Camino Guide Offline app for Android

Time of past OR future Camino
Always on Camino!
Hi folks!

Today I'm going to introduce to you a new camino app for Android platform!

app_header.png

The idea was simple - in any moment, the pilgrim should be able to know, where he is now and how far from the end of stage.
Or even better - how far from the albergue he wants to stay in.

Also, the app should be useful without internet connection as well as with it. You will need only GPS enabled in your phone and nothing else.

So, main features for now:

- Build-in offline map.
No need download anything else. (App size is only 20Mb by the way!)

- Navigation.
It works only on the route and nowhere else.

- Distance calculation to the selected albergue.
Or to the end of the stage. From your location.

To know exact distance, we should know exact geo position. That’s why we have collected manually more than 420 albergues' coordinates from different sources!
However, there are could be mistakes. Feel free to send feedback to us. There is special feedback form in our app.

Additional features:

- Detailed routes as well as alternative routes,
- Stages' elevation profiles,
- Albergues' details (phone, address, type, beds),
and more...

Hope, our app will be useful for you guys. And, any suggestions are welcome!

About iOS - it could be someday, but we haven't got resources for it right now :)

I found it, but it did not come up when I typed in Camino Guide Offline. I tried just "Camino" and scrolled down through a bunch of other apps until I found it.
