These detailed maps cover the South Island, Stewart Island, North Island, Kermadec group, Chatham Islands, as well as select Antarctic regions including the Ross Sea and surrounding sub-antarctic islands.

Once downloaded, the maps are stored locally on the device, eliminating the need for an active internet connection or cellphone coverage during use. This feature enhances reliability in remote settings.

  • Options to share waypoints through email, iMessage, or AirDrop.
  • Import of waypoints and tracks from GPX files received via email or AirDrop.
  • Full support for geocaching activities with automatic color coding based on cache type using geocaching.com PocketQuery files.
