Brilliant

Great reliable app, highly recommended

Amazing

I love this app. To have all the OS maps at 1:25,000 and 1:50,000 downloaded on my phone. I use it everyday! I particularly like the optimise route feature which makes planning bike rides so easy.

Great app

Iโ€™ve used Memory Map for many years, both on PC and IOS. It is one of my most used apps and has served me well in reliability and features. Once the more detailed maps are purchased they remain on the device and do not require mobile or data coverage. As long as your device can pick up the GPS signal it works great. (Iโ€™ve never had a situation where I wasnโ€™t able get GPS signals). I love this app, in fact Iโ€™d be lost without it!

The previous review was from two years ago (2024) and still valid. I still use this legacy app but Iโ€™m now also now using MemoryMap For All. MM4A is packed with additional features and is fantastic. Well done Memory Map! It took a bit of getting used to but once you become familiar with how it works it is very good.

The best of its kind

This is my goto map app for 4wd and country travel. It has proven more reliable and predictable than others, and gives smooth access to a decent range of third party maps. Hema plus Australian state topo maps is all I use. Offline performance is flawless once you are sure you have loaded the complete map. My only complaint is that some aspects of map ownership and access are obscure and differ over time, and between apps on portable and desktop screens. Support is great though and I always get fast answers to questions.

Clunky

There can be no criticism of the charts they are excellent and I have used them more times than I can count. That said the format of this set up is hugely complicated. All I want to do is access the chart itโ€™s just too difficult in this day and age surely the system can be modernised to save this inexorable drudgery.
