I have the speedometer and it's useful.
But the stars app is cool - 'sky view free'

Wikicamps.

After a very quick look at Tripigy in the App Store, it seems they both provide similar info.

"Sun surveyor" no brainer to determine where to face the solar panels
"Sky guide" star maps
"Moon" someone always wants to know what the moon is doing
RFS "fires near me" and Vic fire service "fireready"
St. John's "first aid"
RMS "live traffic"
"Sygic" navigator
Hema "4wd maps" & "explorer"
"Rain?" Weather radar
"Wikicamps"

Obviously, a few of those need network connectivity to work properly

Hi guys,
Yes tripigy mobile is similar to that wiki camps, the different feature currently is we have services such as fuel, shopping, camping etc.

Although I am bias I can say that we have a more accurate database.

In the next 6 weeks you will see a massive amount of difference.

Blogging
Trip recording and planning
Weather
Photo upload and tracking
Status updates
Social interaction.

I hoped we had these feature before Xmas but failed due to our developers.

Plus so much more on its way and the new interface looks very cool.
