Does not work on my iPad
Please fix.
Gone out of business
I’ve been wondering why the app hasn’t been updated in years. Well, it won’t be, because the website says they ceased trading on 31 Dec 2021. Shame, it was a good app but its really getting dated.
Update?
Great app BUT still needs regular updates.
Great App - Needs an update
This is a very useful app, facing significant competition from the OS app - but the offline capabilities are invaluable. However it needs an update, if only to make the most of new devices with larger screens.
Great to hear an update is in the pipeline - can’t wait!

Response from developer
Hi Outdoor C, I am please to say that we have a new version of RouteBuddy Atlas in build at this moment in time. It will support all screens as well as the latest version of iOS. Hope that helps, Sophie at RouteBuddy
Lost purchased map
Was OK but cannot retrieve purchased map from itunes after changing phone. Restore purchases doesnt work. Since free OS mobile maps are now supplied with paper maps, would not use Route Buddy again
Doesn’t work on PadOS
Looks like this app doesn’t get updated anymore, it’s tired and dated. Still works on my iPhone not my IPad though. So what do I do with all my Routebuddy Maps .. don’t waste your money on buying the Mac version either as that is also tired and dated. Look for other map suppliers.
Dated and tired now
The fact that the last update was 3 years ago screams lack of development. Yes it was good (3 years ago) but other mapping apps - even OS maps - offer way more features and seamless cloud syncing of routes.
Beware GB update
Having updated an already purchased OS map I was forced to purchase the same map again, which didn’t download.
My iPad was then attacked and I was advised to close the page.
Security from Route Buddy needs to be updated..

Fantastic App
This app is fantastic! The maps are high quality and the offline viewing works a treat when out and about with no internet.
I do also have the Mac companion app (RouteBuddy) in order to manage purchased maps, route creation and upload to my mobile devices. Sadly, though, the current version (4.2.1) on my Mac crashes constantly.
If you're happy just using the iOS app on iPad/iPhone then no worries! BUT be aware that maps purchased and downloaded via the iOS app will NOT transfer back to the PC/Mac app at a later date if you decide you want to use them there too. It can also be quite time-consuming trying to create a route on a 4" iPhone screen!
One minor request I would have is to be able to show/hide crosshairs - I don't always want these filling up the centre of my screen.

5 Stars ! out a tight spot on occasion
Works Well- easy to use - got me out a tight spot on occasion - falling low cloud on mountain . gave very accurate location. I mainly use Routebuddy for Mountain biking planning and ride use- I have tried others - this one works best.
