MAPS.ME: Offline maps GPS Nav

MAPS.ME: Offline maps GPS Nav is an Android navigation application in the Navigation & Travel category. It is intended for travelers and other users who need maps, location search, and route guidance when an internet connection is unavailable. The app provides offline maps with driving, walking, and cycling navigation, using GPS to support route use without mobile data.

Users can search offline and find points of interest, hiking trails, and places that may be absent from other maps. Map categories include restaurants, cafes, tourist attractions, hotels, ATMs, and public transport such as metro and bus services. Ready-made travel guides support trip planning for city visits, car trips, and outdoor activities. Bookmarks let users save locations and share them with friends, while location sharing is also available through text messages or social media.

Maps are based on OpenStreetMap, an open-source alternative to popular map services, and are updated by its contributors. Optimized maps are designed to use storage efficiently, and the app can provide turn-by-turn directions along with information about whether a cycling or walking route is uphill or downhill. The service covers locations worldwide, so it can be used for both familiar areas and travel destinations.

On MirrorNest, the listing is provided as a link to the official release rather than as a mirrored copy of the application. The listed license is demo trial, so the catalog entry identifies the available licensing status for readers evaluating the Android app. MAPS.ME fits the Navigation & Travel category as an offline mapping and GPS tool, with continued background GPS use noted as a potential source of significant battery drain.

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