You should see two little arrows bottom right to blow it up. It is full size on my ipad
Thanks, I'll have a go.
In struggling badly with mine , it can find me on it’s map but won’t search the area I’m in or other areas I pick
I’ve had to use search for sites which I downloaded before I left for Europe at the advice of funsters
the new look is ok but at the moment it ain’t working for me

I'm assuming you have an Android phone or tablet, I cant speak for Apple devices, Have you tried a forced stop and then restarting the app? If not try that, if your not familiar with forced stop go to settings, then apps, then scroll down until you find camper contact, tap on that and then tap forced stop, then come out of that and try the app again, this can fix a few problems with some apps.

Just fired up CC again this time it forced me to update. Had to do the forgotten password bit, email came through instantly.
I quite like it.
Edit:
Running on Android.

Me neither, I used Searchforsites all around the Black Forest area and it was very good and much easier to use.Scotch mist

Same here Carolyn.
It works fine on my phone, but not on my tablet (both Android), whereas the old App worked a treat on the tablet, albeit in portrait view only.
I have uninstalled, reinstalled, and carried out the advice of Android users above, but once I get to page two and press the start button, the App closes down on me.

If you had read the install info you would have known you have to reset your password.

Are you referring to their phone app? I am still trying to use it as a website on a Windows PC without any luck

Just been having another play with it, still quite like it easy to use and runs a lot faster.
Don't like the fact that every time you scroll the map you have to press the "search here" button it also has a habit of turning off the "Motorhome Parkings" filter sometimes when you scroll.
One big omission is the number of places on an Aire, if there are only a few spaces we like to have a few backups.
Also no satellite view.

I tried it in Firefox on Linux, runs OK but can't find a way of logging in and without logging in it doesn't show all the sites, so unusable.

You are right Lenny it would be good to see number of spaces and maximum length although the last omission gives me an excuse for trying to squeeze it where it doesn't fit

Yep, same as Chrome, but that is my point. They seem to have gone over to a "pay only" model, but without producing a paid for App for Windows.
I usually view MHF on my PC and when I see a post about what looks like a good aire I used to go to CC to look for it and then click on "view on map". That brought me to Google maps and once I have had a good look, including satellite, if I liked it I saved it on Google maps with a category for each country. Stuffed now.
Well I've just tried it on my PC and it seems to work ok, I typed in a location, in this case Briancon which is in the French alps, picked out a site (the municipal one) clicked on info and copied and pasted the latitude and longitude into google earth and was able to see the satellite view and street level view.
Edit: it works with google maps the same way just paste in the Lat and Long.

You need to do a comparison with the app I found online it only shows about a third of the Aires. The old version did that if you weren't logged in but showed them all when logged in, can't log in on the new website.

Thanks, found it now. I was just trying to move around the maps and find the places that way. No longer allowed by the look of it.
BUT the search engine is VERY clunky. Firstly if you do as they suggest and type in "Spain" in the search box you end up with a map of Spain with only a fraction of the Aires showing! So I put in "Briancon" and hit search and a message comes up "No results for Briancon". Eventually found out that that is because I had not put the correct "accent" (is that the word?) under the "c"! So just typed "Brian" in and then chose from the list. But that is not going to be very good if an accent appears at the beginning of the word though!
Does anybody know how I can get the "accents" on my computer that those damn foreigners use please?
I'm confused now Lenny (not hard to do
) Do you mean you can't log in on the new app? if so you need to tap on login then enter your email and then tap on forgotten my password they will send you an email to reset your password once you've reset the password you should be able to login, the reason I think you have to set a new password is because the password format has changed you need at least 8 characters one must be upper case it must include numbers and a special character like % or $ hope that's helpful.
I didn't use an accent but i found that if you type briancon and leave the cursor at the n, Briancon will come up as a suggested place however if you tap the space bar you will not get any results.

Ignore this - I posted I couldn't find the filters feature - but I've found it now.

I found this in the FAQ section.
- What are the differences between the app and the Campercontact website?
On campercontact.com you will find all the motorhome sites with basic information to sketch a basic image. Through the website you are (for the time being) unable to log in with your account, but you can do so in the app. There you will also have the possibility save your favorite motorhome sites (as PRO-user), for example, or to share a review. In addition, you will see ads on the website and in the FREE-version of the app, but you won’t if you have purchased the PRO-version of the app. - Is it correct that I am unable to log onto the website?
Yes, that is correct. To completely optimize Campercontact, you can use the app. After you log in there you can, amongst other things, save your favourite motorhome sites (as PRO-user) or share experiences with other motorhome owners.
Not sure how others are able to find all the categories as on the previous version. Sat at a site on the Dordoigne with three other sites within one mile and unable to find them listed anywhere on the new CC. Having to type in a place name and not look at a map is a pain, especially when the sites do not appear for that place name. Using other apps now.

And does it show all of the sites close to your location?
