WARNING! You will not be able to have any active maps in the free version. After the Blue Marble acquisition, you have to pay to use pins, tracking, navigation, etc. Downloading FS maps from Avenza is very limited in most areas. If you are going to pay for an app like this, you might as well put it towards something like OnX.

horrible user interface, maps are not stored in any recognizable order, not alphabetical, not numeric, not geographic, totally random. No way to overlay satellite imagery, have to go to another app for that. only thing it shows is a single 7.5 quad topo at a time. you have to guess what the adjacent one is and hunt for it within the app, lame!

It's very disappointed that Avenza is discontinuing the use of uploaded custom pdf maps for the free version. I've been using this app for this very reason to navigate sites and take, record, and export data. For folks who are still using it in this manner, go to your Google play store, search for the avenza app, click the three dots, and unselect 'Enable auto updates' this may prevent this change from taking place.
