Apr 18, 2021 Version 4.0.8
2021 SPRING UPDATE
I have undone some of the changes made during last Spring's Covid update. Rather than maintain an evershifting list of openings and closings, I have included all accommodation that have not been confirmed as permanently closed. There are some new albergues, and several more have changed ownership.
Some minor stuff too:
Better visibility of private accommodation prices.
Updated content, 20+ new hotels and lots of albergues under new ownership.
version 4.0.5
posted on 2020-04-05
Apr 5, 2020 Version 4.0.5
I hope these release notes find all of you safe at home and healthy with your family, no doubt looking forward to brighter days on the camino.
This update hopes to make those days a bit easier to navigate. Here in Santiago we are all home bound so I have made the best of the situation by coding some long desired changes to the apps.
Design Changes, Functionality Additions, and a bit of bed bug fumigation:
• A completely redesigned 'region' view. This was to accommodate a new feature which allows you to set a place as your starting point, and because of that all of the distances had to be reconsidered for the best readability. It should be rather intuitive, and it is better described in the legend page. These changes also allow for the page to be a lot more readable, and of course planning your day just got a lot easier.
• Better accommodation sorting. Accommodation in a city is now better sorted, with albergues grouped by type at the top and with private accommodation options grouped by type below. No more funny business where albergues were scattered randomly throughout the list.
• Better comment sorting. In the past comments didn’t always sort by date. In the now they do.
• Better visualization for exactly how far away from the camino some of those alternate routes take you.
• A bug which caused to guide to crash if there was a comment which was empty has been fumigated.
• Most users will now see the correct decimal separator for distances, with periods and commas appearing where they ought to.
• Generally better typography. Some missing characters were fixed, sizes were adjusted, that kind of thing.
Stay safe, and I hope to see you all later this year.

Hot on the heels of the big Spring 2020 update, comes this minor bug fix.
This update fixes a small mapping bug which caused the map to fail along some stretches of the Camino.
version 4.0.2
posted on 2020-02-29
Feb 29, 2020 Version 4.0.2
Big code update, and some significant changes to how the maps are accessed. The map icon in the upper-right now opens the map to that location, and the compass in the upper-right zooms to your location.
The app is finally rotatable, which has been requested by a few pilgrims along the way.

Feb 1, 2020 Version 3.0.5
This is the big 2020 update. The app will continue to get bi-monthly updates during the year but this is the biggest one.
There are a few new albergues, a few closed albergues, and a smattering of telephone number changes.
Thanks again for all of the great support!
