App Intro

Navigating New Zealand's stunning landscapes just got easier with this comprehensive outdoor navigation app. Offering detailed topographic maps of New Zealand, the Cook Islands, and Tokelau, it’s designed for anyone venturing off the beaten path. Whether you're a seasoned tramper, a keen cyclist, or embarking on an off-road adventure, this app provides the essential tools you'd expect from dedicated GPS devices. Its user-friendly interface allows for creating and managing waypoints, recording detailed tracks with speed and elevation data, and utilizing a robust tripmaster for all your journey statistics. With extensive map layers, including official LINZ Topo50 maps used by emergency services, and the ability to overlay conservation areas and points of interest, this app is an invaluable companion for planning and executing outdoor expeditions. The ability to preload map data for areas with no cell service is a significant advantage for remote exploration, making it a worthy download for serious outdoor enthusiasts.

User reviews

Absolutely brilliant for my tramping trips in the Tararuas! The Topo50 maps are spot on, and I love being able to record my routes. ⛰️

Finally, a decent offline map app for NZ! Used it on a multi-day cycle tour and it was a lifesaver when I lost signal. Highly recommend the Pro version! 👍
