Offline Maps… Not Great in Australia
Only able to download a very small amount of offline maps… about the size of a large cupboard… not great when in Outback Australia… I’ve wasted my money on the one very badly

Great - but please fix CarPlay!
Works fantastically on iPad and iPhone. Best mapping app I’ve used. Great for planning and logging trips. CarPlay though needs some work. Direction of your icon doesn’t display correctly unless the phone is unlocked and on. Layers often don’t show correctly unless fiddled with on the phone until they snap into place. Not ideal when driving.
Good functions, mind the bugs
This is a very functional app, with a few funnies. Full disclosure I have premium so your experience might vary. I love the access to offline Australian government topo maps. Detail galore! My upgrade wish is for these to be available to view on Apple Car Play instead of restricting these to the base map so I can use them 4 wheel driving. Please? I’d love for the search function to be upgraded and debugged. I search for well known places across Australia but they sometimes don’t show up. Lesser known (gazetted towns) are nowhere to be found. I click on an alternative nearby then my start location defaults to this random pin every time I open the app. It’s frustrating. Otherwise keep developing it! Awesome app I plan to keep paying to use…
Still faulty
The latest version still doesn’t correctly record total ascent. On this morning’s work out it was showing 152m at one stage, then 137m by the time I finished. Very frustrating. MotionX GPS can do it, why not Gaia?
App is good, Apple CarPlay isn’t.
Honestly the app on it’s own is great. But the Apple CarPlay function isn’t there yet. It’s extremely glitchy. I find myself having to close it and reopen it often to keep it working. Definitely needs some work.
Not good enough to be useful
On the surface the app seems good, but selecting and editing saved routes is too unreliable and frustrating. Maybe using a browser it is better, but on iPad it is unusable. Can record routes o fine, but after that it is no good. Because editing is rubbish it means route planning is a problem too. I have AllTrails but that is no good for route planning. Will try Memory-Map next.
Unusable as can’t creat an account
App is unusable. Requires me to create an account then claims my email address is a invalid email when trying to creat the account.
Total rubbish
Can’t even find my location and I get other peoples routes glad I did not pay for it.
Works brilliantly, until it doesn’t!
This is a great app which i’ve been using professionally for a number of years. It’s amazing when it works but it can be slow to open and can crash when used over a prolonged period e.g. more than several hours.
Great app but now crashes since 5/2/2023 update
Pls fix why app crashes as soon as I click to open a folder. Nothing changed on my ph, soon as I updated the app it crashes
