Confusing purchase options.
Heads up new purchase people. I found all the various purchase options a bit confusing.
I just I assumed $60 to buy the initial app included one time, off-line maps. (I can live without multiple updates each year, it’s not like the hills and valleys will change much)
Only to discover it didn’t. It will only work when on online. I now have to pay even more for off-line maps and again, there’s multiple options and sadly, many/most of them subscription.
When on a pension I’m always looking for single, one off purchase. I will need to wait till next fortnight to spend another $60 to $100 and does this mean I will have two subscription fees, the app and the maps. Makes this app quite expensive.

We have found this to be a great product for our travels. Service from Michelle and David for any issues excellent.
ExplorOz help
Once again, amazingly fast response from Help desk. No-one else even comes close to their service.
Great mapping
We have been using ExplorOz mapping system for a lot of years now travelling all over Australia and found an absolutely excellent constantly being improved all the time
Expensive but good
Good product, but the $ add up. Definitely worth it for someone constantly travelling, but not for the occasional user. I’m out
Ah, the fine details…🤦🏻♂️
After spending money on two separate H_ma maps, Dirt M_p and a few others, I came across ExploreOZ from AllOfOffroad channel on YouTube. When I realised how information rich ExploreOZ is and not unnecessarily feature rich, I thought I had found a good app. And it is! The shared notes, photos, track information is just amazing. The app is way “lighter” than H_ma, less cumbersome and tracks do not disappear straight away when you zoom out. I also bought the offline map thinking: “Great, I bought a map, pay for the app and the map spent about $100 thinking I now OWN a map. How wrong I was. I realised later I basically bought just another subscription because the offline map is NOT mine regardless of the big initial bucks. The map is accessible only for 4 years! Then I have to buy the “license” again. It’s kinda like you buy a book from the bookstore but 4 years later to have to go back and pay again because you can’t access your book. How ridiculous! It should be called subscription. Very disappointed. I will now go back to Memory Maps where I do own what I once paid for. The mapping feature is much better and there’s absolutely no dodgy details about offline map that is a subscription for 4 years only. Nobody wants subscription. Once I pay for a map, I want to own it. Just like you buy a paper map. Because no updates for 4 years either. Cheaters!

Have been using ExplorOz for a number of years now in the VHC and FNQ found them to be user friendly and accurate. Tried Hema and found them not user friendly and a waste of money since they sold out to a corporation.
ExplorOz has a great back of house support in dealing with issues, requests for help are always responded to quickly and directly by an technical support person here in Australia.

Not worth it
Pay and pay again . Also have to pay for hi res maps
Review
The whole turn by turn navigation to get to a destination is just clunky and rather not intuitive - I don’t understand why it can be developed to be like google maps - in the end I use google maps then only use tis app to see the off road tracks.
The best maps for exploring
I have used ExplorOz maps for 10 years now and find them the best of all mapping Apps, especially if you want to explore our wide open land. We have done all the desert remote tracks and found the ExplorOz maps gave more accurate information than any other. Their tracker App is also great to use and allows your loved one to follow your journeys. Highly recommend.

Excellent software, maps are impeccable.
Just Me
Pretty Good …….But
This app needs CarPlay to remain competitive and relevant. I’m tired of squinting at my phone.
Otherwise pretty good.

Bungle Bungle Caravan Park
Large park, all dirt, very dusty. Some attempt at grass but it’s not working very well. Large gravel sites. They do a BBQ dinner most nights but at $50/adult plus $60/night it was getting out of our price range
ExplorOz
Great app for planning and travel. I have used the app extensively during my trips throughout Australia but equally important is the customer service provided by David and Michelle. They deserve a medal for the respectful and helpful service they provide to their subscribers. They can definitely give the multinationals a lesson in Customer Service, especially the banks and insurance companies. Well done.

Good App
Got this app when then Gov. mapping shut down some years back. We were using Avenza but when we had to pay worked out this was much cheaper. Haven’t used any other apps as we’re quite happy with this one. It does what we need & we have been all though the Simpson, GRR CSR Binns GCR Lorella before it closed Surveyor General Corner & more

Does the job - but
Purchased eotopo offline maps in May 2022. Map version purchased was de-supported by the app in Jan 2025. Very (very) disappointing given the cost…and a waste of money in hindsight.
Best off road maps
Fabulous features, easy to use, just love the ability to track and know exactly where I am.
Map view
The EOTopo map view is the best map screen I have seen so far, much better than google maps. The Red roads contrast well against the off white and light green background making it much easier to see the roads compared to google’s grey roads or the Streets and Paths option available in this app. The snail trail is also easy to read.

Love my ExploreOz app!
Awesome app for exploring Oz! Track driving and getting out of town and onto the beaten track!
