Sorry guys, didn't provide a link as i was updating maps on my iPad when the message that it was free popped up and I had to send the post from my macbook or lose my downloads queue.

Still updating maps, will look for link when finished.

Downloaded to iPad but doesn't say pro, then it gives you the option to download maps, are these free, don't want to click on them and get charged.

We already have the Maps.Me download on our Android tablet, however, I thought the Maps.Me Pro app which Hymie posted about, was something better. :(

Cheers,

Jock.

They will probably spam you with adverts for a paid version of the pro eventually!

France. You have to download region by region...its a bit of a pain. Maps I fink quite big files so make sure you have enough memory..

Also how do you link the url above into as for the life of me i cant see how this is done.

Thanks in advance

Alan,
Alan, I tried that on my tablet, but nothing happened, so I closed Maps.Me app, tried the download again, and reopened app again. Still nothing, although I have to admit to being a bit of a novice when it comes to anything Android. ;)

Cheers,

Jock.

I could only get this to work using google chrome on IOS (Apple devices), the default safari will always revert to the mobile site which does not have this function. Although even on chrome i couldnt get it to download any file with any content as it always showed zero favourites inside the app itself. not looked for a few days so may try again the weekend.

We have been using this app as our only gps navigation around Morocco and it has just got us into Central Marrakech with no hiccups. For a free app and map downloads I think it's great. Cannot say fairer than that for something that's free.

The best thing about it is the offline use, so you are not using up all your mobile data whilst driving along. It also knows where the campsites are. Put the coordinates in and it finds the spot straight away.

Anyone know how to download the search for sites info onto these maps?
Once you have downloaded the map and routing for whatever country you want, go into the search menu and put in campsites, as you zoom in a little tent symbol appears on the map, tap on that and it will tell you the name of the campsite in the top left of the screen. Also you can search by campsite address or coordinates or we have found one just by name. I am using ipad and iPhone, it is a little different on Colin's Samsung but not much. In fact I would say that it is better on the Samsung tab than the ipad.

I got there in the end. :LOL:
As an experiment, and using Al-Di's instructions above, and www.searchforsites.co.uk I've just downloaded the CC sites and CLs, and the C&CC sites and CS onto my Maps.Me UK map.

I'll try your method Sandra, when I download an EU map. (y)

Thanks to you, and Alan above for your help. :)

Cheers,

Jock.
