Title: Camps Australia Wide now available as an App
Post by: DannyG on November 08, 2012, 10:49:19 AM
As the title suggests the Camps 6 book from Camps Australia Wide is now available as an iPhone/iPad app.

It is $51 to purchase but has everything the book has and obviously is a lot more interactive and user friendly. Personally I am more of a hard copy type of person but for those who like their tech gadgets this might be for you :)

You can also pay for yearly or monthly subscriptions to updates.

I am not affiliated with this, just giving everyone the heads up incase you didnt know.

Thanks. Seems expensive for an app when you consider wikicamps is only a few dollars. I guess it may show more places etc but would be good to compare the two.

Tried to buy my 1st ever app a couple of days ago. It became a technical nightmare to the point my card got blocked for a "possible fraud attempt"...but not before google managed to get $2 out've it  >:D

Like you DannyG, I'll stick with hard copies of stuff thanks ;)

It would be interesting to see if the app integrates with the GPS capability of the Ipad....

That may mean you have locations, the visual of the photos, and the actual tracking all in one.

Yep already using the wiki camps, I ain't paying $50 plus a subscription. The only advantage I think is it works with out reception.
