Description
Educational scavenger hunts with an AR twist!
Waypoint EDU is a fun, educational augmented-reality scavenger hunt game for classrooms and families.
• New in 2.4, improved 3D graphics with ARKit 2.0!
• New in 2.3, create your own Indoor Hunts with up to 5 Waypoints!
• New in 2.0, play Indoors! Use our beautifully designed printable Waypoint Cards to play right in your classroom.
• Teachers (or parents) use Waypoint EDU to create engaging augmented reality geocaches (“Hunts”).
• Setting up a Hunt is very simple – enter a few details, draw a Playfield directly on the map, and enter quiz questions for your curriculum.
• Teachers can transfer Hunts to student devices using AirDrop.
• A game of Waypoint EDU is a great reason for teachers to take their classes outside.
• Includes two sample Hunts. Students can learn about ancient wonders of the world like Stonehenge and the Pyramid of Giza and groundbreaking inventions like the telephone and the lightbulb via scale-model AR.
Please note: the Outdoor mode in Waypoint EDU requires a device with GPS+Cellular to play, though non-cellular devices can be used to create. Indoor mode requires iOS 11.3 or later.
Get outside (or stay inside) and Hunt!

Ratings and Reviews
Love this so far but..
I think this app is great and the applications are so many but the only thing that would make it perfect is being able to edit where waypoints are placed?? Instead of only being able to randomize the points..I’m not sure if I’m just unsure of how to read and understand the app layout (which is also a bit confusing and ambiguous at times..) but I just can’t figure out that one detail.. GAAAH!
Developer Response ,
Sorry for the confusion; this is possible. From the Creator map, if you tap to select the waypoint marker, then tap and hold on the same marker, after a short delay the marker will lift up and you can drag it to a new position.
Fun way to get your kids OUTSIDE!
As a parent, I’m always looking for ways to get my children out and about, to burn off their energy and get their minds going, and Waypoint EDU does just that! My daughter and son had a great time finding the different waypoints and then using what they’ve learned in school to answer the quiz questions. I like that the app requires parent (or teacher) involvement in creating the playfield and selecting the waypoints, and even gives us the option to set up our own hunt. My kids have already given me ideas on what they want to see for their next hunt! I will definitely be sharing this app with their teachers!
Upload pictures?
Is there any way to upload my own photos in the create a quiz portion?

While we don’t have a timeframe to announce on when it will be ready, this is a planned feature. Sign up for email updates on waypointedu.com and we’ll be sure to let you know when that feature is on the way. Thanks!
