Android OS maps?

Post by mmac78 » Fri Jul 11, 2014 11:31 am

Hi guys,

just switched to Android from my old iPhone5 and wanted to know is there any free/recommended apps for android phones that give you the OS maps & GPS at all? Used a couple on iPhone but were very poor etc.
Just wondering if anyone knew of any good apps that would do the trick?

Cheers all :doublethumbs:

I posted a while back regarding memory map... do you know what version of android you are on?

(Settings > About Phone > Software Information > Android Version)

I will find the old posts for you

This post related to memory map.... IMO the best off road sat nav/gps tool available
Problem is you need android 4.1.2 or less

Sorry but the download link is broken on this one, I still have the installer file though if u want it

This post is for Sygic... from the looks of it, the best ON-road gps. You load the maps onto your phone's memory or SD card so no internet connection is required

If you want to give any of those a bash then feel free to pop to worthing and I can load the maps for you.... Quicker than downloading them again ;)

You could get the full version and pay £20 per map...
