Crashes all the time, no keyboard in Search

I'm on an iPhone 5. App crashes 4 or 5 times before it opens every time. Also discovered tonight that you cannot actually Search because clicking into the Search text box doesn't open the dang keyboard. What a basic functionality miss. Lame.
Ugliest Interface

I'm updating my review for the version 4.1, which has just come out. But wow, it's worse than ever: This app now has an advertisement for another map called "True Maps 3 - Worldwide Offline Maps, Tap here to get it..." - This advertisement uses up two-line space(!) of the top of the front screen, and it does not go away no matter what you do, perhaps until you buy it? (I don't know, because I would never buy anything from this maker again, and I'm deleting this app as soon as I finish writing this update.) - This app is still not multi task compliant, so if you switch to any other program and come back, it relaunches itself again. In this age and day, it's a little lame. - But my main objection is still the same as before that this offline map is the ugliest map I've ever seen, because if you zoom in to the max, you will see that small streets are actually connected by series of sausage shapes that are not blended to each other as if they are last minute lazy additions. - Then there is this big ugly triangle shape that always sit at the bottom of the screen all the time, which sole function is to call up a large tool box. I did not think it would be so disturbing when I first saw the sample screen shot here at iTunes Store. When I saw it on my own phone, it WAS disturbing, because it hides large portion of the screen unnecessarily, and it's simply ugly. - What's wrong with just creating a neat tool box strip at the bottom of the screen like most other apps so that you don't need to tap the screen just to call them up? If hiding the tool box is important to maximize the screen, wouldn't it much better to create a small icon, instead of this huge thing, at the corner of the screen so that the screen CAN BE actually maximized? (Then of course, you must take out the 2-line advertisement to maximize the screen, which is so unfair for us paid customers!) - Finally, let me tell you that I use many other map apps such as OffMaps2, OpenMaps Pro, Paris2Go, London2Go, CityMaps2Go, which are all capable of offline GPS tracking. So when I say that this app is ugliest, I'm comparing this with these other apps.

I visited Paris for a week, and this app was a lifesaver. It lets me find my current location on the map of Paris, *with no Internet access*. It has an overlay that shows Metro stations. You can search for addresses (though not "Eiffel Tower"). You can get a route between locations. There are a few problems. One day, the app stopped displaying map images, and would not recover until I deleted the app and reinstalled it. It is not easy enough to tell it to calculate a route starting at "my location". It does not know where "Eiffel Tower" is. But these complaints are small compared to how useful this app has been to me during my week in Paris (when no Paris mobile phone store would sell me a SIM that would give me Internet access on my unlocked AT&T iPhone 4S).
