamlined with clearer primary choices, especially on final-stop scenarios, so the next step is more obvious when you reach a stop. Improved: Stop subtitles and labels are clearer for stops that are not linked to a saved place, making map and compass context easier to understand at a glance. Also includes additional UI polish and minor bug fixes for a smoother navigation experience. ### 1.0.22 — 2026-04-13 No release notes. ## Related topics [gdm explore](https://appshunter.io/ios/topics/gdm-explore) --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
