Really nice app. Would be great to see a legend that goes with this map.

This is a great mapping app, and ad free! Presently it is a bit basic, but I have suggested some enhancements to the author, and hopefully it will become even better in later revisions.

Very good app for using the free OS downloadable maps offline. One question there is a distinct detail difference between the cloud map and the offline map. Is it possible to have the same level of detail with the offline map?

I downloaded the previous version and had to keep downloading the 2.6gb map data. Every time it finished Downloading nothing would show and would start downloading again. Gave up for a few months. Downloaded the app again today. Downloaded 2.6gb data. Nothing showed. Every time I start app it downloads map again. Given up

For some reason the download of offline map won't work says download will only work over Wi-Fi while this is on and working it then displays the download for a millisecond before going back to download needs Wi-Fi. I have a galaxy A70 phone looked at permissions and that is OK so stumped.
