reFinder outdoor

reFinder is the outdoor activities app for people who love to collect and spend time in a natural environment. reFinder helps you to find the best mushrooms and the tastiest berries; the best fishing spot or the flowers you would like to classify. And where was that beautiful viewpoint and the grill area again?

Take a picture of an object you would like to find again. reFinder saves date, time and position data. Each object is shown with details you can jot down additionally. You can also import pictures from the iOS Photos app. Geodata will then be included, if applicable. Single pictures can be deleted at all times.

The reFinder app provides the following categories: mushrooms, berries, fishing spot, plants and miscellaneous objects. The vehicle finder function is an additional feature enabling you to mark the position of your car, motorcycle or bike and you will find back easily. It is a useful function also in urban and metropolitan surroundings, too.

You can switch between the basic functions map view, list view and general picture overview according to your preferences. This enables you to find certain objects by viewing the pictures (picture overview) or by reading the descriptions (text search function).

The reFinder app is all about being your archive which you can fill and optimise, and not so much a sharing tool. But you can, in case you like to, also send pictures of the treasures you found or export your photos to Instagram.

As an option you can send a .gpx file via the sharing function, in order to make use of the data in other tracking programmes.

Create a backup of the stored data via iTunes File Sharing.

Via GPS Reverse Decoding you can generate the corresponding postal address from the geographical data.

For a better overview you can list the stored entries in reFinder according to the distance from the actual position or according to the time the entry was made.

Please feel free to send comments and suggestions for improvement directly to the developers via the app. By doing so, you can help to extend and improve the app continuously.
