Great app, but it's really struggling to download maps with a weaker network coverage. Update 24.10.2023: it's not that. It really wasn't able to download maps, even with good coverage. What I did instead: I removed and re-installed the app, and now it works. There must have been corrupted memory files or smth. It would be worth investigating the logs on your end. Pixel 5 phone. Thanks.

Hello, Thank you for your update on the download problem. Sometimes it is enough to clear the cache in the settings of the smartphone. However, we will forward your note to the developers and keep an eye on it. Kind regards swisstopo

I have used this app for quite some time like it a lot! One factor it sets it above competing apps is, that you always see the time left on your planned route which gets updated as you progress. But: In the last two months, the app crashes all the time when I have a route selected to follow it. It might be an issue related to zooming and relying on offline maps. I wasn't able to pinpoint it. I use version 1.11.0 on a Pixel 7 pro with Android 13.

Great app for searching for hiking routes and following them. It provides altitude profiles and estimated walk times which update as you progress. Care is required as some trails we followed were almost non-existent. Usefully, it shows up trail closures. Currently, however, it crashes a lot - probably 15 times on a walk today. It does restart quickly so crashes were not hugely disruptive.
