CWGC War Graves FAQ
Is CWGC War Graves free?
Yes, CWGC War Graves is completely free and it doesn't have any in-app purchases or subscriptions.
Is CWGC War Graves legit?
⚠️ The CWGC War Graves app has poor ratings and negative feedback. Users seem unsatisfied with its performance or features.
App werkt vooral rondom je huidige gps punt en daar moet je dan maar internet hebben. Op de kaart worden dan nabije begraafplaatsen getoond, maar zodra de kaart ver is uitgezoomd komen geen nieuwe punten meer in beeld. Zoeken op een stad geeft niet altijd resultaat. Ieper in belgie bijvoorbeeld wordt niet gevonden.
App improvement
It would be nice to have the facility to log the graves found. Or at least log that you have visited the cemetery to pay your respects. I love waking and we often pop into cemeteries to look around and pay respect.
OK if you know the location.
Otherwise not of great use as when you find a location just tells the number of graves at that location. No information about names of people.
Really should expect better
Doesn’t really live up to the description - surely developers can improve the experience here. Too many glitches to list. Sad because it could be a useful tool if it worked.

Another poor attempt by the CWGC to produce an app that works. Get in someone who knows what they are doing or give it up.
A CWGC volunteer
Was going to use instead of printed paper. Very disappointed it just does not work, very clunky as reported in the other reviews.
Great idea but doesn’t work
No longer compatible with IOS 14? It seems to freeze on “fetching new cemeteries”
Anon
App no longer works with iOS!! Please get this sorted!!
Now useless
Since the cwgc ‘upgraded and improved’ their website neither this app or their website works... dreadfully sad as it all worked perfectly well before and was a useful tool.. now it’s just a shambles
Very Poor
Very disappointing app. Tries to load new cemeteries every launch, when you find one it doesn’t list names and the casualty numbers listed don’t even match those on the CWGC website.
At best this is a beta version of an app,
