Fantastic for Georeferencing images using Google Maps satellite view and then saves it as a .kmz file, which is super handy. One shortcut that took me a while to discover is you don't really need to spend time rotating and zooming the map as long as you match up the point on the map with the point on the satellite. But the rotating and zooming is very handy for confirming if you are unsure.
I have used this app for years and love it. But, have now ran into an issue. I get an error of "The selected map could not be load as it was to large". I get this when trying to create a new map from a jpg. The jpg is 3615 x 4600, ie 16,629,000 pixels. The limit is 24 megapixels. Ideas?
Very useful app as a taxi driver. I made whole London and if I have to be in a certain area just turn it on. The only problem the app doesn't support large files so it reduces the quality of the file I use. Hope it will be fixed
Does what it does great! This is such a useful tool though would it be possible to allow import of pre-georeferenced images (geotiffs)? Then the app instantaneously allows people to use other custom maps too
How can anyone rate this less than a 5? It does exactly what it says it can do. I've used this to geo-tag over fifteen maps that I use all the time. I've even downloaded depth charts for our local lakes and geo-tagged them so I know where the drop-offs are. It's incredible that this is free with no ads. Thank you Marko for taking the time to develop this.
Excellent app. After updating from the previous version, you can get all your previous maps back by opening them individually from the Custom Maps folder. Once in the app, you can save all your maps using 'Export all maps'
Fantastic app. I needed something like this for work, and luckily somebody had thought of creating it. I don't consider myself a map fanatic, but I'm even using it in my free time to play around with historical maps of my local area!
Brilliant app. I drew a map of my home town as it was in 1830 from old surveyor maps, exported it as a 4800 x 4800 px PNG, imported it into the app, made 5 tie points, and it worked perfectly and accurately. Great for navigating historical maps.
Very cool app. Would be nice to be able to enter coords for tie points without data service. Integration with OSMAnd would be fantastic, but just being able to enter lat / lon directly world be good.
App does exactly what it claims to do. Simple and Easy. No interference from ads. More options to save and export would be good.
Fantastic job, I have a question/suggestion though. Is it possible to create/select a mode where the user always points forwards on the screen and the map rotates instead?
Warning, many rating bots. This is not what it seems to be. When you load in it asks you to load a image of a map. I didn't get much further than that. Way too confusing. It goes to your folders on your phone. It doesn't even go straight to you image folder. You have to find it.
It did not work at all and I did not know what to do with my images. Edit: This review was written on a Chromebook. I didn't try this app on a Chromebook. The issues listed above were from when I was using Custom Maps on my phone.
Fantastic app! Thank you for developing such a useful tool. Much easier than creating a similar map on Google Earth.
Nothing else like it. I use this every time I go on a backpacking trip. It's so nice to have a blue dot on a park map. Love the new features and UI.
Working great, calibration is simple, good idea, good implementation. Using it for years now.
I have been using this app for years. Now it appears that the new version cannot use the 100s of maps I already have.
We use it for orienteering maps in Turkey after uploading .kmz file into the app's folder. Thank you for this very useful work.
Wow simply perfect! Was able to make GPS versions of my grandfather's nautical charts in no time at all!
This game is good but sometimes when I pick a photo I see preview then glitches happen and the game stopps but this game is still awesome more than that!
I really wanted to use this app but for some reason it's giving me 404 error code when I click on any map please help!!!!
I've been doing some offroad/woods driving using maps from whatever park I visit. The problem is some trails are easy to miss just looking at a static map. Google maps gps mapping is great but it doesnt match the park map. Google maps is either missing valid park trails or has ones which are not valid trails. This looks like exactly what I need to take a park map and use the gps position on THAT map. I havent tried it anywhere except at home, but this seems to do exactly what I need. Thanks!
