Cool App, but does it support offline routing?

That is just not possible with google maps because what you are downloading are map images, not data.

Huge, huge fan of xGPS.

Desktop map downloading tool!
Google maps! (Hey, these "Open Maps" are ok, but seriously, they don't stack up to the legit Google ones)
FAST - way more responsive when zooming compared these "apps" Must quicker and more obvious GPS signal aquisition

This app alone is worth the jailbreak.

Concerning the problem of planning ahead…
I’ve uploaded a little app to the appstore that not only lets you see the maps offline but also lets you search for places and streets, and calculates routes WHILE you are offline… so it may be helpful to you.

Regards,
Ignacio.

I downloaded omaps it took a long time but I have the map. Unfortunetely I am in San Jose Costa Rica and the macine downloaded a map from some part of France. Probably there not many mapas for South America. My question is how can I erase the map I downloaded since it is of no use to me and it is taking space from my iPod. Sorry I just got the machine three days ago.
Someone can help me out

Thanks

Such a simple yet great idea. I was out of the country a few times and this would have come in handy. The data charges are way too high over seas. I do wonder how well this application can recognize streets and land marks without an online database.

Why can’t I find oMaps in the App Store?

Check out Wikimap. It also allows users to save open street maps for offline navigation. On top of that, users can view and create waypoints, images, and wiki pages which are automatically shared to other Wikimap users.
