Keep the photos and the path you walked together. Start a walk in WalkPic, then take pictures with the iPhone Camera. When you return, see your route and photos on a map. Play the walk to revisit it one photo at a time, or open a photo stop for walking directions. Your own photo journal Keep walks organized by day, add private notes and mark favorites. Find a walk by its name or place, filter by country, or choose Calendar in the filter menu. Your private journal stays on your iPhone until you choose to share or export it. Save and restore an encrypted archive through Files with your own passphrase. Share what you choose Review your route and photos before publishing. Hide part of a route, share a photo as a pin or leave it out. Choose Public, Followers or Specific friends, then pick the quality of the shared photos. Your originals stay in Apple Photos. Find walks worth revisiting Explore public walks by area, time or popularity. Follow people and see the walks they share in your feed. Bookmark a shared walk to return to it while its author allows access. Public and unlisted web links let friends view walks without the app. Sign in with Apple or an email code. New profiles can be found by friends; you can turn off Appear in Find people in Edit profile. Remember your places Check in at a place without starting a walk, or add a place to a walk and leave a rating or review. Places brings your visits together across walks. Choose a city or area, move the map to browse nearby places, and open the walks linked to each one. New signed-in visits default to Public, with a Private choice before saving. Saving a public visit shares the place, rating and review without publishing your recording. Existing private visits stay private.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: WalkPic at none against Campanion's 4. WalkPic also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs every 8 days) and device support (4 vs 2). Campanion's advantage is ratings volume (40K vs 2). On price, rating, ads and monetization model there is nothing between them.
