About this app

PeakVisor will make you a superhero of outdoors navigation by putting state-of-the-art 3D maps and mountain identification in the palm of your hand.

"PeakVisor is a seemingly magical app that instantly recognizes the name of any mountain peak that comes into view using a combination of your phone’s camera" - Atlas & Boots

"A lovely little app that uses your phone’s camera and the power of augmented reality to identify any mountain you aim the camera at." - Digital Trends

Key Features:

● Mountains Identification
Identify more than a million hills & mountains all over the world and get a detailed profile for each one of them, including altitude, topographic prominence, mountain range, what national parks or reserves it may belong to, as well as photos and Wikipedia articles. It is one of the most useful Augmented Reality technology applications on the market today.

● 3D Maps
Get your topo maps of the future. Cutting edge technology with high-precision terrain modeling allows simple, yet effective insight into the landscape of the mountains. It is the most convenient way to explore a mountainous area, its trails, summits, passes, viewpoints, and even parking areas.

● Hiking Route Planner
A vast network of worldwide hiking trails and walking pathways included in PeakVisor’s 3D Maps will help you compose a hiking route, which includes, evaluating the distance you can expect to hike, as well as a route’s elevation profile, and estimated time for completion. To help you plan your route we’ve included points of interest in our 3D Maps such as mountain huts, parking lots, cable cars, viewpoints, castles, etc.

● Everything works Offline
Internet connection is not a prerequisite for the PeakVisor app. All the data is downloadable and ready for use no matter where you are or what altitude you might be at.

● Identifying Mountains in Photos
If you have photos from previous hikes that you did not take through the app, you can still find out what peaks you saw by download your images into the PeakVisor app and adding a digital overlay of the mountains with names and altitudes of all the peaks in view.

● Photo Planning
PeakVisor’s Sun and Moon trajectories come super handy when planning the perfect time to take pictures.

PeakVisor is the Swiss army knife of outdoor adventure and will soon be indispensable to you future hiking needs. Just keep it in your backpack and you'll get value from it every time you’re on the trail!

I feel like I wasted my money on this app. The iPhone version is so much better. This feels like the annoying little brother that wants to do everything big brother does but just embarrasses it's self. It never knows which way it's pointing. You have to drag across the screen & hope you can line up the mountains. You also better have rock steady hands, one tiny move, and the whole outline freaks out and moves so that you are always fighting to keep it lined up. This feels like the wish version.

This app is nowhere near the level of the iPhone version. As an avid hiker that loved this app when I had an iPhone, it's a huge disappointment in terms of functionality and it's looks

The app force closes with the latest update. Unusable in its current for with Android Pie. Great app before aside from the compass, which never automatically aligned - always had to manually adjust it. Update: Developer fixed the app after becoming aware of the issue. Compass is currently tied to the magnetometer hardware of the phone.

Hello Aaron, we've fixed the crash as soon as we noticed your report. Please let us know if everything is fine. We aren't likely to be able to fix the compass though, the app simply uses information from hardware magnetometer built into the phone. We are working on the version which adjusts the compass automatically. Thanks!
