Not impressed

On the whole I am not impressed with the app and my premium subscription.
Here are a few issues I’m having to show how the App does not perform well
1. As I’m using the offline maps I have downloaded, the battery decreases extremely quickly, you can even see the battery percentage go down as you view the maps. I use a couple of other mapping app (Gaia GPS and Galileo) and this never happens using these apps.
2. The individual ‘loading’ of the map tiles when zooming in and out of an (offline) map is very poor, I must wait quite a while before the screen is properly filled with the map. But also, each time I move around an area or from one zoom level to another, the ‘loading’ often map struggles to keep up.
3. To save battery I close the app whilst I’m offline and in the wilds, however, if I reopen the apps I have to go into the Offline map section and tap on my offline map in order to view my downloaded offline map, the app does not have a default setting to open where I last left off.
The downloaded offline map in question I’m using is less than 500mb of memory so the processor in the phone should easily deal with this.
There’s better apps out there but the problem is they don’t have the detail of the OS maps, it’s a judgement you must make...
