Excellent!

This is fantastic!

Great app

Been the best NZ topomap app I’ve used. . Have used it for around 10 years and it’s still going strong with free map updates . Have contacted developer in past and he’s been approachable and helpful.

Outstanding

An excellent app. Extremely accurate and easy to use. Highly recommended.

Simple, reliable and not buggy.

Great snappy app with most stuff you need for knowing where you are in the bush. Good resolution maps and a quick gps locator. Be cool if you could source more track info or distances between the included landmarks and features particularly adjacent huts, peaks junctions etc.

Can’t load my purchases

Downloaded and paid for north and South Island maps. They show up in the get more maps page as downloaded, However when I go select map in settings; they aren’t there?

Excellent app

Excellent navigation tool.

This a great system which I use all the time when I’m in the backcountry. I’ve had it on my iPhone for several years. Great tracking tool, which has helped me several times when being caught by low cloud when hunting thar and chamy. It also works well in the bush.

Purchase Required

While I certainly don’t expect everything to be free, if you want to download a map at any useful resolution then you’ll have to pay. Only thing it really lets you do without paying is pin your position. There are great apps out there that are actually much less expensive (and don’t try to tell you they are “free”).

Response from developer

Sorry we can't meet your expectation that everything should be free - apps don't build themselves. The app is a free download that includes a 1:250,000 map of New Zealand. Other maps are in-app purchases. All the app's features are available without paying anything.

Awesome

Great app for tramping. Perfect as works in airplane mode. Only complaint is that when you load a new version you lose all your waypoints ( I’ve used waypoints to mark trails I’ve done and huts I’ve stayed in)

Nice and simple, your location on an offline map

Just what I needed

Don’t bother

It is on a par with a 1960’s AAmap.i had anticipated something I could use to zoom in on as with a local map I have always had to buy for each sector

Great tool, full North or South Island on 1:50.000 scale map with quick zoom in/out, gps tracking and place name finder

Great

This app is great. I have never seen it crash. They remind you if updated versions are available.

Good app

Have used this for years, good for back country NZ when there is no reception. Buy the extra maps, they are worth it.

App deleted by accident lost all my waypoints

Please link it to apple account so I don’t lose all my important waypoints

Love this app. Has worked in pretty extreme conditions which surprised me.

Awesome

Better than Garmin

This is a great app for detailed topographical info and it works with no internet connection. I use it to plan motor cycle rides. You can create waypoints easily at intersections and follow them. You will be located on the map if your device has GPS however this may be delayed. Get out there and use MapToaster

Super useful tool.

Replaces the need for a dedicated GPS unit in a lot of cases. I recommend shelling out the 7bucks for the high res maps. 5 stars.
