US Topo Maps Pro for Android
Great app. Provides a variety of map backgrounds with your route or location on top. Only thing missing is the ability to specify a coordinate system like state plane, or utm or elevations with geoid.
When adding a waypoint, I cannot figure out how to add west after entering longitude, it only display the number pad, and defaults to East. Thanks for response, simple enough to change to negative, recommend you add that to help.
Excellent app with all the basic required functions. Works even when your phone is not connected to the cellular network. Absolutely invaluable tool when we go on extended hikes into the backcountry wilderness.
The android version contains a lot less. No ability to drop pins for example
Love the choice of maps... The Tripmastwr allows U to see prigress and gives U something to brag about.
My go to app for hiking. I've used it for years and have never been disappointed!
Love it! Best off line map app ever
I especially like the forest service and padus layers.
Great app. Love it!
So far I love it
I like the app
I WANT to love it, but... There's 3 major issues I have. 1. It CONSTANTLY crashes. That one's self explanatory. 2. Once you import a track, that's it. You can edit it at all. So what happens when I import tracks that have a bunch of other routes on them I don't want? Nothing. Because I can't delete the portions I don't want. 3. More of a personal preference, but I wish there was a map available that had more of a contrast to better depict the roads in a city. I have a dash mounted tablet that I use for navigation. I find myself squinting to tell the difference between the roads and the background color. Other than those, I rather like this app. It's has the most accurate GPS that I've found. I just feel that even though 12 bucks is rather inexpensive, I should at least be able to edit tracks after they are made/imported.
Love this app. Have found roads and trails that can't be seen at ground level simply by way pointing and push GO! turn by turn tracking has gotten me back out in bad weather also .Pro is worth every penny of 12 bucks, one USGS Quad (paper) is 12 bucks!
If you have not tried the pro version, try it ! I've used this on road trips and the trip master will tell you many useful Info's. Download street maps of cities that you don't know and you won't need WiFi or data to find your way.
I didn't like it when I first tried it. After working with it some ( and doing the built in tutorial) I have to revise my review to "absolutely great" and 5 stars!! My problem was that I didn't put the effort into learning the app like I should have. I was expecting just another "there's an app for that" like some of the other app that I have. My advice? Go through the tutorial first
I absolutely LOVE everything about this app. As an avid outdoorsman, I use this on a weekly basis. No other app comes close to the level of detail,reliability,UI,and customization as this app,when it comes to navigation. I recommend this app to EVERYONE that wanders out into the country, be it exploring,hunting,hiking,camping or a road trip, you will be satisfied in every sense of the word map. I love it!
Awesome map for getting off the beaten path. Cache and go. Use it for Adventure Touring on the motorbike for all kinds of terrain. Freeways to Twisty pavers to trails without the need for cell service. GPX, KML, KMZ... All will work.
This is a great app but there are a few more features I would like. For example: I would like to be able to measure distances between 2 points. It would also be nice to have a shaded radius around a marker (this would be useful for planning a hunt to mark buildings). I would also like to be able to use more than 1 map layer at a time (adjust the transparency of each layer). Other than this the app is great and still very useful.
I used this so while I'm hunting and more than once it has saved me from having to spend the night in the woods. I would have given it 5 stars, but when I get a new phone I can't figure out how to upload from my memory.
The app is very accurate on location and current altitude. They need add cummulative elevation gain/loss during realtime tracking and improve the elevation gain loss after saving a track.
Could you please add a layer of geologic maps to the database. I've tried to add my own but they fail every time. The USGS has multiple databases with state and local geologic maps. Please make this available, thanks!!
It is the best app if you like to explore. You can see where you have been and where you would like to go the ability to have a birds eye view. There are more than a dozen layers so you can choose the best for what experience you are about to enjoy
As someone who hunts public land for whitetails, this app has been my most valuable scouting tool. It's perfect for this. Drop a pin on a terrain feature, and seamlessly switch to an aerial view. Need to see contrast between trees? 4 different aerial maps to find what you're looking for. Great app, and of the hundreds of apps I've had, the only one I've come back to rate. Had it for over a year and it's fantastic.
I use this app for hiking in upstate New York. Works great on my phone and doesn't drain the battery heavily. I am able track and save my routes and waypoints quickly and easily. It's also great that you don't need a cell phone signal because it relies on gps. It's also easy to share and export routes and waypoints via email to other people or my tablet which I also have this app on for better viewing and hike planning/analysis. Just remember to cache some maps before you go if you won't have reception.
The only thing I can think of that would make it better is the addition of historical topos.
The fonts are too small on my phone can barely read them. Is there a way to enlarge the fonts?
Works OK, no major issues yet. Time will tell
Does everything you could possibly want. So many maps, so little time to explore them.
Good program but the kml import is importing all way points with the same coordinates. Same kml works fine in earth.
So many features. Great maps and GPS app. Must have for the off-road Jeep rides. Well worth the money.
Works great. Suggestion: Adjustable fonts in the display & multi-column would be useful.
Wish it had automatic geocache incorporation, that would be way cool. I'll have to play with it.
Spent many hours on this app. A great tool to find many new adventures!!
Worth every penny
The app is just plain incredible!!!
THIS IS THE BEST MAPPING APP (Period!)
Love it! Awesome amount of data
I think
I've been using this software to record hikes and bike rides and it is my favorite app for this task. It is a great example of sensibly designed and well thought out for what features you might choose to use, with all it's options performing as described. My compliments

Nonexistent customer service. Lost all my waypoints and have yet to receive any response from Atlogis support. Word to the wise, write down your coord's or back up points w/alternate GPS device.
