Wise Pilgrim Vía de la Plata

If you need an app to follow the route or check your location, it’s no worse than the other apps available, none of which are as reliable or as up to date as gronze.com But anyone reading user reviews should understand Wise Pilgrim is not keen on unfavourable reviews of the Albergues. So much so, my honest, negative review of an Albergue now reads as though I am recommending it.

Have just walked from Seville to Salamanca. The app was great for planning upcoming stages and the map was invaluable in making informed choices when way markers were scarce or confusing. Well worth the money. Minor bug: the app tends to crash if you select an off route place as your starting point. Not a big problem as my starting points were generally on route but it would be nice to have the issue fixed.

Really have enjoyed these apps for my Camino’s but I’m doing the VDLP and the elevation map stops at Salamanca and I can’t get it to go further up the route. How can I address this issue please?

I have just completed the VdlP and this app was invaluable. Excellent information - it wil never capture every albergue or bar! A couple of gripes - firstly the app kept crashing and then restarting most times I went back to it from another screen. Secondly, the ability to comment on albergues is excellent but I think many users dont do this as they never scroll down the page to see that it is possible. Please make this more prominent and also enable the abilty to commetn on other things such as places and that way we could add info about bars and new albergues.

I used the Camino Frances version of this app when I walked from Pamplona to Santiago last year and found it really useful. I'll be walking the Via sometime soon and will be taking this app with me for sure. I will be starting in Cadiz and would love to see this stretch of the route (Cadiz - Seville) added in; I'm sure there are plenty of people setting out from the coast.
