Android apps for the Camino

[Jeff Crawley]

Currently off work with lower back problems at present - some might say this is payback for raising the subject of lightweight, frameless, thin strapped backpacks - but it's given me a chance to meander through the app shop (I can't use our own as it's for iPhones).

Not wanting to be disloyal but these caught my eye (I've taken screenshots you can access through the hyperlinks to Drive):

ALBERGUES - a choice of routes and places to stay

CAMINO PILGRIM - similar information but it has a mapping section

MAPAS DE ESPAGNA - beautifully rendered IGN mapping - the 3D shot will give you pause for thought if you're heading from SJPP to Roncesvales! I think you can import a KML file but haven't tried this yet.

MICAMINO - similar to the first two also with a mapping page

There are lots and lots more but I liked these the best.

Hope they're of some interest.

all the best

Both look good! Thanks Buz

Sorry, but WisePilgrim for the Frances is a dog. When walking the Frances in Oct-Nov 2015, every time I tried to open a map, it crashed, meaning it was useless. I was using a Samsung Galaxy S3. For other routes WisePilgrim apps were fine.
