Pinfold

Pinfold is an offline catalogue for your KML and KMZ files. Import the places you care about once — trails, travel itineraries, scouted locations, survey points, saved pins exported from other mapping tools — then browse and navigate them anywhere, with no signal required. Most KML files come from somewhere else: Google Earth exports, GIS tools, a guide who shared a route, a colleague's site survey. Pinfold gives those files a permanent, organized home on your device instead of leaving them buried in email attachments and downloads folders. BUILT FOR OFFLINE • Load a file once with a connection, then use it completely offline. • Icons and photos referenced by the file are cached on import, so they're there when you're off the grid. • Nothing depends on a server — your library lives on your device. BROWSE YOUR PLACES • Navigate the original folder hierarchy from the KML, exactly as it was authored. • Tap any placemark for its full details: description, photos, and any extended data fields the file carries. • Custom placemark icons and colors from the file's styles are preserved. SEE IT ON THE MAP • View all of a file's pins together on an embedded map. • Nearby pins group into numbered clusters when you zoom out, so dense files stay readable. NAVIGATE WITH THE APP YOU ALREADY USE • Open any place in Apple Maps, Google Maps, Waze, Organic Maps, Guru Maps, OsmAnd, Magic Earth, Citymapper, and more. • Set a default map app for one-tap navigation, or pick each time. • Apps you don't have installed are hidden automatically. IMPORT FROM ANYWHERE • Share a .kml or .kmz file to Pinfold from any app. • Open KML/KMZ files directly from the Files app or attachments. • Import several files at once. KEEP YOUR LIBRARY IN SYNC (OPTIONAL) • Turn on iCloud to keep your imported files on every device signed in to the same iCloud account. • Your files stay in your private iCloud — Pinfold has no account and no servers. PRIVATE BY DESIGN • No account, no sign-up, no ads, no tracking. • Your location is shown only on your device and never leaves it. Pinfold is a viewer and launcher: it reads your files faithfully and hands you off to the navigation app you prefer. Bring your places; take them anywhere.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Pinfold at none against FlightFox's 2. FlightFox's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs weekly) and iOS requirement (17.6 vs 26.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
