Hello, I am in need of assistance please. I have purchased the app focus pro and install the app on my android. I have also downloaded the Pennsylvania New Jersey map which is usable off-line. I am trying to find out how to download the topical maps for use off-line as well. My main use of your app is to be used on trails we are no Wi-Fi is available. We have used the street maps and they work great unfortunately I need some help getting the US topple maps to download to be used offline can you assist me with this so that we can use your app more fully. I am in the process of installing the app on my boyfriends phone but I need to have everything functioning from the street maps and the top on maps on his android phone before I give him the phone to use off-line this is a very important feature that we need and your help is greatly appreciated

If you downloaded the LoMaps version of Pennsylvania and New Jersey, then they include topographical information (contour lines). You can show or hide the contour lines using Map Themes.

For example, I have LoMaps New York and here is what Whiteface Mountain looks like with the "Road" Map Theme.

Here is the same place with the "Hike & Bike" Map Theme:

Dear Chrissy,


if you need offline topo map and also street map then the LoMaps are the best solution for you. As Taras mentioned you can change themes for LoMaps and influence the appearance of the map itself. You can download maps via: Menu > Store > Americas > United States


Locus supports also Neotreks maps (Accutera maps) - please see http://www.locusmap.eu/neotreks-maps-essential-for-hiking-in-the-us/ These maps can be useful for information about about Land use.


Best regards
