Description

Kartasto is a modern map browser that packs an amazing experience for hiking, hunting, orienteering, or just enjoying your time outdoors. Only Kartasto offers full featured apps for iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch and Mac.

Free app comes with a large selection of built-in maps in topographic, nautical, and aerial imagery styles. Save places as map markers that sync between your devices over iCloud. It is easy and fun to measure distances and draw paths on the map, or use Look Around to see street level imagery at any address.

Kartasto Pro one-time purchase unlocks a professional grade feature set. Add your own maps and data layers from standard APIs, and bring in GPX, GeoJSON or Shapefile data. You can even draw notes directly on the map using touch or pencil!

Kartasto makes it easy to plan your upcoming hike by letting you download map tiles for offline use, view up-to-date weather forecasts, or draw tracks on the map and save them to GPX files. After your hike, graph out its speed and altitude data.

For hunters, integration with Oma Riista lets you import hunting areas using area code. Share your location with a private group of other Kartasto users.

Build your own dog tracker by installing separate Beacon app to another device and pairing it with Kartasto. Its position can then be tracked on the map in Kartasto.

Nice interface, syncs across devices, respects your privacy

I was looking for an app to replace Gaia GPS, due to concerns about their privacy practices after they joined Outside… and was really pleased to find this nice suite of apps by an indie developer who really gets the privacy issue! It has a nice, consistent interface across iPhone, iPad and Mac and I can drop GPX files into the Kartasto folder in iCloud and my data become instantly available on all my devices. But be warned, it’s primarily an app for viewing your waypoints and tracks on a map and has only limited navigation features.
