What is AR AlpineGuide? The app is a mountain identification tool that uses augmented reality to display the name, altitude, and distance of the mountaintop when you point your iOS device at it. It has data from nearly one million peaks around the world and all features are free to use.
- Displays the name, altitude, and distance of the mountaintop when you point your iOS device at it
- Identifies the names of all the mountain peaks in the 360-degree panoramic AR view
- Displays three-dimensional coordinates and a gyroscope to display the name at the peak, even if you tilt the camera
- Displays the three-dimensional terrain semi-transparently, making it easy to compare it with the actual shape of the mountain and check the location of the peak
- Switches to a 3D view looking down from the sky when you point your iOS device downward
- Allows you to check the names of the terrain and mountains that can be seen from any location specified on the map
- Lets you take a photo with the name of the peak and share it via SNS or email
- Allows you to adjust the position of the peak name display by swiping the AR display up, down, left, or right
- Lets you adjust the position of the peak name display after the picture is taken
- Allows you to import photos taken with another app and add the peak name
- All features are free to use.
- New features allow for perfect registration in AR view
- App can identify the location of the moon
- Useful for hikers, mountaineers, and sight-seers
- Works almost everywhere

Easy to use, far more so than another paid-for app that we gave up on. Worked well in the Aosta Valley where we are staying.

ARAlpineGuide is awesome - and they seemed to have added new features which give you overpays of what the mountians are supposed to look like - so you can adjust to get PERFECT registration in the AR view.
I was also surprised when it knew where the moon was - and even gave me an overview as to where it would be later on!
An absolute MUST HAVE for hikers, mountaineers and sight-seers!!!!

Running latest app version on IPhone 11 Pro Max and ARAlpineGuide loads fine but does not display any names of any peaks. I do not read or write Japanese as the support page takes me to the developers twitter page all in Japanese. Please reply to this review so we can work this issue out. Thank you

The family and I travel across America for my job. We often wondered what mountains are around us. It works good. Thank you.

It took a long time using ARAlpineGuide to figure out that the closest hill to me was called Rattlesnake. Even then I questioned it because of how unintuitive the design of ARAlpineGuide is. What prompted me to rate then delete ARAlpineGuide do good was pointing it at Mt. Rose here locally in Reno and it not even acknowledging that it was even there while it trying to identify mountains that were much farther away.

The compass spins...like on its own and if you touch the screen it spins, so you have no idea what you’re looking at. The “compass calibration” setting doesn’t do anything.
If you don’t know exactly what direction you’re facing, or you can’t line it up with the compass, ARAlpineGuide is completely useless!

I ha e been trying to get ARAlpineGuide to work as described in the description. Several days in a row, I hold it up to the peak I want to know the name and all it does is take a freaking picture. I named. No tags. No identification.
Great app if you only want to know the date.
Useless.
By batal0va
Absolutely not intuitive. It supposed to be point and click, but it’s not. Tutorial doesn’t explain anything.
By CO Resident
No instructions. Open app and no labels!!! Still No idea what mountain peaks are North of Longs Peak out our back windows...maybe they’ll fix or include some help sometime.
By iPop3636
Downloaded data for my area but labeled peaks do not show. Virtually no instructions. Website no good.
By MacSteve in CO
Language challenges, some screens not in English. Adjusting settings to get proper representation/ labeling of peaks hit or miss.
By Chuckf75
Was working ok but now doesn’t show any peaks at all for me. Useless.
By Colorado Jeeper
Don’t waste your time.
Not one name for any peak
By JCKZ Salem's Mom
Great idea. Wrong name for local peak. It started spinning like crazy now it's stuck. No instructions.
Now it works - sort of but shows a bunch of little hills in the foreground when what I want is in the background. Needs to be able to select elevations... only show me mountains above 5,000, or 6,000, or 7,000 feet, etc. or be able to have a rangefinder: only show mountains in the distance.
