« How's it Work? »
Just select the cities, regions, or even whole countries you want to
download, and it will be available for offline use, complete with
information on thousands of POIs (Points of Interest), and travel guides
and Wikipedia articles.
To do this we utilize community driven
open data from a number of amazing projects: openstreetmap.org,
naturalearthdata.com, wikivoyage.org, and wikipedia.org. We use some
magik to compress and package it in a format optimized for mobile
devices. Pocket Earth then renders its beautiful vector maps on your
device using our OpenGL ES based MagikMap technology. So unlike other
map apps which only download pre-rendered images (map tiles), our maps
are only a fraction of the size, and you can better control the
appearance of the map with different style sheets, data sources, and map
layers.
To learn more about Pocket Earth or the community driven open data sources that we use, please visit our website.
Don't forget this:
1. Using the GPS features of this app can significantly affect battery life. Only leave GPS enabled when you need to use it.
2. This app uses data from the amazing community driven open mapping
project called openstreetmap.org! Coverage detail may vary by region,
please visit our website to check the map detail for your regions of
interest.
3. Does not currently support all asian texts on the map (Chinese, Japanese, etc).

I've used Pocket Earth in Asia and Europe and it is the most valuable app I've ever bought. Once the maps are downloaded, and you have a GPS signal that shows where you are, there is no way you can ever be lost in a foreign place. The only thing was being able to search for a destination, but it looks as though the new version has fixed this issue.
If you are travelling somewhere unfamiliar, and you want offline maps, this app is perfect.
This application has been very useful, though there are differences from google maps which takes a while to get used to.
Turning on/off the various layers is a good idea and stops maps being cluttered.
A large disappointment for me is the lack of names for a lot of railway stations. There is no consistency with station names, often rail operators don't use the locality name, so station names would greatly assist navigation and planning of rail journeys.
The downloaded maps themselves appear to be correct, though some feature layers (eg food & drink, sightseeing) have not been all that useful to us.
This is a wonderful app for anyone who is traveling. So easy to save all your places and routes. I was going to take a map book but no longer need it. Thanks for putting this together
