Old Maps: A touch of history

Awesome awesome awesome app, you won't find anything better for free, or at all for that matter. Thank you thank you thank you. Amazing I wish I can give it six stars. I wish it had an export feature or a way to copy the maps for later use. Just a suggestion

Crashes and very slow - but the adverts are very fast! This developer knows exactly what theyre doing: taking free online maps and putting adverts over the top.

Very resource hungry - puts a big load on the CPU (and therefore battery). And this is on an octa-core processor! Reluctantly, will need to uninstall.

My goodness! I can see myself spending time browsing as well as research. A little more by way of instruction would be good but that would mean Google would need a six star system. Thank you

It's ok where WiFi is available. When unavailable, the map is too blurry to see anything. How to download the maps to the SD card and use them offline?

I can't stop researching areas I know. I have even paid to remove the unobtrusive ads because I think its worth the payment and I never pay for apps!!

Loading is WAY TOO SLOW.... Don't bother with this app... Save the space in your phone!

So many intrusive ads makes it effectively unusable.

Great app, now the base map is back!

Does not work on LG V10. :(

Fascinating, no one would say it's well documented or easy to navigate though

just images not map actually we can figure out names on map ..!!

None of the maps would load

Not that great.

Well played! Easy to navigate.

I Love to map routs

Awesome really enjoy this. Thanks

great app

Lot of bad reviews. Must depend on the phone because zooming, panning, rotation and searching all work great. Haven't had any problems. If you have an S5 running Android 6 then ignore the bad reviews. Works great on this phone.

Fascinating to look at the places that mean a lot to me. The maps of my specific locations go back to the mid-Victorian era and they help to explain road names and the names of certain local districts and landmarks. I wish I could print them or save them but other than that it's a wonderful app.

It doesn't do anything. I searched for a place, and a current map came up with a translucent overlay and some tiles on the right which did nothing. No pressing of anything produced anything. Useless and pointless. Gave up and uninstalled.

Did not do anything. Waited ages in case slow download but just frame and adverts. No maps.

Wonderful way to get lost. This is my favorite app. Research lovers dream. Good Job

No instructions. Couldn't find any old maps of the location I was looking at. All it showed was present day.

Confusing and couldn't open large versions of maps

Couldn't find a damn thing

love it old place something went wrong have you been change update?

Some older maps dont load an takes you to places your not searching for

Does not work

Lovely app. Works great. Interesting maps well prepared and presented

Much improved with latest update

One the best apps I've ever used.

Certainly worth looking at and seeing how it develops.

All those that say images are blurry....you have to click on the link that says web, then click view on digital collection. It then brings you to the zoomable image via the website that has the image....like NYPL for instance. This app is an awesome collection of shortcuts, not the maps themselves.

Use the website. Much better than the app. I found it impossible to navigate round the app version, perhaps a map would help.

Good idea, but doesn't work well. Zooming in and out is hard, panning impossible. Image loading is slow - when it works. The web interface is much better.

Has to be the worst planned and hardest to navigate app I have ever come across. Deserves ZERO stars!!

Why do you force tablet users to use the app? The website is far superior to it. When you zoom into a place you want only to be offered maps that cover the same area and level not all countries. The offered maps are not in any apparent order, so hard to find the right one.

What I thought could be a good app wasn't. On my phone, a Samsung galaxy s7, it keeps stopping and I'm getting the message popping up saying 'unfortunately old maps has stopped'. This has happened repeatedly every time I open the app. Unfortunately I will now be deleting it. If this isssue is fixed with a future update then that would be great, maybe then I could leave a better review.

Zooming in gets you nothing but a distorted view to the point you can't even read the names of towns and cities.
