What's New in Version 3.6
Restores synching functionality with Google's online “My Places” (previously “My Maps”).
Make backups of all KML files, as the synching process will overwrite your local files with those on Google's servers. You will be able to import the backup KML files (as in the previous version) after you upgrade.
Customer Reviews
My favorite app for travel abroad (4 stars)
This app was so helpful for my recent travels to Europe and Asia. I made elaborate maps in Google Maps before my trips or at hotels when I had internet, and then I downloaded and cached them in My Maps for use offline (I turned off data roaming while abroad).
It was great to be able to have general navigation ability and to be able to locate places that I wanted to visit without having a data plan or wifi. Though I downloaded other
Complicated and dishonest (1 star)
I got this app to access my Google maps, but they don't work with Google anymore – and they don't tell you that until after you pay for their app. Instead, there is this complicated 6-step process. This is not what I paid for.
This is only thing I have found to get my route maps on my phone. (5 stars)
Yea!!! Syncing is now working fantastic!! LOVE this App so much!
