Using Maps Purchased Outside the App
Due to a change in Apple's policies, you are no longer permitted to browse the full range of premium maps that are available in the app. The Digital Map Store listing displays free maps, maps that you have already purchased on the Memory-Map web site, and maps that are available to buy via your iTunes account with an in-app purchase. Additional maps are listed on the Buy Licenses page in the license management web site. If you need help finding a specific map, please refer to the FAQ, or contact tech support.
If you select a map that has to be activated, the software prompts you to Sign In to your account. If you have used Memory-Map (version 5.2 or later) on the PC, you should sign in using the same name and password as you used previously. All the resources in your account are then available for activation on the iPhone. If you are new to Memory-Map, you have to create an account on the PC or on the web site first.
When you have signed in, you are prompted to activate the map. If you already purchased the map, it shows the number of activations available in your account and allows you to use the map.
It you have used up all the activation rights for a map, you need to go to the web site. There is no longer any option to purchase maps from within the app, as this is not permitted my Apple's new rules.
Some maps are licensed by the square kilometer, and instead of having to buy the whole map, you can purchase just as much as you need. In this case, an "Activate" button is shown on the map. When this is pressed, the application will show you how many square km are in your account and how many are needed to activate the region of the screen. Clicking Activate will unlock the map data for the region shown on the screen.
If you don't activate the map, it is displayed with a blurry, grayed-out appearance. This allows you to see major features, even though the map is disabled
