From someday to let’s go
A few thoughtful tools for the moments before,
during and after your next park visit.
Keep dates, ordered stops and private notes in one place. Check documented access choices and what to know before you go.
Plan your first tripKeep your cards together, remember expiry dates and compare documented benefits against your plans. Conditions stay visible.
Explore your pass walletIllustrations explain the features. A stored pass photo does not replace an official pass. Fee comparisons are estimates based on the information shown.
Tenaya Lake · Yosemite National Park04 / Prepare before you go
A quiet moment should not depend on a signal. Download selected map areas before you leave, and keep your catalog, trips and pass wallet close.
Downloads cover an area around a chosen point, not necessarily an entire park or the route between stops. No offline turn-by-turn directions.
Made for your peace of mind
No profile to build. No ads to scroll past. Your personal records stay on your device, and private pass photos are encrypted with a device-held key.
Maps, remote park photos and optional updates make requests to their providers. You choose when to export or share.
Our approach to privacyThe field guide
All implemented Parkspan features are free, with no ads or subscriptions in the app. Park entrance fees, official passes, reservations and mobile data charges are separate.
Parkspan 0.6.0-beta is currently in private testing. There is no public download or Google Play listing yet. The availability page will provide the official destination when a public release is ready.
The app currently supports Android 11 and newer. You can browse this website on an iPhone, iPad or computer, but an iOS version of the app is not available.
The bundled catalog, saved places, trips and pass wallet work offline. Download a selected map area before you leave. A download covers an area around a chosen point, not necessarily the whole park or the roads between stops. External links and uncached full-size photos may still need internet.
No. The wallet keeps a private reference copy. It does not issue or validate a pass, and a stored photo does not establish acceptance as an official digital pass. Carry the pass and identification required by the destination.
Parkspan uses dated, sourced information with some coverage gaps. It does not provide live closure alerts or an all-clear for travel. Check the destination's official information for current access, reservations, fees and eligibility.
Personal records stay in app-private storage, and pass photos are encrypted with a device-held key. Maps, remote photos and optional public-data updates make network requests to their providers. Backups and support reports leave the app only through actions you choose.
