About Hadrian's Wall Map

For people walking the Hadrian's Wall Path, this app provides a mapping for the full path in 2 mile sections. When launched the app will interrogate the mobile device's location manager and display the section is closest to the users current location. The app does not require network access, so coverage in the remote areas, or data roaming costs do not affect the app.
The first screen provides information on how to use the map and a map key for the features that are not standard OS symbols. Simply tap this screen to view the map closest to the users current location. From here swipe gestures can be used to navigate East and West along the path.
The sections in the app correspond directly to the sections shown on the Hadrian's Wall Page on www.hikeview.co.uk, allowing the user to plan their hike on the web-page and then use map sections that are identical to those used in the planning process.
A new feature has now been added that links each map section to a web based version of the same map section. A long press on any map section will open the web based version of the same section with a marker indicating the users location. The web based version of the map can pan and zoom. Access to this feature does require that the user have data access on their mobile device.
There are 43 maps in total, each 2 miles long, with the exception of the East-most section between Wallsend and St. Anthony's which is 1.25 miles.
Features indicated include field boundaries, tracks, steps and point altitude measurements; useful towards the end of a long days walking: "Only 3 fields, one set of steps and a half mile track to go!"

The app does exactly what it says in the description. Very handy, nice and simple, and all for under £1! I would quite like the option to put some annotations or notes on the pages. Also, it gives you the function to link to an online map so you can pan and zoom. Overall a really good app.

Just screenshots of a map. Worse than useless.

Simple and quick to use on both phone and tablet. Relevant info. The satellite imagery gives good planning opportunity when zoomed in as quality is high. Job well done.

Just walked the hadrians way and found the maps on this app very handy. The location feature didn't seem to work but the maps were spot on and saved buying any paper maps.
