  1. 5/5Best routes for outdoorsy travelers

    The strength of this app is that it finds great routes all over the world. While some apps work decently in certain regions, for example Google Maps in the US, they do not perform well elsewhere. I used Topo GPS in North America, Europe and Asia in three different countries on each continent, and always got good results, often those that a local would pick, both for hiking and biking.

  2. 3/5Good: maps sync across devices, bad map resolution

    Seemed like it was going to solve all my problems: one-time map purchases rather than subscriptions, and supports phone, tablet, and computer. Unfortunately the map, at least the one I've purchased, is quite limited in resolution – you can't zoom very far in, even though the (free) map source it uses has more detail. It's ok for driving and casual browsing, but not sufficient for hiking. On top of that I got no response from the developer when reporting this. Finally the UX needs improvement, for example with how it whites out the map squares when zooming rather than magnifying them until the new image data loads.

  3. 5/5Good App

    This is the best hiking map app I’ve tried so far. The topo info is accurate and detailed. The app itself is simple to use. Would like more overlays that would be useful to someone who does a lot of bushwhacking.

  4. 3/5Decent app, but could use some improvement

    Overall the app is good for what you get. Could benefit from a redesign though to a slightly more simple and modern design. It would also be nice to mark points and routes through the watch app itself and not just through the phone app. I think if the UI was improved and those features were added, this app could compete against some of the larger more popular apps. Looking forward to future development!

    THE 1 THE ONLY SAVAGE · 31 Jul 2026

  5. 3/5It works.

    The app is fine. It works well enough and I appreciate the low cost, one-time purchase pricing on maps. Subscription apps are trash. The issue I have is the lack of trail maps/layers. The only option I can find is “mountainbike trails” which doesn’t seem to populate the hiking trails I’m looking for when backpacking. It’s especially odd since I can manually set waypoints and create a route that seems to follow the trails that are there, but the trails themselves are not visible. Very strange.
