Best offline option for international travel

I’ve been using this app for years for both international and domestic travel. I am always in airplane mode when international and find the app very helpful. I pin all my restaurants and tourists sites ahead of time so know exactly where I am going, cellular data free. Great custom service also- I was having some issues with my maps loading and received very quick support through a series of back and forth emails, and was able to fix the problem.

Crappy app

First off, you have to pay to be able to download more than one map. Secondly, once you have dowloaded the map of the state you want, you can’t find things by city. It’s just the most random, haphazard app ever.

Used to love this app but now crashes every single time you try to add a new place to your map. So disappointing clearly not worth the headache. Looking for a new app to replace immediately

Absolutely MUST HAVE

I visited Costa Rica and downloaded this app. We also purchased a paper map as well but I was unconvinced that she would be able to navigate quickly and within small towns on a paper map. This app totally saved us! We were birdwatching for two weeks all across the country and added stars to all of the locations we wanted to visit. We also had stars pinpointing all of the places we would be sleeping. That way, we could keep track of where we were driving and if there were any sites we wanted to stop at. The worst part of this app was that some roads were not named.... but it turns out that was NOT the apps fault but simply unnamed roads in Costa Rica. Another cool thing is you keep your phone of airplane mode but you are still tracked via GPS so you always know where you are at. It does not give you turn by turn directions but it was super easy to navigate and really accurate. Super happy with this app and would highly recommend it for an upcoming trip. The only thing I wish they offered was a desktop platform for you to put in your starred locations before the trip rather than on the phone. It would have saved a small amount of time but overall not a huge problem.

Great travel App

I have used this App for travel info for the last couple of years. The maps are accurate and the info included is very helpful. It is very nice to have a map downloaded into your phone when traveling abroad wher you don’t have phone service.

Disappointing

I really don’t understand the great reviews. It’s like it’s a different app. App has good potential but it’s hard to find sights to see. Places to see are not under discover. Discover is a mix of top sights and restaurants with what are almost ads for restaurants and hotels. The real list of sights is under maps. Then you have to click the star that says tops. I test software for a living and found it difficult to find. This gives you a list of sights and restaurants rated by popularity with no way to sort. You can view all the paid tours and admissions, but if there is a way to sort or filter, I can’t find it. I have no idea what the sort is. Once you find what you want to see, the app is good at making a list and putting places on a map. I found the best way way to find a good travel book, find the places and just use the list and map portion. If you have a limited or no data plan, The off line map portion sounds like it may be the best part of the app. Personally, I found the app to be more trouble than it was worth.
