Best offline vector map app

This is the way to use offline vector maps like OpenAndroMaps on iOS - brilliant app and very responsive developer

Never Get Lost

I’ve used Cartograph for 9 years. Back then, it was the only app that could work well offline using free, downloaded maps of the world.
I bought the latest, lifetime version without a second thought. I use it so heavily that the price wasn’t relevant.
When I plucked up courage to migrate all my data to this new version, I was delighted to find many new features keeping it up with, or ahead of, the competition.
My choice, of the many possible options, is to use free, worldwide “OpenAndroMaps” enhanced by the free “Tiramisu” style (I’m slightly colourblind.)
I use it for:
Hiking to a mountain summit or finding and following a route to the nearest toilet in a city or an urban park.
Recording a route, which I’m walking or cycling, to share or just to find my way back.
Navigating in a mist or whiteout.
Getting myself out of the mess that my motorhome's SatNav just got me into.
I’m not “into” the technical side of mapping systems but find Carto3 easy to use and customise. Experts will probably appreciate some features that I happily ignore!

Beste Wander App

Als ich vor ein paar Jahren zum iPhone wechselte suchte ich (etwas verzweifelt) eine brauchbare Alternative zu Locus Maps. Mit dieser App habe ich sie gefunden 😊👍🏻 wenn man sich reingefuchst hat ist die App sehr gut!
Riesengroßes Plus ist die Kommunikation mit dem Entwickler, der immer schnell antwortet und bei Problemen und Fragen aller Art jederzeit hilft. Ich bin sehr zufrieden und sage Danke!
