What's New in Wise Pilgrim Camino Francés

6.7.6

October 9, 2026

Today's walk is now a tap away on the Yellow X page: how far you've come, how far to tonight's stop, and the Yellow X follows your itinerary. New on the Dashboard: the Pilgrim Roads wall map, and luggage storage and shipping in Santiago. The pronunciation guide now tells you when new places are ready. Preparation for new features for winter pilgrims. And fresh data on every route. Buen Camino!

Quite powerful

When I initially chose this app from all the choices out there, I did so because of the route planner, but now I’m halfway through my Camino and I’ve recognized there are a myriad of additional adaptations - so much functionality to this app. There are a few small improvements I would like to suggest to the developer but overall I think this one is the best; when I compare this to the other applications Pilgrims are using, this one is by far the most powerful and the most adaptable; quite happy with my choice

So helpful

This app has been invaluable: excellent gps mapping (satellite layer has been the best); mileage accurate; useful info at each town.

Indispensable

I have used the Wise Pilgrim apps on all of my Caminos including the Camino Frances (2023), Camino Portuguese and Finisterre (2024) and Camino Frances (2026). This app is indispensable. The maps are excellent, easy to follow, and they show more options than other apps. Many informative village descriptions help me understand why places are important and what to look for. I especially rely on the accommodation comments by other users which help me decide where I want to stay. And a recent upgrade added a stage planning feature, notes, and many user interface improvements. I would not walk a Camino without a Wise Pilgrim app. Highly recommended.

Place names not shown in this update

In this update if you use the map the names of the villages and towns are not shown so it is difficult to find a certain place. I used the app on the Camino last year and it was great, but now it appears the update has reduced the user friendliness

Disappointing

Not intuitive at all. I also bought it for the MacBook, which it doesn’t even appear was happy to take my money. I asked AI and they said just go to Google maps and don’t screw around.
