User Reviews for Pocket Earth PRO

The Best

This was one of the first vector based mapping software out there, and it’s still so vital to have. It’s one of the easiest to download huge areas right to your iPhone or iPad so you can take it with you anywhere. Never disappointed. Shows more details than others even when using the same OpenStreet Map. For example, power lines! Which can be very useful if your hiking in a rural spot. I’m glad to see some updates lately, and I could see some need for an interface update soon, but until then, this is simply the best offline vector map out there.

The best

Absolutely the most top-notch, accurate and user-friendly navigational app out there. I have travelled and backpacked through 65 countries and Pocket Earth has steered me around the world. From traversing the bustling souks of Marrakesh to wondering the colonial streets of Cartagena Pocket Earth was there for me. The app showed restaurants, roads, stairs, local passageways that would not have shown up in other competitor navigational apps. Definitely better than Google Maps. The highly customizable nature of the app allows you to drop a pin for points of interest and also mark things down for later exploration. Two of the best features are the location tracker that tracks where you are without data. Pocket Earth is also able to calculate the distance between two points; allowing me to estimate how far a place of interest is. The vast amount of WikiTravel stored on the app is amazing. Without using online data I am able to read about an upcoming country. The information on local bus and train routes makes this app THE BEST in the industry. I can go wherever I want and not be afraid of getting lost anymore. If you’re still contemplating, download it now. You won’t regret it.

Okay for many uses, not for back roads

This is a great app for many applications. Travel on major roads, for example. However, for backroad users (hunters, fishermen, storm chasers) there is a major flaw: the minor roads disappear almost immediately when you zoom out. This makes it impossible to overview the road network of minor roads at a glance. There have been times I've been in the middle of nowhere and need to find a route 'out' to a major road. I can't easily do that, because when I zoom out, the road I'm on (and others I'm trying to find) simply disappear.It would be a simple fix: just add a setting that says to show minor roads at a wider variety of zoom levels. Until this is implemented, backroad users might want to steer clear.

Pocket Earth Pro

Pocket Earth Pro is a great resource for those interested in traveling, adventures of those who just want to access maps for almost every location around the world. Almost any helpful information you can think of can be used for assistance. Whether individual travel guides for numerous locations, Wikipedia articles to provide information on locations, whether large maps of known and unknown areas that can be downloaded and accessed offline Pocket Earth has it. Most importantly the app is easy to navigate and use which can sometimes not be true of an application brimming with information. The side bar can be used to access a category or customize your personal settings. Pocket Earth is an application well worth a download whether the free or Pro version.

Fantastic offline/online app

Highly recommend this app, which I have been using for about 5 years or more. Really good for travel, especially if you will be going somewhere where you do not have an internet connection. You can download and save maps for wherever you will be in the world.I have even used it on flights where I can look out the window and see these beautiful islands, but I don’t know exactly where I am or the islands are. With this I can find out and possible visit them some day.Love this app! Thank you to the developers. Get it.

Great Offline Maps

Great to use on older phones that no longer have cellular service. Load the app, download the maps and just use the internal gps with the map software. For $5 you can download the topographical maps, if you know how to read them. I’ve always just wanted mapping software that didn’t rely on having data available. Now I can just download while on WiFi and go. If you are running low on memory, you can just download the states you are in or visiting individually. From time to time I have noticed that maps are deleted when the app is updated. I did have to reload maps, but if I was already out and about I would just download the state and I can always restore my purchase of the topo maps and be on my way. Have fun, enjoy and get out and go explore.

Fantastic trail finding

I like bicycling in the backroads of the world. In 25 countries I have used downloaded PocketEarth maps to pick my way through paths, urban and rural, on my bicycle. I have crossed skinny dams, gone alongside the Black Sea on farm trails, found my way through the Carpathian Mountains on skinny roads with River fords, and gone through odd corners of wild land in cities. Almost universally without fail. The only exception is that in the USA the “private road” data is sometimes inaccurate, and I have had to turn back and retrace my steps. 5 stars! I would give it more if I could. 6? 7? 10? Maybe 12!!!

Love it - and I'm a map geek

I LOVE this map. I first used it many years ago with my iTouch and now have the Pro version on my iPhone. You can navigate with iPhone even if you have no cell coverage; the GPS still works. I always pre-download maps when I travel. I can then navigate off line, which saves data fees as well as battery. The ability to switch which maps are downloaded is great, and very easy. I can for example download British Columbia topo maps for a backcountry trip; then later remove it before downloading Italy for my next trip. The level of detail and the number of "points of interest" is fantastic! I’ve even used it to navigate the Paris metro system! I d like to see more icon choices for “favorites” I save. A way to indicate a trailhead, or a picture of a car come to mind.Another update I’d like to see is that I’d like to be able to search for routes or tracks that are “Nearby”. The only way to find them currently is to search “Groups & Filters” by name date or user. Since I have dozens if not hundreds of Tracks and Routes, this is cumbersome. I usually don’t remember the name or date, and the user is always me, so I must scroll through the entire list.

Almost Perfect App

I have been using the Pocket Earth for almost 9 years and have enjoyed its use and improvements over time, including more detailed information regarding services, businesses, etc on the map. However I continue to experience sporadic problems with syncing between devices. Just today I created five new favorites and put them in a newly created Group on my iPhone and they have not shown up on my iPad over 8 hours later. I have the sync feature turned on on both devices. So not sure if this is a server issue or what, but it is frustrating. This has happened in the past while a actually traveling, which is even more frustrating. Would appreciate hearing if other have this issue.

My go-to travel planning tool

I like to plan my trips well, and that means being able to find and mark locations on map and plan routes. I have found no better tool for this. Takes a little work to figure out how best to use - but worth the investment. My top desires for future updates is to be able to turn off all Wikipedia icons and even better ability to turn off all icons other than the ones saved - I like to print off maps that show my locations of interest but map gets too cluttered with unwanted icons.
