### 5/5 — Hervorragend

*2025-06-20*

Sie leistete beste Dienste für meinen Weg nach Finesterre.

### 3/5 — Wrong elevation map

*2023-06-11*

If I try to open the elevation map for the way from Finisterre to Muxia, it will show the elevation map for the way from Santiago to Finisterre. Apart from that I like the App and already used them for other ways.

### 4/5 — Great app - few optimisation

*2022-08-23*

Very nice app as usual- super precise with the elevation 
In comparison with the other one (Podiensis-Frances) there is a little issue with the elevation mode:
When you move on, the green line indicating your position is moving from Fisterra to Santiago and not the opposite (I walk 5km from Santiago and on the app it is indicated that I am 5km from Fisterra)
Once it will be corrected…perfect!

### 5/5 — Perfekt für den Jakobsweg

*2020-07-17*

Ich habe von diesem Anbieter alle Apps der Jakobswege und bin knapp 8.000 km mit diesen in Spanien und Portugal gewandert. Die App ist übersichtlich und sehr einfach zu bedienen. Zudem gibt es regelmäßig Updates mit Verbesserungen. Ich bin Begeistert und kann diese nur empfehlen.

### 5/5 — Essential app for the Camino Finisterre

*2019-10-01*

I waited until I’d completed the Camino Finisterre before reviewing this app but can now give it an enthusiastic 5 stars. It guides you through the whole route with notes on each step, lists of Albergues, cafes etc & warnings about stretches where there are no facilities. Crucially there is also a downloadable map covering the whole route so you can always see where you are (and how far to the next coffee stop) without needing a 3G signal. There is also the opportunity to add comments to sections so you can see the latest tips from pilgrims on the route. Thoroughly recommended!

### 1/5 — Need much improvement

*2017-10-07*

This is not even close to the Camino Frances app. Missing tons of albergues. Interactive map is very wrong and could be harmful if you try and follow it.

### 3/5 — Disappointed

*2016-10-10*

I was disappointed that albergues were not reviewed.  I found the Wise Pilgrim for the Camino France had reviews of albergues that were extremely helpful.  The other parts of the app were just fine.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 6.3.2 — 2026-08-08

Fly your Camino before you walk it. The new Flyover screen gives you a cinematic 3D preview of every stage in your itinerary, and Explore mode lets you roam the whole route in 3D. The dashboard is now yours to arrange — press and hold any card to move it. Also includes the latest albergue updates from the trail.

### 6.2.15 — 2026-06-28

A big update this time around.

New on the map: a 6th style — 3D — to help you get your bearings in the bigger cities. And every map style now responds to a two-finger tilt, so you can lean the map back and look off into the distance to see what's ahead.

If you plan with the itinerary, there's a lot here for you:
- Dates are now supported, including multi-night stays in the same town.
- The stage banners at the start and end of each day tell you far more now.
- Notes you add in the online planner come along for the ride — they import straight into the app.
- City pages now show what you've booked, whether it's confirmed, and how you booked it.
- The map can walk you through your itinerary one stage at a time.

And the route page handles those long lists better — it trims itself at your starting point, with an easy tap to bring the earlier places back whenever you want them.

### 6.2.14 — 2026-06-18

New — weather forecasts for every town and your itinerary stages.

A new Wildfire Map. Tap the Layers button and switch on Wildfires to see active fires across Spain and Portugal — updated daily from the EU's Copernicus fire service — plus this season's burnt areas along your route.

I've also refreshed the route tracks with cleaner elevation profiles and a few corrections, updated a number of albergues with the latest information I have, and fixed a few bugs along the way.

Buen Camino.

### 6.2.13 — 2026-06-17

A new Wildfire Map. Tap the Layers button and switch on Wildfires to see active fires across Spain and Portugal — updated daily from the EU's Copernicus fire service — plus this season's burnt areas along your route.

I've also refreshed the route tracks with cleaner elevation profiles and a few corrections, updated a number of albergues with the latest information I have, and fixed a few bugs along the way.

Buen Camino.
