best map in hk, far more details than Google map. finally the government has done something right
The map UI is far better than the old one.
Most useful map, use it all the time.
Informative, specific local information
Lamp posts can be indicators for emergency response units to locate where accicidents occur, which this app contains these information to faciliate the use of public resources.
All village without block number , how can i find?
Doesn't work anymore on Mi Mix 3, MIUI Global 11.0.4.0. App crashes upon first load each time.
can't use
Not update at all, much worse compare to other app.
The most detailed map of Hong Kong by far. It has lots or additional information, like WiFi hotspots, convenience stores, traffic live data... It is also a great app, very fast overall and with clear map display. Well done!
The best Hong Kong Map!
Really useful
Good map source because it is mapped by lands dept, who has the most accurate maps. And it runs with no issue. However, only allowing two page of offline map is a real issue, as map data download draws mobile data and battery power . Also wish that navigation could be provided
Once installed this app I feel like CY Leung is watching me.
Hope to have more information about the bus stops, such as, which buses stop at that stop. Thanks!
Good app. With MTR exits!
The facilities nearby don't show on the map
Hiking
If you love hiking, it's a nice app to own. However, best if the map data could be stored offline so that users could read map without network coverage.
Using lollipop. The Go To Map function under Hiking is not working. It goes back to the front page
The app force close after android is upgraded to 5.0
Thanks for the unprecedented accurate Hong Kong digital map that have been long waiting for its appearance. The dimension accuracy is miles ahead better than the common but rough Google Map. Google Map still win in at least one aspect that it works offline. Improvement suggestion is to allow offline usage, at least the map without details.
It's great to have this apps installed in my cell phone, it makes me comfortable to hike in the beautiful countryside a lot more easier and safer too.
地政署成team人冇寫app經驗，邊做邊學，佢哋可以唔做唔錯，早D返屋企，但仍然做，非常感謝。The whole dept had no app programmer, the team learnt everything from scratch to make this for Hong Kongers. They could have choose to not do this proj so to save time and effort, but they did it anyway
Please allow move to disk!
i cant even get to see maps. it stops as soon as i press that. is it related to any of google services?
