App Details

With the London Transport Map app getting around the city has never been simpler. The way this one works is that it doesn't actually provide the maps rather it provides users with links to the maps online. The app is a way to download and save the information so you don’t have to keep going online for it. There are map packs available for purchase which also gives you additional content.

What else does the app offer? Well with this app you can find nearby hotels, bars, restaurants, cafes, ATMs, and so much more. After you save the content it will be available to you offline and you’ll find that moving through the app is very simple. This one could do with a bit of refreshing and refining just to give a sleeker look to it.
