Iceland Co-Pilot

Available now Android only Free with any map

Iceland Co-Pilot is the companion app for the 121 locations in the map set: the same field notes, on your phone, working offline in places with no signal. It is live on Google Play and included free with any map purchase — it has never been, and will never be, a separate purchase.

What works today

Offline

The location catalog, with you in the field

Every location's field notes, parking and access notes on the device — no signal needed to read them.

Arrival

Know when you've reached the spot

Arrival detection tells you when you're at the location, so you're not squinting at a dot on a map while driving.

Where this actually stands — last verified 9 August 2026

  • Android only. If you shoot on an iPhone, this is not for you yet — we would rather say so here than after you have installed nothing.
  • Free with any map purchase, never a separate one. If you have already bought a map, you will not be asked for another payment. There is no Co-Pilot tier and nothing to upgrade into.
  • The map layer still needs a connection. Packing Iceland's tiles for genuine offline use is the last big piece of the offline story — the location catalog and field notes already work with no signal; the map you see them on does not, yet.
  • Light windows, road and weather status, and day routing are designed but not built.

What's next

In progress, not promised on a date.

Offline

A map that draws without a connection

Packing Iceland's tiles onto the device so the map itself works where the catalog already does.

Light

Golden hour for where you are standing

Sunrise, sunset and blue-hour times computed for the specific location and date, rather than for the country as a whole.

Conditions

Road and weather status next to the pin

Vegagerðin road status and the forecast for that coordinate, so a closed mountain road is visible before the drive, not during it.

Routing

A day built from what is actually reachable

Order a day's locations by drive time and light window instead of by map distance.

Buy a map, get the app

The map files are finished and delivered instantly, and already work offline in Gaia GPS, Garmin, Google Maps and anything else that reads KML, GPX or GeoJSON — on any phone, including the iPhone Co-Pilot does not support yet. Co-Pilot is not a separate purchase and never will be: buy a map, and the app is included.
