Great App for Hiking
Although I agree with a couple of the other reviews regarding the lack of being able to select for download more than one map at a time and the lack of seamless adjoining of maps, I really have enjoyed using this app while hiking in the Canadian Rockies and the Cascade Mountains in Washington State. And I really like that you can download maps in advance for when you are hiking in areas with no cell coverage.
For now, I am only going to give it 4-stars because I would like to see the following features added in a future version:
- Ability to select more than one map at a time for download.
- Ability to use iCloud to sync Waypoints, Routes and Maps between iOS devices.
- Add an option to display a compass overlay (or at least a true bearing display) so that you can align the displayed map with True North.
- The ability to sort Waypoints by distance from your current location.
- Show the distance and bearing to each Waypoint from your current position (when on the Waypoints page.)
Otherwise, great app!
