You expect to have all your personal equipment and or other members of your group with you wherever you go. There is, however, no guarantee that’s how your adventure will go. You could find yourself alone in a remote area— with little or no personal gear. This app provides information and describes basic techniques to enable you to survive and return alive should you find yourself in such a situation.

Great, but one omission
logicforever

This is everything it purports to be. The only think it leaves out is how to charge your iPhone/iPad when stranded in the wilderness. Is that a poisonous plant? Oh darn, battery's dead.

Weak
johnnyappleseedfan

Stuff i learned in boy scouts. Nothing useful for the experienced improviser. Save your money.


the best iPhone/iPad you can get on survival
Polowathlo

the best app you can get when it comes to survival and bushcraft. perfect for the average American who doesn't know much about survival. If you are more experienced this is a little too basic.


This is *very* interesting...

So this app is basically just a book, but it is a very cool book that might just save your life someday! Some of the stuff was ridiculously useful, like how to treat sunstroke or determine what plants can be eaten, and the rest of the stuff involved situations that you probably won't ever encounter, but it's still really interesting... like how to signal to a plane that you need help or that an enemy is approaching or whatever. I feel like I grew some new brain cells just reading this. It's so fascinating, and it makes me almost want to get stranded in the middle of alligator infested enemy territory with nothing but a knife.
