Download a map to the Xplorer GPS app, view your location and hit the trail – download a planned route, follow a familiar trail, or just wander where the moment takes you, safe in the knowledge that you can navigate your way home when you’re ready, even without mobile signal or in poor weather conditions.

Adventure with confidence:
Your current location plotted via GPS, your downloaded route and offline topographic map give you the information you need to keep yourself safe, wherever you xplore; enabling you to respond to conditions on the ground, changes in the weather or the needs of your group.

I have used the SatMap device for over 10 years. I could not be without it. I also plan routes using xPedition2 on the laptop. Now I have started using the Xplorer app on the phone and it is just as good. Very similar to the SatMap. I cannot really fault it. I have tried other phone apps like Hiiker and Komoot, but Xplorer is by far the best. If you get this you should link it to xPedition2 on the computer for planning routes.

Would have been great if I could have used my expensive maps for my expensive and now unsupported satmap device. The info suggests that this is possible and you can still buy downloadable maps, which I haven't tried to do. However, they don't respond to emails and I have now given up. There are better apps out there that give great mapping and routes either free or for less money than you would spend with this lot.
