Very good app with lots of bike routes on IGN’s base maps.But it isn’t comprehensive by any stretch, missing many signed and designated routes. Plus, the view is set bizarrely: it’s impossible to read labels, which shrink as you zoom in. So you can’t tell what town you might be heading for, nor which road you are traveling on. This seems like it would be a preference setting in the app, but it seems impossible to change.
IGN offline maps anywhere in France

I downloaded app but can not connect to the map store. I get a cannot connect to the outdoors gps server.Update: By restarting my iPad 3 it takes me to the home page and I can connect and download mapsSo I was able to download a specific offline map yesterday when I got connected. I needed to email support to find where the map is stored and they responded promptly.A nice feature is you can chose from 3 sizes to download exactly the area you are interested in. Once downloaded, you can access offline while traveling. Now you can have offline maps for non urban areas.
Too dense, no help

Lots of incredibly detailed maps, but the resolution is so low that, when you zoom in, the maps are useless. No help finding hiking trails or circuits in my area, which is an ecotourism region with plenty of trails. The subscription has no trial period. For hiking information, look elsewhere.
Awkward

Seriously shallow learning curve. Almost too much info for cycling. How does one follow such tiny map info while riding and trying to navigate. Dense app. Not great.
