This post is for smartphone owners only.
Do not rely upon your phone for mapping. Your phone will fail when out of battery, when wet and when cold… Take a paper backup with you an all trips to the hills.
Links are all desktop – the apps are all available in your App Store. All come highly recommended so get them!
viewranger – https://www.viewranger.com/en-gb – my go to app – why? because it works, it has good customer support and it does the stuff that strata or wikiloks does BUT with OS Maps as a paid for option.
maps.me – https://maps.me – my go to stripped down map app. Not cluttered, easy to read and follow and FREE!
OS Maps – https://www.ordnancesurvey.co.uk/shop/os-maps-online.html – The professionals choice but now viewranger have this at the same price it seems a no brainer to go there…
strava – https://www.strava.com – The runners and cyclists choice – used by Martin 🙂
wikiloc – https://www.wikiloc.com – The Walkers choice – used by Al
