Ratings and Reviews
Hiking in France with one app
Topographic maps are outstanding for hiking in France, because based on historical geographical databases from the main national research institute. All small and marked paths are included. Even paths below tree cover are correct, despite being invisible from satellite or aerial photos, thanks to IGN agents walking there with recording instruments.
Maps good but poor help files and support
Maps are fine but help files are out of date and how to actually download a map for offline viewing is well hidden under Store > and the little '+' symbol in the top left in the latest version. I missed this and emailed support a week before a trip but got no reply. Tried loading the maps to see if this would download them but they disappeared as soon as I was out of signal.
User Guide has screen images for an older version where downloading was much more obvious. Help Centre doesn't even have an FAQ for how to download maps.
No planning route option
It’s a basic mapping application so gets 2 stars. It is without the features you would expect from modern navigation app. I’ve got the pro IGN version for France, maps are okay, but there seems to be no way to plan/plot a route prior to setting off. These guys need to look at what OS maps provide for the UK to see what functionality they are missing. It’s a poor offering and desperately needs improvement
