Update
Excellent App but how do you update to include for example the new motorways Puhoi to Warkworth ?
Map app reborn!
Big ups for the update, working great with iOS 11. And thanks for the support informing me of the update.
Great while it was current
I purchased both the North and South Island apps, and found them helpful. It all worked well. But now the maps are out of date, and the supplier does not appear to offer updates. From now on I will use IhikeGPSNZ which supplies free, up to date maps, allows tracks and waypoints - a much more comprehensive solution.

Older version less buggy
This version is too buggy which is a shame as I have come to rely on this app in so many situations (always take hard copy & compass). It never remembers your last zoom location and reverts out to the entire island on each launch. This never happened on the old version. Have to re-launch the app several times for the map to work properly. Look forward to a more stable version!

Map app nz
Very disappointed. No street names, at least for Cambridge and Hamilton. No indication of bicycle or waking trails. Would be a great buy for $.99 but way too much for $16. It is good for major roads. Pressing the I key does not work.

I have the same prob as Larry...hope it gets sorted real quick
Don't upgrade till he's fixed it.
This was a pretty good map app (although it didn't zoom in far enough) until he put out an upgrade. I naturally downloaded the upgrade only to find that the app now shuts down as soon as I've opened it. So if you want to pay $20 for an app that won't work on iPad 2 go ahead and buy this one.
Almost
Needs greater zoom detail.
Topo brilliance
Worth every cent. Quick location pinpointing and quick map/tile loading. Recommendations for next version: another zoom level and compass integration.

Thank you ,found this ideal in New Zealand on holiday in 2012
Could do with regular updates please .

Good imagery but...
...on my Ipod touch 4g scrolling and zooming are buggy. Searching is basic and for example if you want to find "Sandy Bay" you will get a list of Sandy Bays without qualification so you have to click on them all to find the one you are looking for!. On the Ipod (and Iphone) the closest zoom level is still not zoomed in enough to read the small text (contour line heights etc) without squinting (I have good eyes). An extra 2 or 3 zoom levels are necessary. On the Ipad with less pixel density this may not be an issue. Even for this (comparatively) cheap price I would expect better searching and easier and greater zooming.

Map app north island
Disappointed, I want a refund / search function does not work
Great app
I have only recently downloaded this ap and am yet to go into the bush. BUT - from my testing it seems great. Don't use it as a substitute to a paper map, but do use it to give yourself a current accurate position on a topo map. For my purposes it is perfect. I do hope that they will provide free upgrades to maps as they become available. Only time will tell.

excellent offline resource
just what I need to find my location when away from roads tramping etc.... and out of cellphone coverage. Much better terrain detail than google also.
Good but could be Great
Nice and simple, wish you could zoom in a bit further.
It would be great to see some additional GPS features such as waypoints, tracks and routes etc or at the very least a North Up/Track Up compass option.

It is what is says - nothing more
It does what it says- purely just Topographic maps, plus shows your location. That's it.
There were no reviews so I took a punt
and bought it anyway. Definitely not a replacement for a proper folding map and a compass! Now if only the App combined the off-line detail with something like Cyclemeter's Gps tracking, that would be worth the price.

Love the app
NZ doesn't have great mobile phone coverage off the beaten track, so being able to use this app is great. The data is all pre-loaded, so no reliance needed on a mobile signal. Great for finding your way back to those hidden away fishing and hunting spots. And good to take the 4WD off the asphalt.
Plus great value. If I was to buy all the North Island Topographical maps this covers it would have cost me over $1000!

This app is great for being lost in the bush and general direction finding but has no street name and number facility.It's no substitute for a navman
