Suggestions for App for iphone

[JGJ]

Hello everyone: I'm walking the Camino Frances in June 2023 ... my first time on a camino and I'm really looking forward to my pilgrimage. I have an iphone 8 and wondering whether anyone can suggest an App to use for booking albergues etc.? Cheers from Winnipeg, Canada!

There are Camino apps like Wise Pilgrim and Buen Camino that provide links to booking.com and also direct contact information.

Add WhatSapp, useful for staying in contact with fellow peregrinos and for contacting some albergues. Also AlertCops for emergencies.

Buen Camino!

…and the app for this forum if you have questions on your way

Gronze now has a Gronze Maps app, which links to their Gronze.com website, one of the best places to find out about available accommodation (including whether it takes reservations and contact information). Gronze is in Spanish, but many browsers will automatically translate and the Spanish is simple and repetitive if you don't want to bother with translation and improve your Spanish instead.

Cannot find that app on the apple app store.

Cannot find that app on the apple app store.

I've heard different accounts as to its availability for iPhone. If it isn't there now, I expect it will be fairly soon.

According to this site, it is not yet available in the Apple Store There are several threads discussing the Gronze app, and its availability - for example here, here, and here. But be forewarned that you should read through all the posts to try to sort out the information.

I expect to use the Buen Camino app.

Thanks so much everyone for your responses! This upcoming Camino means so much to me on so many levels. I have been reading many threads and can honestly say that I feel the warmth and strength of family. As odd as it may seem, I’m looking forward to having time for reflection but also meeting folks. See you all on the path starting on June 4th! Amitiés.

as some said, there is wise Pilgrim .
in May 2022 I used on the Portuguese Caminho :Camino Ninja.
not sure you can have access now because the administrator/ developer Unfortunaltely passed away. Someone on a FB group told me It will be accessible.

It's not currently available in the app stores. There is a possibility that someone is taking it over, but nothing for sure yet.
