A Miracle for Travelers and iPod Users

zmohiuddin

This app is probably the most amazing app you will find on the App Store. It essentially allows you to save maps to your phone with a bunch of other handy navigation/trip tracking options. If you travel at all you know how hard it is to get a Data plan on your iPhone for a reasonable price, and even when you do there's no guarantee of getting service! This app turns you from a lost foreign traveler to an expert navigator. The UI is clean, easy to use, and absolutely functional. One other use case I found for this was for folks who have an iPod touch or do not have a data plan on their iPhones. Offline maps can help you find your way around with any data connection! Perfect for the two groups I mentioned above and travelers! This app is really amazing in its depth of features and utility value. Get this app now and never be lost again!


This May Just Get Me Through Geology

I have been looking for an app like this for a while online, and to be honest the cool icon design is what attracted me to this one. My Geology class has been doing a few lessons involving Google Earth, but I needed something I can use while in class to ask questions and that will help me with more accurate coordinates. This app looks like it has it all from what I can tell! The compass feature seems to be super accurate and does just what I need. The maps are neat looking, not 100% what I am used to, but overall this app is really neat and has some cool features!


Great for hikers

Personally I enjoy hiking and cycling on my spare time. This app is perfect to track your routes and go places where there is no cell tower.


Great for anyone!

This is a great app especially because it doesn't use any data. It has tons of maps. This is even good for iPod users.


Worth its money!

Feature-rich GPS app that is worth every penny. Now I can create and use my very own, custom map while treking. Lots of maps to choose from. Well thought out user interface. Innovative app indeed!


Hiking and Vacation Mapping Tool

iPhoneSDKPro

Yes this is the coolest mapping app that I've purchased. Lets just say your going on a hiking trip, or on vacation to an island in the tropics. If you don't have data access, your iPhone, or iPad navigation is not going to workout too well for you. This is where DIY Maps GPS comes in handy. You can search for a map from google maps and overlay tiles from other mapping sources. Add in the Millions of Points of Interest worldwide and you have the ultimate offline mapping tool. After you get use to the interface you will be using DIY Maps GPS to create offline maps for the places you travel most. Contacted the developer and he promises Nautical maps in an upcoming release. Ohhh baby.


Great buy

Your path to exploration starts here!

I love being outside, whether for hiking, camping, running or just enjoying nature. However, many portable GPS units have limited information and capability—I sold a Magellan because it didn’t provide me much information. DIY Map is a great way for you to ditch bulky expensive GPS units and use your mobile device. Live tracking of your destination, local weather and restaurants of major cities are just the start. You can download maps of most anywhere you can travel or imagine—but no bloat of places you don’t need—personal customization. You can track your yourself through GPS and even figure out speed and cadence using your bike—something I can’t wait to try out once all this snow melts! This is like Google Maps and Garmin and on steroids. The capabilities and customization are well worth it. No need spending hundreds on a new device that is obsolete in months when you can have a fully customizable and updateable app that will grow with you and your travels. Easily worth the low price.
