Offline topo maps
Is what I needed
Terrible compared to pro
I had pro on my android but just switched to Apple. XE is awful. I can’t search waypoints anymore. I uploaded a trip online but I can’t see what’s on the trip from my phone. It kept crashing after trying to open the trip. Why can’t you just make pro available to iPhone?
Not good for iPhone
I had this app on my android a few years ago and loved it. I have an iPhone now so I figured I wouldn’t even look at other apps. This app is basic at best. It does not show me how to return to a waypoint. It records my track but I cannot change the color of the paths so I can see different trips. Would not recommend for iPhone.

Not user friendly
Downloaded the app, checked a trail I wanted to follow - tried marking the map for planning overnight camps, didn’t work - tried downloading the map, didn’t work - tried paying membership, didn’t work.
Gave up and deleted the app
Don’t waste time on this app

Good detail
A lot of detail in the default map
What is going on???
Now I can’t download maps! Wow!
Response from developer
Make sure you are zoomed in to the level that you have downloaded those maps at. Please be in touch to tell us device, map source, and area of download.
I know you can do better
I love the app and the concept of being able to turn your phone into an offline tracking system. Soooo cool. There are just way too many bugs. When switching between maps in the layers panel, as soon as you select a different map, the view is suddenly way off track from where you started. Ex: I was plotting waypoints in Jackson, Wyoming and I switched from one overlay to another, when I exited the map selection window, I was magically in Africa. Why… Why… The “enter/return” button on the keypad has no effect when you are trying to search for an overlay or map. I could go on but I’m not getting paid to troubleshoot your app. My platform is the iPhone 12 Pro. Very Very Very Buggie 🪳🪳🪳🪳🪳🪳🪳🪳

A developer has made updates regarding switching and map center because I agree it is not proper behavior.
Great navigation app #1 for offline maps
It’s quite straight forward. I was able to create trails and save them for the future if anything were to happen. I can count on the app working quick and accurately in a scenario in which cell phone services were down.
