WeTrek (ex IGNrando') users say on Google Play
Works well. Easier to use than our online British Ordnance Survey maps. I like the function that gives an easy to see distance between where you are and where you have put the cross hairs. If only piste maps were so reliable. I often used the IGN map when skiing to see "Where I really was...".
I used this app daily while hiking in france It's not as good as Ordnance Survey, but it's a good app. The navigation / user experience is a little clunky. There's a good selection of user contributed trails (I think you can only create these by recording, I couldn't figure it out), the filtering on the selection is a little wild. But I wouldn't go hiking without it! Vive le IGN !
I used ViewRanger, which was an excellent app to get access to downloaded offline IGN maps (the whole social network buddy stuff does not interest me at all but that's OK, you don't need to use it). Unfortunately ViewRanger is no more, sold out to another app that is worse. IGN Rando is the obvious one to use instead. Have downloaded it but use will be limited until the possibility to download maps on an SD card becomes available. For anyone designing ths kind of software, do realize that just where you need topo maps, in the outdoors, connection to a 4G data network is often bad or non existent. So you really need preloaded maps of a fairly large area, and that is just too much data for the phone's internal memory (unless you have a very expensive phone with huge internal storage, and even then, if you also need to store pictures and videos etc. there, it still fills up). Keeping maps on an SD card is way better. Once it has that option I'll give it more stars...
Sluggish, crashes very often, very bad UI. After downloading the maps and using offline mode it takes forever to draw the map when zooming in. The only positive thing is the actual content of the official IGN maps, I wish this content was be available in a properly developed and designed app. I'm not confident relying on this app for navigation in remote mountains.
Downloading maps for offline stalls most of the time and is painfully slow. Offline maps if the download managed to succeed does not seem to work much. Back to paper maps then.
