MAPS.ME: Offline maps GPS Nav

MAPS.ME: Offline maps GPS Nav lets travelers download and use worldwide maps to find places and follow routes when an internet connection is unavailable. GPS supports driving, walking, and cycling navigation, including turn-by-turn guidance for offline journeys. Offline search covers points of interest, hiking trails, and locations that may be absent from other map services.

Maps categorize restaurants, cafes, tourist attractions, hotels, ATMs, metro stations, bus services, and other travel-related places. Ready-made guides help plan city sightseeing, road trips, and outdoor activities, while bookmarks preserve locations for later use. Saved places can be shared with friends, and location sharing works through text messages or social media.

The maps use OpenStreetMap data, which contributors update, and their storage-conscious design helps keep offline map files manageable. Route details can indicate whether cycling or walking sections go uphill or downhill, and coverage extends from familiar neighborhoods to international destinations. It suits tourists, drivers, hikers, cyclists, and anyone navigating areas with unreliable mobile connectivity.

Published by Maps_Me for Android in the Navigation & Travel category, the freeware edition also has a paid version with additional features; continued background GPS use can significantly drain the battery. In the current release, users can review completed routes, report navigation problems, and see an arrival-point screen with a review option when a route ends, alongside technical improvements and bug fixes.

Free to use — a paid version with additional features is also available.
