Offline maps
Download a map, fly without a signal
Italy, Europe or the whole planet. Each map is a single file the app reads straight off your phone: no server, no subscription, no expiry. Once it is on the device it works in airplane mode.
Available maps
The list updates itself: when I publish a new map it shows up here without me touching the site.

Comparison
Which one to pick
| Map | Covers | Detail | Size | Pick it if |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Italy | Italy | coastlines, cities and main roads | 37 MB | You fly in Italy and want to spend little space |
| World | The whole planet | cities, coastlines and main roads | 199 MB | You fly outside Europe, or you would rather stop choosing |
| Detailed Italy | Italy | minor roads, villages and runways as well | 223 MB | You fly low and need to see the terrain |
| Europe | Western and central Europe | coastlines, borders and major cities | 151 MB | You cross Europe in cruise |
| Detailed Europe | Western and central Europe | towns and main roads as well | 451 MB | You move around Europe and want to read the ground |
You can keep more than one on the phone and choose which to draw as you go: the light one for cruise, the detailed one when you descend.
Installation
From download to map
1
Download
Here in the browser, or — easier — from the app: Settings ▸ Map ▸ Download maps. The download keeps going with the app closed.
2
Import
Settings ▸ Map ▸ Import map from file, then pick the file you downloaded. A progress bar shows how it is going; when it finishes the map appears in the list with its zoom range and size.
3
Choose which one
In the list you switch on the one you want to see, switch it off without deleting it, or remove it to free space. The choice survives a restart.
Check your free space before you leave. Detailed Europe is 451 MB: download it on Wi-Fi and keep about twice that free while it imports. To fly in Italy, 37 MB are enough.
Why vector maps
Free image tiles cannot be bulk-downloaded and redistributed: the licences forbid it. Vector data can, and it weighs far less: all of Italy fits in 37 MB. The style, the fonts and the icons ship inside the app, so the map knows how to draw itself with no connection.
