Wapp - Walking app

Before I started using this app, I had a lot of trouble finding good hiking trails in Iceland. They’re everywhere, but, outside of this app, not well documented. Even the locals didn’t know about some of the hikes. So, for a great hike in Iceland… Step 1: Check the weather and find out where the sun is shining. Step 2: Drive there. Step 3: Use Wapp to find a trail close by. The only confusing thing about Wapp is that you have to “buy” the maps, even the free ones. However, if a map says it is free, then even though you have to “buy” it, you will not be charged. From my experience, almost every single map I wanted was free.

Nice idea but in order to download the maps you are charged per map. Would be nice to know that in advanced and also be able to see the costs up front. Really cannot see anything unless purchase maps. So cannot tell if maps are any cheaper than walking tours featured in travel books.

I am looking forward to using this app soon on my first trip to Iceland. So far I have only downloaded the multiple free walks. If one were to buy all available maps the cost would amount to almost $100. An overview map to show where all the different hikes are located appears to be missing and would be helpful for trip planning. So far I'll give this app a **** rating as the concept is great and many maps are free.
