Guru Maps Pro & GPS Tracker

Used to be one heck of an app. But with each new update it gets worse and worse and worse. Been using it daily for work for 3 years. Used to work great. But each update makes it more and more unreliable. These days it doesn’t even track right and will be off by miles, that is if it even works and your location doesn’t just freeze up. I’m having to search for a different app now because this one is unreliable. It is just a junk app that takes up space on my tablet now.

Great app, but for some reason since a recent update the elevation gain calculation is way off.

the best app for Hiking - - - It's very user friendly. It uses very little battery power It allows you to store and organize your hikes You can quickly and roughly estimate distance Color coding is helpful in navigating routes You can use it to easily drive to your trailhead

I've been using Guru Maps for years and have been in awe at the quaity of this app. Among all the power-user mapping apps like Gaia, OnX, Cartograph Maps, Inroute, etc. only 2 I tried could handle loading 1,000,000mi of GPX tracks at once while remaining 100% smooth and responsive. Guru was by far the best in my test, with Cartograph Pro 2nd. I use both to this day, but Guru is still my favorite. It has nice clean folders and files for GPX tracks, but also the perfect amount of minimal metdata like map icons, line colors, labels, etc. It's extremely power-efficient, and I've used it to navigate record with the screen on and off over 20 hrs with tons of tracks loaded, it's never crashed or even lagged once, I don't know how they do it. There is only one tiny feature I'd wish they add and then it's 100% perfect: the abilitiy to set the line color for a whole folder (recursively) in one go.

the best been using this since 2013 and it has never let me down.

I've been using Guru Maps Pro for many years on my iOS and iPadOS devices to navigate my travels around the world. The OSM Maps are the best maps for offline (or online for that matter). Guru's move to the macOS platform is a really nice addition - though I must admit I don't use it on my MacBook Air much as my iPadPro is much faster and I like the touch interface. Overall, Guru is my go to offline/Navigation App. I do my long range travel planning in Furkot.com and Export my GPX data in Guru GPX format. Data management on Guru is straight forward and I haven't found any real limitations. With the Pro-version, I have 79GB of the worlds roads (maps) on my iPhone & iPadPro. Those maps update frequently at no additional cost. The only thing missing for me, feature wise, is Track Editing features.

After many km in the road with Guru( I’ve used other navigations apps before) this is THE best app. I get to see small backroads that I’ll never have found by myself. And I’m confident that I’ll not be taken to dead ends or anything impossible. Thanks a lot

Easy to import GPX files. I was able to navigate with Guru Maps Pro in the mountains of Ecuador. I use the app anyplace I might not have cellular service. I'm very happy that the app keeps improving and getting updated. A lot of features have been added over time. I use it less for recording, but the option is there. A solid mapping and navigation tool.

Have tried them all, and this one is truly outstanding.

This program is by far the best program for navigation of offline mapping. Evgen is always improving the functions for faster access. Just added is Apple CarPlay which puts it above the competition. A few minor bugs are being worked on at the time of this review but believe me, they will probably be fixed before you download. I highly recommend this program for both vehicle and hiking.
