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)
Satellite / Aerial 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.
Waypoints 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. (Coming soon, 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, so you don't have to keep downloading areas that was viewed recently)

What’s new

Full re-write of the app to make it more future-proof and easier to maintain.
Fixed permission BUG.
Fixed disappearing checkpoints.
Improved map view restore.
Added coordinate display.
Expect more free features, but finally also a paid upgrade version with some extra features.
