Coverage: this app makes available more than 70,000 maps covering the United States, including Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands, and Canada.
The Maps: This app uses high-quality scans of the traditional USGS and NRCan topographic maps which have been the definitive resource for hikers and other backcountry users for many years. You can make the terrain stand out with hill shading, using simulated sunlight from the direction of your choice. This app does not use the new "US Topo" maps because they do not show hiking trails and lack other details: please see the web site for more details.
Downloading: US maps are around 8 MB in size and download in a few seconds on a typical home broadband connection. Canadian maps are larger. Both cellular data and WiFi can be used, though WiFi is likely to be more reliable in most cases.

The new beta topo maps 2 has zero functionality, so please don’t stop supporting the original.

Almost perfect NO SUBSCRIPTION Topo app

I have used this app for years, iPhone 4 days. I wish the developer would update the maps but even as it is it is far more useful than most. It seems like it’s been abandoned which is sad. But it’s still worth it, You pay ONCE and have access to download Topo maps of the entire U.S. for as long as you want. All on your phone so no data connection needed. All is not roses though. - alignment is seriously bad in some places. Laughably so. Central Washington state has maps so far out of alignment that adjoing maps look like cards tossed randomly on a table. I have paper USGS Topo maps of the exact same sections and those align perfectly. My National Geographic Topo maps of the same area align perfectly as does my Gaia GPS app. Not sure why these are so badly out of whack. Seems to happen somewhere in areas of various different states i have downloaded maps for -there needs to be a GPS tracking feature. So the app lays down a trail that follows your progress and the tracks can be saved and recalled. The app is really lacking in usefulness without that feature. I am still having to use Topo! Which has this feature so I can save tracks of my adventures. I would love to not have to use Topo! anymore though because it was built for windows 95/XP and that ship has long since sailed. -this isn’t 2000 anymore so the 36 map or whatever limitation that exists when downloading hi-res versions of maps should be removed. These maps are small and downloading even an entire state would be very manageable on todays fast WiFi connections. - need to be able to import GPX files -

Thanks

IOS 16.2 issues

I am having the same trouble as others. I can’t open the app. Is there a bug fix yet?

Was great

Loved this app until iOS 16 was downloaded, now app doesn’t work at all, can’t even open it. If you’re running iOS 15 it still works and is a great app. Needs up dated badly, 7 years is tooooo long to not have a update to keep it usable. This is a update on this app. As of 12-20-2022 this app is again working as before. Not sure who did what to fix it, but thanks. IMO this is the best Topo app that I know of and I have tried a lot of them. It’s simple to use, the price is right, and will show you where your at or want to go without having service, works off GPS. I changed my rating from a 1 star to a 5 star.

No Longer Works At All

We were excited on

When I got my IPhone 14 this quit working. I deleted it, reinstalled it, and it was even worse. Don’t waste your time

BEST TOPO APP FOR LAND SURVEYORS

YOUREMOMGAYE on

United States

I use USGS topos daily and this app is really the best way to use these in modern day. No other topo app has real USGS quad maps, and this one having the ability to walk me to within a hundred feet of a section/township/ range corner is amazing. It is especially helpful to download these quad maps for when I go to remote locations. Can’t recommend it enough if you are a surveyor. People complain about the outdated maps but if you want a newer map you shouldn’t be using USGS topos

Outstanding app

i’ve been using this on backpacking trips for years. It’s fabulous. What could be better than TopoMaps? Thank you for a great product.

Used Topo maps on a 5 days wilderness trip. Cell phone was on airplane mode to preserve battery life. The Topo map app let me know exactly where I was every step of the way. Just download all the Topo maps you need ahead of time for free and then you are set.
