iBurn is back for 2015 with some killer new features! iBurn is an offline map, compass, and guide for the Burning Man art festival, crafted with love as a gift for the community. We hope you like it!

New in 2015:

* Nearby Mode: Quickly find what's happening around you right now
* Improved Search: Try "bacon" or "coffee"
* Onboarding: You'll like it
* Geocoder: Always shows your current Playa Address (e.g. 6:30 & Ballyhoo)
* Favorites now have their own tab
* Walking & Biking Estimates
* Improved table cells to include more relevant information
* Emojis Everywhere!
* Optimized for iOS 8 (we even got some Swift code in there now)

Still packing the features you love:

* Compass mode
* Custom map pins
* Event filtering
* Every public listing for Art Camps & Events (from PlayaEvents API)
* Works on iPhone, iPad & Android

Want to help us make it even better? Get involved! iBurn is free and open source: https://github.com/Burning-Man-Earth/iBurn-iOS & https://github.com/burning-man-earth/iburn-android

---------------

Note: Camp locations are restricted until the gates open due to Burning Man regulations. The passcode will be released to the public at 10am on Sunday 8/30. Don't worry too much, the app should also automatically unlock itself once you're there.

Follow @iBurnApp on Twitter or Facebook for this year's passcode, or ask a Black Rock Ranger, Playa Info or Burning Man Staffer.
