By far the best, most detailed charting app I’ve seen
Dkaiwhrbcisland
Great for hiking/trekking but has many other uses. Level of detail is down to individual trees - really amazing for map nerds (like me).
All historical aerial images are now available on your smartphone, taking you on a journey through time. Also new: selection of starting point within the routing functions by public transport or on foot, addition of ascent and descent to the route filtering options.
