About AL State Parks Guide
The Alabama State Parks Pocket Ranger® app is now available!
This FREE all-inclusive outdoor guide was created in a collaborative effort between Alabama State Parks and ParksByNature Network™.
Powered by Pocket Ranger® technology, the app gives outdoor enthusiasts an environmentally friendly way to enjoy the parks. It contains everything you need to plan a trip to the state parks, navigate them once you get there, and share your experiences afterward.
Newly added features:
•New user interface (UI) with a sleek, more photo-centric home screen design.
•Photo galleries on each park description page.
•A new Explore feature to optimize search capabilities, allowing a 4-in-1 search by location, activities, category, and site name, making it easier to find the perfect recreational destination.
The app still has rich GPS features, such as:
•Advanced GPS Maps, complete with an accuracy and distance indicator, which allow you to access trail data, record tracks from hikes, runs, or bike rides, and view elapsed time and distance traveled.
•Easy-to-cache GPS Terrain Map tiles, which ensure that navigation remains possible in the event of lost mobile reception.
•Photo waypoint feature allowing you to snap a photo and mark and record the coordinates of plant life, animal species or landscape views. Post or share these remarkable finds with family and friends with the click of a button.
•Friend Finder features that tracks friends and family around the parks.
•Built-in compass.
•Potentially life-saving Alert feature that supplies GPS coordinates to designated contacts in case of an emergency.
Other standard features make exploring the great outdoors a breeze:
•Thorough information on all state parks including general policy, contact information, activities, trails, park maps and much more.
•Detailed, cacheable maps of park facilities, trails and campgrounds.
•Up-to-date news, park advisories and weather information.
•Sharing features for sharing current positions, waypoints and recorded tracks via Facebook, Twitter, or email.
•A real-time Calendar of Events.
•Access to online reservations that make it easy to secure overnight visits.
•Plus so much more!
With the Pocket Ranger® in hand, prepare to bask in the vast natural wonders of Alabama State Parks!
•The enhanced pro features on the app are designed to function in areas with little to no mobile reception; however, some of the features require mobile data reception in order to function properly.
•Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.

Will not work. Everytime i open the app it just show a grey screen. This use to be a great app. It hasn't been updates since 2016. There need to be some type of administrator making sure this app works. Looking forward to it working again.

Just like in other reviews, the app does nothing. You load it up and then just end up with a blank screen. Total waste of my time. Don't waste yours!

Whenever I attempt to use the 'locate parks near me' function, the app crashes. Also when I click the Explorer tap, the full screen ad will not close, but I am able to circumnavigate this by clicking on explore on the scrolling home screen advertisements and app highlights.

I am a user of the Outdoor Alabama app use it all the time. I was wondering when the State Parks would offer this service..nice job.Used it up in Lake Guntersville last week GPS and weather alerts as a quick storm came up.Found 2 state parks I never heard of and now plan to do some fishing at Saint Stephens State P ark in Washington County. I live outdoors and my kids love the parks. Now the are having fun with these apps and joined Trophy Case the apps social network site. Roll Tide!!!

The activity slider is unforgiving when trying to slide in either direction, and deselects items simply because the slider must be tapped before sliding.

The trails listed for Chewacla are way out of date. I was very hopeful that this would be a great app, but so far I'm just disappointed. I hope the info is updated very soon.
