Offline maps for Maps is the biggest thing I was excited about. Was using a 3rd party app as a backup up until now.
I am curious, when would you need offline maps? Do you live in an area with bad cell network? Or is your data plan expensive?
Edit: thanks for all your answers. Next time I travel I will download the map of the destination area. Also I added hot spots such as the local stadium and the city center, hoping, that when I take the subway during rush hours maps will work snappier.
Perfect for flights. Once in the air gps still works. Just no cellular. I always had to ensure maps cache won’t die so I can track where I am during the flight.
Worried about getting lost along the way?
No just like to know what I see below.
