You might have noticed that the natural history information in the iWalk Cornwall app is not only relevant to where you are on the walk but also what time of the year you are there. If you've done some walks in May you might have noticed some wild garlic and bluebell facts. Now these plants are dying back, the facts in the walks have now been replaced by other things, which may themselves change again later in the year. As we go back to re-check the walks, we're continually adding more seasonal layers so the richness and subtlety will continue to increase over time, even for walks you bought several years ago. We're also learning about new things all the time ourselves so we'll be sharing this within the walks. Also to help with planning a walk for a different time of the year (e.g. for a holiday) or to just find out more about the natural history, there's an option on the settings screen to display the points of interest for all seasons.
