One of my favorite Apps – Pocket Earth Maps Review

Before leaving for a Danube River cruise, I downloaded all of the maps for the Eastern European countries, as well as several for the USA. They didn't take up much space, but were incredible, both while walking and driving. I was amazed to find out how much additional information was available everywhere with Wikipedia references that were quite extensive and that went far beyond what our local guides had given us, even in remote locations that I had never even previously heard of. While walking I was able to put in a street or address, and find my way to the location while offline. This worked well, but of course the one much to be desired improvement would be the ability to get turn by turn directions while offline, as the destination is drawn as a straight line from location to destination. However it is constantly upgraded as you move in the direction of your destination, so that it does take you there. We are a traveling family, and I have urged everyone to make the purchase. It is probably the best few bucks I have ever spent.
