Must have for hiking in the UK
If you’re going hiking in the UK and not taking this app on your smartphone then you are a fool.
Definitely worth the cost of the premium version to get access to the detailed maps and offline maps.
OS maps always had amazing accuracy and detail - now you can use gps on your phone to see exactly where you are among all that detail.
Great for planning free form hikes to get you off the beaten path.
Only thing the app can’t tell you is the condition of the trail or footpath you are going to hike on - huge clumps of stinging nettles are a real thing - but you can use the app to replay your hike on the fly to avoid whatever you encounter that you don’t want to deal with.
All this for less than the cost of a single paper map - it’s a bargain!

Dr Poston,
Major technical issues syncing to iPhone and I Pad
When I originally installed the apps and upgraded to Premium, everything worked fine. I logged out, but could never log back in with my premium subscription, both on the website and on the smart devices. I was finally able to log back on to their website but only by changing my password, which is ridiculous. And when I used the new password on my iPhone and iPad, in both cases I received the message that an unexpected error had occurred. Technical support did their best to help but the issue remains unresolved.
There’s another feature of the app that is very annoying (this was before all my technical issues). The screen has a window with the option to start navigation. I only wanted to look at the route, not navigate. Unfortunately this window takes up a significant part of the screen, blocking a large part of the map. For some unknown reason, you can not close this window, and tech help said that the app developers aren’t currently going to change it.
All in all, it’s a great app when it worked for me, and most people don’t appear to have had the problems I’ve experienced. I hope that tech people read this and do some more development work.

Jonathan M.C.,
Just terrible
I downloaded a paper map, then zoomed in on it, but it failed to show up. I close & reopen map; still not showing. Then I kill the app, reopen, and finally the map shows on zoom in. Really this app is poorly map. I think I will move to AllTrails instead. OSM is so much better now.
Previous complaint: drove to remote location with no mobile phone to do a hill walk. Opened the app and nothing worked: it had logged me out and refused to show my downloaded map. There I was, in the wilderness, and no electronic map! Thankfully, I brought paper map. This app is useless to me if it requires mobile data to operate on hill walks!

DavidP 4200,
Doesn’t work. Period.
All you get on trying to log in to the iPhone/iPad app is “Unknown error occurred. Please try again.” Really helpful.
I paid for the Premium version so that I could import routes. Just getting the login working on their site was a chore; their domain and session handling seems a mess. And now I find the iPhone app is effectively useless. Can I have my money back please?

mtn bike man,
Terrific app
This app does so much in a easy to learn format. I highly recommend it!
jfsavage,
Doesn’t work when connected to the internet
Update. The app works great with no internet connection. Disable mobile data for the app and it works great.
Having purchased paper maps, I’ve used this app to download the off-line version. The app continually requires me to re-login, and I frequently have to re-download, or at least verify the download, before I can use the maps. Horribly flaky behaviour.

Spencer E Holtaway,
Very good. Missing one basic thing!
I use this app whenever visiting family in the UK, for hikes and runs as it points out locations of historical interest as well as footpaths in the countryside.
I’m back for the first time in 4 years (thanks covid) and just in time to try the new snap to path feature which is great! Wow!
The one thing missing is that I can’t save locations the map and to a list. I’d love to be able to save “mum’s house”, as well as other destinations I’d like to visit without having to plot a route.
Love OS, they’re great maps!

AJSoaks,
Not serious about safety
The app developers are pretty casual with their users’ safety. Offline maps are an important safety tool on a hike and if you can’t rely on them being available (or if they’re not available at all zoom levels), it can be a risk to use them on a hike. Given that this is basically a government funded endeavour, it’s terrible how careless they are.
Multatuli2,
Don’t see how to integrate with OS hiking guides
I’m a big user of Ordnance Survey hiking guides, particularly the Pathfinder series, but don’t see a way to integrate these routes into the App.
Am I missing something?

RichyRichBda,
Offline maps are buggy
Downloaded a couple of maps from purchase of paper versions. Zooming causes the map to be truncated. Can’t be relied upon. Test before you leave.
