Best Camino Apps for iPhone Users

Specifically the VIA app. In the map section the icons for the various cafes, hostels eat, seem to want to be 'clickable' to get more information but are not working on my iPhone. Is it an iPhone issue or am i missing something?
Any thoughts on the best resource? I have been looking at the VIA, Plata, Plata Premium and Buen Camino apps and the Gronze website. I think I need to pick 1 or 2 or it will all be overwhelming. I like the idea of being able to click through to phone numbers, WhatsApp contact info, email addresses, websites, ect.
(I'm in Seville from Feb 19-May15 and hope to start on my birthday, March 4, unless I get the itch to sooner)
Thanks in advance for any advice
 
€2,-/day will present your project to thousands of visitors each day. All interested in the Camino de Santiago.
I used the Wise Pilgrim, Buen Camino and Gronze. Wise pilgrim is good for whatsapp. I just look at all three to see if there are more choices in more of the towns. The VDLP especially when I walked in late fall of 2021 had alot of albergues closed so I need the help. All are good. It also is easier to navigate than you may fear.
 
The 2024 Camino guides will be coming out little by little. Here is a collection of the ones that are out so far.
I liked Wise Pilgrim but used Gronze as well - it was more up-to-date with albergue status.

I walked the VdlP last year (from 9 March 2022) and I only used the website gronze.com and found all the information (about the albergues) that I needed.
I also kept a weblog that may be interesting for you to view: https://viadelaplata2022.reislogger.nl
