### 4/5 — Free camp priority.

*2026-08-19, version 6.2.3*

Definitely need to cater for free off grid campers as we support small towns $$. Please don’t be sell outs to big corporate mobs.

### 1/5 — Recent updates ruined the app.

*2026-08-18, version 6.2.3*

What was once a great app has been ruined me a “schmick” new look. Not as useable, intuitive, or effective. Please go back to the old version!

### 1/5 — Nowhere near as good as it was four years ago

*2026-08-06, version 6.2.3*

Very unhappy with the updates since. You now only promote certain parks. Not all.

### 2/5 — Used to be the best

*2026-08-04, version 6.2.3*

Unfortunately, it is now only a booking agent. The reviews are ancient the updates for the sites mediocre and many wrong or not updated because there is no money in it. Sad

### 1/5 — Rubbish now

*2026-08-03, version 6.2.2*

We are always outback and out of range, used to be able to find spots without mobile range and now it doesn’t work if you don’t have mobile range.. absolutely useless to us now.

### 2/5 — Phil

*2026-07-29, version 6.2.2*

Since they removed the PC capability it has become very awkward to plan a trip using Wikicamps. I’m actively looking for an alternative as trying to plan a trip on your phone is nigh on impossible

### 2/5 — Won’t Load

*2026-07-18, version 6.2.2*

Debal28

### 1/5 — New is not always better

*2026-07-13, version 6.2.2*

We used the old version on our trip around Australia and dozens of trips around WA. The new version is not particularly user friendly but will keep trying to make sense of it!

### 3/5 — Put it back

*2026-07-12, version 6.2.2*

Why are there no longer options for dogs allowed etc? All the fillers have changed and it’s so much harder to use. It should automatically open to the map view and the filters need to be put back! I may finally move over to the all camps app

### 1/5 — What happened

*2026-07-07, version 6.2.2*

This used to be a great resource but it’s become very buggy. Filters don’t seem to work. All the campsites keep disappearing and I have to restart the app. I press on a campsite and nothing loads or it just stalls out after looking at two photos and won’t load anything else. Overall it just keeps needing a restart it over and over to get things to load again. That’s on a good Internet connection- all other apps working fine.

This probably isn’t the fault of the developers but every “free” campsite I find on here is actually paid.
