Memory-Map

Memory-Map, Inc.

About this app

The Memory-Map app turns your phone or tablet into a full-featured Outdoor GPS or Marine Chart Plotter, and allows you to navigate with Ordnance Survey Topo maps, Admiralty Marine charts or CAA aviation charts, even without a wireless internet signal.

If you are a new user, we recommend our new app "Memory-Map for All" instead of this one.

Maps are downloaded on-the-fly and can be pre-loaded so that they can be used offline. Once the app and maps are loaded to the phone or tablet, cellular network coverage or internet connection is not required for real time GPS navigation.

The Memory-Map app can be used as a standalone GPS navigator, but it can also be used in conjunction with the Windows PC app (free download) for planning, printing and loading up maps, waypoints and routes to the phone/tablet.

Memory-Map includes free access to 1:250,000 scale topographic maps and many other free maps around the world. More detailed maps are available for download and purchase with a free try-before-you-buy, time-limited demo option. Available maps include Ordnance Survey, British Admiralty, historical maps, aerial photos, and CAA aviation charts. Maps can be used on your PC as well as your phone and tablet. The Cloud Sync feature allows you to keep the overlay data consistent on all your devices.

Ratings and reviews

was a great app I thought. I paid the 9.99 but it constantly forgets that, glitches and asks for more money. I thought it would give me 12 months for 10 bucks of unlimited nautical charts, I use it to sail. They corresponded with email. kept telling me go to old edition. so I did 4 times. it won't let me access the 2018 charts I just paid 9.99 for a week or two ago. But in the email correspondence they fixed everything and now it's working again!!!

I've been using Nemory Map for years. 50,000 scale maps are great for mountain biking. Plotting routes, etc, is easy. I recently started plotting routes with the app on my phone. I used to use my laptop. While it's not as intuitive on the phone, once you've got the hang of it, it's super easy and convenient. Other apps have suggested routes, etc, which memory map doesn't do. But for route planning, I can't fault it.

I use the app all the time. Climbing and cycling. If you like real maps, this is for you. There are issues though, for instance the 'stay on' override doesn't work on all phones. Certainly not on the S7 active I use at the moment. Also, on a bike you need a phone that you can turn on just by pressing a button, as the maps go haywire if the screen is wet, and you therefore can't touch it, or leave it on any longer than needed. Apart from basic viewing, operation is not at all intuitive.
