User Reviews and Ratings
★★★★★Helpful and well designed app (and guide)
I am returning to the Camino for second time and I found this guide to be very helpful and well designed on my first trip.
My favorite features are the maps, elevation charts, and albergue listings - easy to use and have just the right amount of detail.
Well done Wise Pilgrim.
★★☆☆☆No new update?
Well it’s a good thing I follow groups related to camino so I can get more current updated information. Relying on an app that isn’t updated to plan and navigate isn’t all that wise, IMO.
★★★☆☆Just okay.
Crashes upon open frequently, but just click it 3 or 4 times and it works, so maybe 2 stars would be more appropriate. Not optimized for iPhone X screen size. Used it for partial Camino from SJPDP to Fromista in 2017. Like the elevation profile. Albuergue guide a bit basic but complete, a narrative review might be nice or more user comments would be nice. Comments are recent only. Decent narrative for route but a bit difficult to access, you tap The Provinces, the you find your area. Took a bit
★★☆☆☆Disappointing, irregular functionality
This app’s functionality is highly disappointing. I’m on the Camino now, and more often than not (about 90% of the time), it does not open correctly. That is, the screen open the immediately closes. However, when I view all of the currently open apps, it shows the app as being open. About 25% of the time, I can open the app from there. But the other times I need to close the app fans start over/try again later.
When it works, the information is useful.
★★★★★Three Bits of Advise
When talking to people planning their Camino I give them three bits of practical advise:
1. You don’t need boot—use trail running shoes.
2. Learn some Spanish.
