About this app

Simple map viewing app that can be used to view Swedish online map sources without having to use the browser, giving a simpler and more convenient user-experience on mobile devices.

Online sources such as:
Swedish topographic map (Topografisk webbkarta) from Lantmäteriet
Hitta.se (hitta.se/kartan)
Eniro.se (kartor.eniro.se)
OpenStreetMap (OSM) (skobbler.com)
Satellite pictures of Sweden

It can use the internal GPS and compass sensors to show your current location, course direction and speed.
It has, "north-up" and "course-up" viewing modes.
A simple waypoint can be added and the direction and distance to the waypoint will be shown.
The waypoint coordinates can be changed by tapping on the waypoint marker.

This app is free, and also ad-free.

There will later be an extended paid version. (At least, that is the plan...)

It requires:
Internet access to download the online maps
Location permission if you want it to display your current location (speed, and direction)

Please note: it cannot download maps for offline use (but it does cache the map tiles temporarily, so you don't have to keep downloading areas that was viewed recently)
