Tried a few of these apps over the years and this was the only one that wasn’t a mess of overlapping text. The fine tuning overlay that compensates for the compass inaccuracy is class. Worth it for me, everyone knows the big mountain near them but rarely knows the rest. Yet another app you can use as a crutch to your intelligence deficit, collect the whole set!
€4.99!? I’m a rambler not a lottery winner!
In all seriousness though, AllTrails is another invaluable app for those of the same hiking persuasion.
If anyone just want to try it, PeakVisor is a similar app that has a very expansive subscription, but can be used for free a few times (I think once a day or something)
That’s class. Not paying for something I’ll only use once though.
Nice always thought this be a good idea for an app. How detailed is it though. Does it give names of even small peaks on the horizon, hills basically?
The town I went to college in here in the States has a Sugar Loaf too! Much much smaller at 150m. Still a fun little hike.
Haha OP the pic you took is something Ive wondered to myself every morning going out to work for years in Bray before I moved, thanks, thats literally the one thing I would have used the app for.
As someone living in the Sperrins, this is probably the one app worth £5 I might actually consider buying just because there are that many peaks I don’t know the names of
G’wan the Bray ! Co wicklow massive
i found something similar a while back that was just a website that took info from openstreetmap and displayed a line drawing/side view of mountain peaks, not a fancy AR overlay like this. cant remember what is was called now but its out there somewhere in the ether if someone wants a free version of this
Guess we found last night’s lotto winner
I’ve never paid for an app in my life.
I have wanted this for years. But I don’t know about the price.

Peak-Identify is free but I’ve not used it much. [Here’s the Android version] (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.identify.peakidentify)
