This is a relatively simple addition to the Travel category of the App Store, but I think the developer has done a pretty decent job of providing iOS users with an offline alternative to Google Maps. There’s nothing wrong with Google Maps in my opinion, but this definitely serves as a worthy substitute at a pinch.
