### 3/5 — Mois de map gratuite

*2025-12-24*

Avant on pouvait télécharger 3 zones maintenant plus qu’une pourquoi ?

### 4/5 — Pretty good

*2025-07-27*

Great app to find trails, mileage tracking is way off

### 5/5 — Great map app

*2024-10-22*

Been using TerraMaps for over 10 years and find their maps excellent for off-line use when walking, skiing and kayaking. Loading a gpx file into the maps prior to a trip is easy. You can also record and save your tracks in gpx file format. Excellent app for the money.

### 5/5 — Très bien

*2024-10-21*

Super a conseiller

### 5/5 — Perfect

*2024-10-02*

Using it since years, worldwide. Great.

One improvement would be an option storing maps on a SD card.

### 5/5 — Une pépite cette appli

*2024-08-03*

Très bonne appli très complète avec des points d’eau c’est très utile pour sortir des sentiers battus

### 5/5 — All rounder

*2024-04-13*

I use Terra Map for my property and for bushwalking and I found it simple and effective in both situations. I’m very happy with the product and have a hope that future updates don’t try to fix what isn’t broken.

### 1/5 — No map downloads

*2023-10-10*

“Internet not available” when trying to download the maps, while all other resources works well and connection is quite fast.

**Developer response:** Hi,

the app reports "Internet not available" when the access to our servers is not possible (or too slow). If the Internet is properly available in your device, you should check if you have any firewall or other type of internet "control" that stops the access to our servers (terramap.app). The space you have available is for sure enough, our tiles (squares) average size is around 100MB.

### 5/5 — Walking

*2023-08-24*

This is great for tracking how far I have walked. It works without service. It is a gos where I am and helps me to find my way back from a walk when in unfamiliar surroundings.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2023-06-13*

I love this trail app as I download the local area maps and then hike and bike the trails without needing cell coverage.
Well worth the purchase!
