iOverlander 2

This app is terrible the original one is way better. This app makes you download different areas when looking for sites and then it’s confusing to actually see what you downloaded. If I could give this zero stars I would.

I only downloaded this because I downloaded the original version and it recommended I download this newer version, however, it doesn’t show me anything! I have toggled all of the filters, tried changing location just for it to show me something, but nothing…. I like the older version better.

Yes, I will agree, It’s a little different from the first version but I love this new version once you get into it and learn it (which did take a little bit at first). We traveled 200 nights in this year (2024) and 100 of them (approximately) were Boondocking - I found almost all of them on this app. It’s so easy to see where the location is, what the reviews say about it, and the photos really help.

Useless

We’ve been traveling full time in a bus for nearly 2 years and iOverlander was my go-to for places to stay. Loved it, recommended it to everyone. Then the update to this atrocity came. I hate this thing. All the ads make it look cheap and trashy, the subscriptions are out of this world pricey, and it’s a headache to use. Crossing state lines on a road trip and using the free version where you can only download one state at a time makes it impossible. It’s so much harder to navigate the app. I’ve been ignoring this and using my OG iOverlander. Can it be that the people who want bells & whistles can pay for this fancy new one and those of us that don’t want that can keep the old version? Not gonna lie, when the old one shuts down I’ll probably delete both of these. I’m relieved to see this one rated so poorly next to the original because it means I’m not just a hater, this app is worse.

The community made this app, helped other campers find places to safely travel, uploaded there information on location and now are using there own information and charging them for it.. and not even a fair rate.. I could see needing to run operation cost. But it’s lame

I reall enjoy the first versions of this app, I have found many travelers use it. However, this update is worse than the original. It has less places and does not work well. It’s a really simple concept and it should not be this difficult to make an improve version. the new version should include sites from previous versions.

With all the useful reviews posted here why are you wasting time making up excuses for all the obvious mess ups instead of listening to your customers and fixing them? As a potential new customer myself, I’m forced to sign your contract before seeing anything concerning the app itself. Just letting you know that between these horrible reviews, the lack of any urgency to fix any of these issues mentioned, the cost I’m afraid to see, and the immediate mandatory contract required before knowing what you need or will be getting; all of this leads to simply running away. And that’s exactly what I’m doing

Developer reached out and helped explain that I have to download the areas I want to see. Once I did that, everything seems to be somewhat similar to the original app. I do like how you can favorite certain locations as well as see all the photos at once. Also, check-in is easier and you can save them as drafts to come back to. Will give it another shot.

Don’t download this version. They say upgrade but it has no information unless you download your area and then you can’t see adjacent locations or regions unless you subscribe. Total farse! Keep the original version or use something better like Gaia, Overland Bound, or OnX
