Cameroon HiGuide

iOS iPhone

The HiGuide apps are designed to discover all kinds of territories, very small or very large. After Paris city, after Corfu island, our new title is a country: the Cameroon.

Because of its varieties of culture, landscapes, fauna or flora, Cameroon is often referred to as Africa in miniature. It is the land of ecotourism.

The pygmies were the first inhabitants of Cameroon. They are still there, hunting to survive in the forests. But they are nomore alone in Cameroon! some 240 ethnic groups live together in total
harmony. Cameroon is a politically stable country.

The great national parks harbour almost all the species found in Africa; Herds of 200 elephants or more live there without any border.

This version of the Cameroon HiGuide shows a nice small sample of this diversity. Once installed on your iPhone, you will be able to download complements directly from our hosts.

HiGuide has been designed to help you in the choice and preparation of your trips, as well as being your guide when you are there.

Before you leave, you can use it as an illustrated book where each Point of Interest can be located on a map.

Once you are there, HiGuide really becomes your guide: it knows where you are, thanks to the GPS feature in your iPhone. It also knows what you can discover thanks to its data bank. It can point out everything that is around you, sorting its Points of Interest by order of proximity.

In both cases, HiGuide associates a series of photos in a slideshow to each Point of Interest.

But that’s not all…You can add your own photos, your own Points of Interest.

On the spot, you won’t necessarily have easy access to Internet. It doesn’t matter! HiGuide contains its own maps, in great detail. It can act like a GPS and allow you to situate yourself.

HiGuide can be used without any access to the Internet. However, it can also work online to whirl you into the unlimited world of the Net without leaving HiGuide.

HiGuide is capable of «Push notification» : if you set this feature, it will send you a message of notification for each new content available for download, even if you are not in the HiGuide or if your iPhone is sleeping.

HiGuide includes a smart, incremental system to download any extensions and updates for all datas: maps, photos, audio and vidéo sequences.

This downloading system works silently in the background, on any kind of network from 2G to WiFi. If your contract with your telephone operator limits or overcharges the number of megabytes, you should prefer WiFi connexions when downloading : some extensions can be huge, especially for audio, video or maps.

A promotional version for this title is presented by our application «HiGuide World», which is our catalog and our window for all titles in the HGuide series.
