Camping is a great outdoor activity where you get to meet more people, learn new things and have great fun in the woods, which you might not get to have again in a long time.

Moreover, camping reduces stress level due to several physical activities you can try out. This as well increases your vitamin D level.

As technology keeps advancing, there are so many ways your android phone can increase your camping experience.

Here’s my exclusive list of best camping Apps for Android.

List Of Best Camping Apps For Android

FreeRoam

On this app, you can search for free campsites. Though for a quality experience it’s more preferable to opt for the paid campsites.

There are cell coverage map overlays to determine places with an Internet connection.
