Very detailed and the topo is great. It got me out of a jam this last weekend when I went off trail a few miles. It has some cool features too like moon and sun tables, balistic tables, etc.

I Run it on an iphone 6 plus easy to read. Download satellite and topo views for area you are going to be in before leaving cell service or internet service.

Like arnold says - its on the app store.

Post by: Bean Counter on October 10, 2016, 02:27:51 AM: I use MotionX on my phone. I've really sat around with my thumb up my butt on it for a few years until I started discovering all its features this year. For one, I can download a specifc, customizable sector of maps before I go to the field much like MotionX. But IIRC this app doesn't show private property boundaries that I know of.
