5 Stars !!

Small sized app (2 mb) with big features. Waypoints and poi files import easily whether downloaded from the Internet or made yourself. Extremely stable, hasn't crashed or hung up. Map sets can be pre downloaded for times you will not have coverage. Record tracks and navigate to locations. Listen to music in app. Compass rose with bearing indicator, signal strength indicator, heading, speed, location, and altitude in header. Scale indicated on map. Great navigation app. Easy to set up and use, with lots of settings to customize your experience.
Excellent App

Amazing little app. I imported several thousand POIs into this program and it handled it with no problem. Easy to add additional map sources, see the forum for details. If you need a mapping program to handle multiple POIs, get this app.
GREAT APP

I LOVE THE FACT THAT YOU CAN IMPORT YOUR GPX/KML FILES WITH THIS APP AND SEE YOUR PAST TRACKS FROM OTHER DEVICES. IT TOOK A LONG TIME TO FIND SUCH A THING. IT DOESNT CRASH EITHER LIKE OTHER GPS APPS, VERY RELIABLE!
The Best

This is an exceptional app, powerful, but with a clean, simple interface. I use it primarily for outdoor navigation and mapping of locations and property boundaries. You can input and edit the location of waypoints, organize them into groups, and assign different icons to different waypoint groups. You can input and edit routes, as well as create tracks on the fly. You can pre-load map tiles for offline use and import/export your data to and from other applications. Best of all you can configure your own map data sources from the many free mapservers available on the web, enabling easy switching between vector and raster based topographic maps, satellite imagery and street maps. Other apps have some of these features--this is the only app I have tried with the whole package. Five stars!
Great Coverage !

and Great Job ! The comprehensive integration and overall functionality goes well beyond my expectations. Better documentation could make it quicker to get used to though.
Great app

I can upload waypoints exported from BaseCamp from DropBox and use the waypoints with Navigon or TomTom.

did what i wanted it to do, i transferred a gpx file to the app then moved all the waypoints to navigon. worked perfectly
Great app!

Initially skeptical but it is the most flexible map app of the lot. Like the fact that you can download and upload waypoints and POI, and use google maps offline
At least the name is good

Sometimes it does something and sometimes it does not. Loaded tracks gpx and it gives you the broke down names, but was able to load to navigon once then for the next 3 hours it would not open navigon.
Terrible

Terrible app. It doesn't even display a map I am looking for an app that displays property lines but I just wasted 6 dollars
