Frequently asked questions

Renewing your Iphigénie subscription depends on how you originally subscribed. Here are the different possibilities:

1. You subscribed via IGN Rando

The end of the IGN Rando service brought automatic subscription renewals to an end.

→ To continue using Iphigénie, you need to manually renew your subscription:

2. Automatic renewal via mobile (App Store or Google Play)

If you subscribed on an iPhone or Android device, your subscription renews automatically each year.

📍 You can check or manage your subscription:

  • On iOS: Settings > App Store > Subscriptions
  • On Android: Play Store > Account > Payments & subscriptions
3. Automatic renewal via the website

Subscriptions purchased on the official Iphigénie website are also automatically renewed, with no action required on your part. You’ll receive a confirmation email before each renewal.

4. You subscribed to Iphigénie J or X

As these services are no longer supported by our team, it is not possible to renew your Iphigénie J or X subscription.

Yes, you can cancel your Iphigénie subscription at any time, directly through the platform you used to purchase it (website, App Store or Google Play Store).

📧 If you’re unsure how to cancel, our customer support team is here to help

The price of the Iphigénie subscription is gradually increasing from €14.99 to €19.99 at your next renewal. This price update applies to existing subscribers and is part of an effort to harmonize our pricing.

This rate remains advantageous: it is still lower than the standard price of €24.99, which has applied to new subscribers for the past two years. This gradual increase will bring the subscription up to the standard rate the following year, when prices are reviewed again.

This price increase directly supports the development of Iphigénie, including improvements to the user experience, the addition of new topographic maps, and ongoing enhancements to the app.

👉 Good to know:

  • You can cancel or change your subscription at any time through your phone’s settings.
  • This preferential rate is only available for automatic renewals. If you cancel your subscription or subscribe via IGN Rando, the €19.99 rate can no longer be maintained.

Managing your Iphigénie subscription depends on the platform you originally used to purchase it. Here’s what to do in each case:

📱 Via the App Store (iPhone / iPad)
  1. Open the Settings app on your Apple device.
  2. Tap your name at the top of the screen.
  3. Select Subscriptions.
  4. Choose Iphigénie to manage or cancel your subscription.
🤖 Via the Google Play Store (Android)
  1. Open the Google Play app.
  2. Go to Payments & subscriptions > Subscriptions.
  3. Select Iphigénie to modify or cancel your subscription.
🌐 Via the Iphigénie website (Outdoor Pack)
  1. Go to: https://tracks.iphigen.ie
  2. Log in with your credentials.
  3. Go to My Account.
  4. Click Manage my subscription to modify or cancel it.
🧭 If you subscribed via IGN Rando

Following the end of the synchronization between IGN Rando and Iphigénie, you now need to manage your subscription directly through the new platform you used to renew it (Iphigénie website, App Store or Google Play Store).

Purchasing the Outdoor Pack gives you access to several complementary services while keeping your full Iphigénie experience:

What’s included in the Outdoor Pack:
  • Iphigénie Carto (full access to maps)
  • Whympr Premium (the app dedicated to outdoor and mountain activities)
  • Web App on PC (an interface for planning and viewing your maps from a computer)
🔒 No impact on your existing Iphigénie subscription

Purchasing the pack does not affect your current use of the Iphigénie app in any way:

  • Your data is preserved: tracks, waypoints, saved maps, etc.
  • No changes to the interface or features: you’ll find your usual environment just as before.
  • All the tools within the app remain available, including GPS tracking, route planning, and import/export.

📌 In short: the Outdoor Pack is an advantageous add-on, with no risk of losing or changing your Iphigénie experience.

To get the most out of your Outdoor Pack (Iphigénie + Whympr Premium + Web App for PC), there are a few simple steps to follow:

🔗 1. Link your Iphigénie and Whympr accounts

First, you need to link your Iphigénie and Whympr accounts from your smartphone.

👉 You need to have an active account on both apps.

📘 Follow the step-by-step guide here:

How do I link my Iphigénie account to Whympr?

💻 2. Access the Web App on PC

Once your accounts are linked, you can use the Iphigénie Web App to plan your outings online.

  1. Go to: https://tracks.iphigen.ie
  2. Click “Create a route”
  3. Select “Log in with an account…” (use your Iphigénie credentials)

🎯 In short: to activate your Outdoor Pack, simply:

  • Create an account on Iphigénie and Whympr
  • Link the two accounts via mobile
  • Access the Web App to plan your routes from a computer

Changing your phone or tablet does not mean losing your subscription or your data, as long as you follow a few simple steps:

📲 1. Recover your Iphigénie subscription

If you change devices, simply log in with your Iphigénie credentials (email address and password).

Your subscription will be detected automatically.

👉 If you have trouble accessing your maps, you can restore your purchase manually by following this guide:

🔗 I have a subscription but can no longer access my maps

☁️ 2. Recover your saved tracks (Cloud)

To recover your GPS tracks, you must have enabled Iphigénie Cloud on your old device.

✔️ Enable Cloud backup:
  1. Open the Iphigénie app
  2. Go to Settings > Cloud & Storage
  3. Enable the Cloud option
  4. Allow access to your contacts and select your Gmail account

Your tracks will sync automatically. On your new device, they will appear in the list tabs after a few seconds. You can then:

  • View your old tracks
  • Select which ones you want to keep or delete using the “Edit” function

⚠️ Important: if Cloud was not enabled on your old device, unfortunately, it is unlikely that you will be able to recover your tracks. Automatic synchronization is not retroactive.

🛠 Need help?
