Before your first outing
Where does the current app cover?
The current App Store edition contains 426 curated playground destinations in San Diego County. The nationwide map is part of the update awaiting review.
Can I use the San Diego guide offline?
The San Diego guide and its built-in map are bundled with the app. Your saved places and private notes stay on your device. Online map imagery, external source pages, and the upcoming nationwide service need an internet connection.
Do I need an account?
No account is required. You can keep saved places and private notes locally. Optional location use and external map services are explained in the privacy policy.
Are the park scores visitor ratings?
No. They are estimates based on documented features, not visitor-review averages or safety assessments. Check the park operator's current information for access, hours, closures, and facilities.
Why does the App Store say PlayScout?
PlayScout is the name of the currently released edition. Playground Atlas is the name of the submitted update. Both use the same App Store listing, so existing users will receive the update through the normal App Store process.
