Wild This Way

Wild This Way field guide

Prepare your phone for an offline safari

A field checklist for maps, location permissions, battery, photos and queued reports before mobile signal disappears.

Before the gate

Open the Web App while connected, sign in, choose the reserve and allow location access. Download the available reserve pack when offered.

  • Add Wild This Way to your Home Screen
  • Confirm the correct reserve
  • Open the map once before losing signal

Location can work without mobile data

Satellite GPS can still estimate your position offline, but the browser needs location permission and a clear view of the sky. Accuracy may take longer to settle.

Preserve the original photo

When uploading later, choose the original file rather than a screenshot or messaging-app copy. Copies often remove capture time and GPS metadata.

Queue first, sync later

Offline reports remain on the device until a connection returns. Keep the tab or installed Web App available and confirm that the queued item shows as uploaded before deleting the original.
