User Reviews for CityMaps2Go – Offline Maps

Not a fan of this program

Not easy or obvious to use, spend more time frustrated by trying to figure out how to use rather than using it. Map seems okay but searches are hard to use. For example, I knew there was a restaurant near me the started with an R. Went to search, food, local in the search options it listed hundreds of restaurants in a random order. We finally found the restaurant in google then searched in the app to find it 900 feet away. Would have liked to search local by alphabetical, distance food types or dollars as an options to help narrow down choices. Another example, cannot figure out how to use app to create an interesting list of place to visit. Would like to build a day planner list of places to visit on foot or by car. Cannot find a way to do this unless I know the places before hand?

Great Map App

Great app if you want mapping/location info but don’t want to use data out of your regular phone service area. Used by many airline crewmembers for international trips. I am one. Download maps you need onto your phone when you have Wi-Fi then you can turn off your cellular data and the app will still show your location on the map. Does not provide driving/walking directions (as does Google Maps when connected to Internet) but does show your location. Maps are detailed and allow you to search for many attractions, restaurants, etc without using data. Wide range of maps for cities and larger geographic areas.

Review of a sinner

I have spent a day trying to figure out where my data disappeared to when I upgraded the app. The technician was polite and tried to be helpful as he explained that even though I had used it for about three years I had not ‘logged on’ in years and thus there was no synced data. When I deleted my old icon and app in order not to confuse them with the new, I deleted the only file of the data points, sites, pins etc. Like a gift from above, I still had my old iPad, still charging and syncing though not being used. It had all the data. Now I am back in business. The sync between the iPads is still not complete but there are work around such as simply naming the pins that are not syncing to a new list and then they appear. Three cheers to really professional technician S.

Really useful mapping app

I use CityMaps2Go a lot when in places where I either have poor cellular data access OR was concerned about security using local WiFi and or cellular data providers. The downloaded versions of CM2G maps are really quite accurate and more than sufficiently detailed. Examples (1) in very remote northern USA. I have family who live on the edge of a Natl Forest and cellular coverage is awful. I have maps downloaded for these states and never have an issue. (2) I do business occasionally in Middle East - Saudi and UAE. Cellular coverage is spotty, expensive and not always secure - again I have maps for these countries downloaded and can turn phone to ‘airplane mode’ and still find my way around. Then only go live with internet when confident I have safe reliable access (say at reputable hotel).It is really a good option for people who are on the go and not always tethered to safe speedy internet.

Very Useful app

I’ve used this map app on several trips including Sydney and Berlin recently. And it seems to be regularly update for new locations. I’m based in Los Angeles and I often use it for local adventures, too. I find it very helpful that it allows offline use + you can add notes/photos and have use of the GPS compass (knowing the cardinal points is very helpful). For traveling, these features saves data usage. I initially used this app on my iPhone 5S. Now I’m on iPhone SE....and using the newer version of the app. Also, though this app provides train stations, I generally use a separate app for trains/buses in the city I’m in to assist (just to get timetables) .The combination seems to work well for me.

Great app for travel

I’ve used this app in the US, Ireland, and Paris and find it incredibly helpful navigated city streets on foot and country back roads by car. Download the maps for offline use, add pins for your destinations, turn off cellular data and it uses your phone’s GPS to locate you. You can then track to see if you are going in the right direction toward your destinations while on foot in a city.We had a GPS system in our rental car in Ireland, but some of the places we wanted to get to were off the beaten path - like the ruin of an abbey - we could get to the general area via the car GPS and then we used this app to get to the actual location.Highly recommend!

Once-great app ruined in recent update

Update 1 mo later: Ulmon’s web site support form hasn’t functioned for at least a month. I’ve emailed support, and contacted them via Facebook, with no response. These problems may be connected to recent security issues Ulmon reported to users. New users should beware investing in this abandoned app.Original review: CityMaps2Go was once one of my most-used apps, and I happily paid for the premium version. A recent update required re-downloading all maps. After doing so, I’ve repeatedly found the once-reliable offline map use feature, which I relied on, to be totally unreliable. Even when I have already downloaded the map for my current area, the app will show a blank map when I’m offline. It seems to need to “call home” at arbitrary and unpredictable times in order to work, crippling it for offline use. If Ulmon reads this: Please restore the earlier simple and completely reliable offline performance. Without that, this app is essentially useless to me, and I regret paying for the premium version.

Crashes frequently

I’ve used City Maps for over five years. These are the pros and cons I’ve found with this App. PROS: you can mark and save restaurants, subway stations, historical attractions to navigate to when offline. It provides detailed maps that are very useful if you have no cellular or WiFi access.CONS: There have been two times that all of my stored locations and folders have been completely purged thus losing a lot of obscure places I planned to revisit. The map is often jerky when you try to zoom in/out or scroll around. Sometimes this causes the app to abruptly crash. Recently I keep having an issue with the entire map disappearing so that you’re left with your blue (GPS position) on a completely blank screen. I tried deleting and downloading the app again but sometimes this occurs often when I am miles away from my hotel and necessitating me to find WiFi to use conventional methods to find my way back. I am a premium member and I sent an inquiry to their customer service about this and never heard back. Finally, although there are thousands of restaurants and popular locations in the database, more often than not, I find that restaurants I want to find aren’t recognized and I’m talking about too-rated restaurants recognized by Trip Advisor or Foursquare. I hate to say it, but you’re better off paying for an international cellular plan than to rely on this app as a stand alone navigation source for off grid traveling based on my experiences.

Absolutely MUST HAVE

I visited Costa Rica and downloaded this app. We also purchased a paper map as well but I was unconvinced that she would be able to navigate quickly and within small towns on a paper map. This app totally saved us! We were birdwatching for two weeks all across the country and added stars to all of the locations we wanted to visit. We also had stars pinpointing all of the places we would be sleeping. That way, we could keep track of where we were driving and if there were any sites we wanted to stop at. The worst part of this app was that some roads were not named.... but it turns out that was NOT the apps fault but simply unnamed roads in Costa Rica. Another cool thing is you keep your phone of airplane mode but you are still tracked via GPS so you always know where you are at. It does not give you turn by turn directions but it was super easy to navigate and really accurate. Super happy with this app and would highly recommend it for an upcoming trip. The only thing I wish they offered was a desktop platform for you to put in your starred locations before the trip rather than on the phone. It would have saved a small amount of time but overall not a huge problem.

Great App

This is a great application... I use it extensively and recommend it to all my colleagues... I am an airline pilot for a major airline and travel extensively overseas. The strong points on this app is it requires no wifi connection (although it enhances the app) or data interface... in other words I can walk around the cities I previously downloaded in airplane mode and it uses the internal GPS for guidance. I also like the colored stars as I use a color for restaurants, a color for points of interest, a color for my hotels... etc. I also love that every place I pin I can put personal notes so I can review them before walking in and treat the employees like old lost friends...
