Solid user experience and programming, this is how apps were supposed to be made. Includes offline maps, waypoint routing, storage and route tracking. No ads, no sneaky upsale strategy, no 3rd party tracking, no accounts to setup, just focused functionality, solid maps, and purpose. Thank you for making this.
Great app, but it's really struggling to download maps with a weaker network coverage. Update 24.10.2023: it's not that. It really wasn't able to download maps, even with good coverage. What I did instead: I removed and re-installed the app, and now it works. There must have been corrupted memory files or smth. It would be worth investigating the logs on your end. Pixel 5 phone. Thanks.
wo ist die Legende / Zeichenerklärung?
I have used this app for quite some time like it a lot! One factor it sets it above competing apps is, that you always see the time left on your planned route which gets updated as you progress. But: In the last two months, the app crashes all the time when I have a route selected to follow it. It might be an issue related to zooming and relying on offline maps. I wasn't able to pinpoint it. I use version 1.11.0 on a Pixel 7 pro with Android 13.
