Using Online Maps

Tap the Map Folder icon on the toolbarto open the Map List. This initially displays a list of maps that are already installed on the device, and that cover the geographic location that you were looking at. If you are just getting started, there is probably just one free basemap in the list.

To download additional maps, tap the Digital Map Store button. This changes the list to show available maps, that cover the same geographic location.

If you wish to find maps covering another location, tap Maps Everywhere. You are prompted to enter a search, which can be a place name, such as a city or country, or it could be a keyword such as the name of a map publisher.

The app defaults to showing just Topo maps and Basemaps, but Digital Map Store contains many different types of specialist maps, for marine use, aviation, historical maps, street maps, etc. To access these additional types, explore the expanding sections in the map list.

 

 

You can select My Online Maps to show a list of maps that you have purchased as well as free maps. If you have a Memory-Map account, you have to sign in before all your maps will appear in the map list. Tap Menu, Map Licenses, Sign in.

 

If you have made map purchases through your iTunes account, instead of signing in, you will need to Recover your In-App Purchases. You only need to do this one time after installing the app. Cancel out of this dialog and go to the Flip side, tap Settings, Map Licenses, Recover your In-App Purchases
