Topo maps

Unread postby Tennhunter3 » Fri Jan 09, 2015 2:07 pm

Hey guys I'm looking at getting a topo map program on my I phone. Do any of you guys use any that are decent and worth buying ? I use compass and google earth very often but topo program I'm using is just terrible .

I use backcountry navigator and offlinemaps for Android. Both let you cache maps so you can turn off mobile data and still use them. Offlinemaps is a little more difficult to use but it's decent. They are both free

I just started using the Onxmaps for smart phone. Wow! What a difference. Well worth the money.

My trails is pretty good, you can switch layers from topo to arial and such. Best part is its free.

Don't rely on this to navigate with.. Mine kept showing wrong direction and bouncing around... Also had problems with it locking up and not displaying right.
