Comments on swisstopo for Android

★★★★☆ Frank Hillger · Jul 1, 2023
Downloading offline maps does not work, or at least not for larger tiles. (This issue seems to be known for a couple of years.) ... In addition to public transport, drinking water spots would be very helpful.
★★★★★ m myneur · Oct 7, 2024
Best maps in world. The best readable and the most detailed rendering at the same time. Powerful layers like ski routes or gradients.
★★★★★ David Van Bergen · Oct 2, 2025
The app contains the official maps of Switzerland, which are of great quality. And this for free, plus so many adds-on such as hiking trail, public transport stops, route planning options (one of the best tools!) and so much more.
★☆☆☆☆ Kiere Luurs · Mar 12, 2026
I have big problems with off-line maps, in combination with ski-routes. Maps simply are not displayed, or vanish when changing some setting. I have already notified them last year. Now in preparation of another tour, things are still hopeless. I hope to at least find a work-around. These are the best maps, the route information in combination with my location would be very important.
★★☆☆☆ Daniel Meyer · Aug 8, 2023
I have used this app for quite some time like it a lot! One factor it sets it above competing apps is, that you always see the time left on your planned route which gets updated as you progress. But: In the last two months, the app crashes all the time when I have a route selected to follow it. It might be an issue related to zooming and relying on offline maps. I wasn't able to pinpoint it. I use version 1.11.0 on a Pixel 7 pro with Android 13.
★★☆☆☆ Nautilus (CptNautilus) · Apr 12, 2024
I have been using these apps for years now. It used to be the best map app for Switzerland. I was using to prepare my trips at home (I have the paid version) and on the field. Alas, since the latest update, it makes my phone overheat to the point of burning my fingers and deplete the battery so fast that it has become useless in the field, where I can't recharge my battery, and it has to last for the whole day. Samsung Galaxy S10, Android 10
