Leave a Review UK Map
Worked like a dream
Spent 2 weeks in Scotland with a car that wouldn't let our Garmin recharge. This was a perfect resource as it not only showed us where we were going but also surrounding points of interest. We were also able to use it on hikes and the downloaded Ordinance maps was great in detail. Would recommend to anyone with iPad going to the UK.Show lessSprucegoosedeux
Great stuff!
I'm a bit of a map and geography nut. This is THE BEST for anyone interested in the UK.Jon A in Oregon
A bit overpriced for what you get
Reasonable program but has it's limits. My main use would be for offline mapping with no internet support so I wanted a program with nice map/waypoint downloading capabilities. Map downloads limited to the newer UK Ordinance Survey maps. These maps do not have as much detail as do the older maps, particularly in regard to old megalithic sites (the main reason I bought the program). Downloading map areas works quite well. However, the 25K and 10K scale maps don't seem to be a lot different in the information they contain, just more pixels. No option to input user defined waypoints. Pricey for what you get.Show lessavo man
could not zoom out
this app looked very good at first, and then when i zoomed in i could not zoom back out. i exited the program and when i went back in it was still zoomed in..?Shortie-pants
UK Maps is brilliant!
Just returned from a two week driving trip through Yorkshire, the Lake District and North Wales and cannot say enough good things about this app. I had my Nuvi GPS also but had no need for it with UK Map on the iPad. I was always pinpointed on the map and every road no matter how narrow or rural was shown. Just remember to download the higher resolution map blocks for areas where you will traveling with an Internet connection before going and it will be effortless. Sorry Nuvi but your travel days are over.Show lessOkpeach
So much offline for England and Scotland
Even the gazetteer shows monuments, parks, forests, waterways, ferries and more. When you want a local map, download it online by pressing a tile or tiles. Bigger locations have many tiles and take longer to download. No required GPS ever.susiech
Superb app
I like the U.S. but travel to the U.K. from time to time and have always liked the maps there. Navigation in England is much more a challenge than in the midwest U.S. Anyway, this is one of the first apps I bought on my iPad 3G and it has been excellent! There were some tech issues leading up to the UK iPad release but the developer was very responsive and got them fixed.
What I adore about this app is that there is no delay while maps download. The built-in Maps on the iPad is really good, but it does rely on an active data link for the images. UK Maps has them all on the local machine, and you can download and store additional street-level detail for selected areas. I am working out a five week trip for my daughter this summer and this mapping is very useful for that.
I would also note that last year I was over and had a Garmin GPS unit with me. This worked very well in getting me right to my next destination but at the cost of losing perspective about what was around me as I went, as I hadn't pored over maps picking the routes ahead of time. This UK Maps app would restore that perspective, it's a pity the iPad wasn't out last year!
Although not by this developer, the Mini A-Z Map of London is also a good implementation of a machine-resident map. Like the UK Maps, it will show you your position using the 3G's GPS when it can see the satellites.Show lessRolleicordVb
Terriffic app!!!
Great job by the developer! The only feature I could think to ask for would be a bookmarking function...IowaTVman
