User reviews

Brilliant

Love the detail, many different base map sources, different eras. Easy to use, wish similar available in other countries.

Perfect for identifying old paths

Love this idea, being able to overlay old maps over your GPS position showing where old public rights of way used to be which are now not featured on more modern OS maps.

Wow!

What an amazing map app, and it’s free. Thank you so much for this. I’m a delivery driver, and to have house names and numbers is just amazing. 5 stars.

Detail

If you’re a delivery driver, this app is absolutely essential. not only does it show great detail of the property including the house names but also the correct way to get to them. this app is brilliant. Good work guys keep it up

Really useful tool

The ability to compare [ast and present is really useful and interesting. The only things that I'd like are a zoom function (I can stretch the image using an iPhone or iPad but can't do that with the desktop version - and maybe a 1960's map.
