About E-walk Free - Offline maps
E-WALK
E-walk allows you to download offline maps, to plan your treks, to show and share your position, to record your treks, etc... This makes E-walk the perfect companion for outdoors activities (such as trekking, hiking, fishing, hunting, etc...) and for traveling abroad, because you can fully use it offline.
Lost in a forest? E-walk brings you back to your car. Forgot about where was this lovely boutique you noticed last year in Venice? E-walk refreshes your memory!

Great app, intuitive UI. I'll give it a 5 star when it gets the possibility to save offline maps & tracks to an SD-card.
