설명

This app shows Walmart locations throughout the US. and Canada, with over 2,800 specifically designated as Overnight Permitted.

Bonus! Also included along with Walmart locations are Sam’s Clubs, Cabela’s Stores, and RV-Friendly casinos for a total of over 6,000 locations!

The data is crowdsourced, including comments on many locations, and whether or not the a location allows overnight boondocking. This will make it easier for you to find a location that allows free overnight camping and boondocking.

Features:
- No subscription! Just a one-time purchase.
- Location database is included with the app, so all locations are visible when offline.
- Filter what type of locations to display. For example, either Overnight allowed, No Overnight Allowed, or all locations.
- Show a route between your location and the selected location.
- View the locations in list view; easily search the list.
- Get the local weather for the location.
- A Google street view of each location is provided.
- Set a location as a Favorite for later reference.
- Internet searches and more for each location.
- Import routes from GPX files. This makes it much easier to find locations along a route you've created in another app such as Road Trip Planner.
- Send a location to our app Road Trip Planner. This helps in routing your travels (requires separate purchase of the Road Trip Planner app).

We want to improve our database as much as possible, so we have made it easy for you to submit a new location - simply tap the + button below the map. To correct or update a location, tap “Location Comment” in the detail view. We will be updating the database often.

Due to the nature of the locations changing their status it's recommended you contact the establishment prior to arriving to ensure overnight boondocking is allowed.

Modesitt Software, the app developer, is not affiliated with or sponsored by in any way with Walmart or any other establishment.

Incorrect listings

Very helpful app but they forget to tell you the listings may not be inaccurate. They forget to tell you that the customer not the company is used to correct the listings. They don’t let you know that you can drive an hour and a half to a place and then find out it’s not available because it’s listed as being current and accurate. Why not tell your customers so that they are happier that the listings may or may not be current that the software is outsourced to the customer? Why not put a disclaimer where everyone can see it and encourage customers to update the information? I went to a Cabelas that was listed as being a place for BoonDocking. iIt was not. I went inside I asked the clerk she said Cabela’s does not own the parking lot and therefore cannot offer overnight camping. i’m assuming that Cabela’s has never owned the parking lot and has never allowed camping because they don’t have the authority so how did this listing get approved in the first place? How does a app like this get a 4.5 rating when it’s obviously a degraded and inaccurate listing and then blame the customer that they didn’t update the software or notify them?

Thanks for the review, but you have some things wrong. We did accurately check the status of all the stores in our app. Some are listed as camping allowed, some not. But sometimes a stores status changes and we don't know about it. We rely on crowdsourcing for any corrections to the database, and it works well. You did tell us of an incorrect listing, but we did not ask you to double-check your software and database. We did suggest you assure that you're using the latest database, that's all. Maybe you're thinking of another app?
