Australia Maps HD app for iPhone and iPad

These are HD version of our regular maps - it allows you to zoom in more than any other australian map in the app store.

Do you feel online Google Maps is too slow showing you the map? Do you want an easy way to mark and remember where you are? Do you need a list of streets where you are? You don’t want to carry around a big unwieldy paper map? Tired of having the paper map blown to pieces by the wind every time you try to figure out where you are and where you need to go?

The mobile streetmaps are for you! All the map data is loaded on your iPhone or iPad before you leave your home, so can you be on the streets, offline, and still know everything about the area you are in, and locate yourself or any street in the city. You don’t need any network connection at all once the application is installed on your iPhone – no WiFi, no 3G, no GPRS!

You can choose from the following maps:

Adelaide
Albury
Bournda National Park
Brisbane
Canberra
Darwin
Geelong, Great Otway National Park
Hervey Bay, Maryborough, Bundaberg
Hobart
Maroochydore
Melbourne
Perth
Surfers Paradise, Gold Coast
Sydney
Townsville, Magnetic Island
Wagga Wagga
Wollongong


The first map you pick is a free download, after that the maps are in-app purchases.

All the data for each map is stored on your iPhone or iPad, so it works where you have no access to the Internet - it works where Google Maps is inaccessible. This prevents expensive data roaming charges by loading all the map data to your iPhone or iPad before you leave home. You can turn off all network functions and still be able to find your way around. Lets you find all streets, and many useful locations such as ATMs, parkings, museums, and many others. Remembers where youve been so you can find that parking spot where you left your rental car, or that great restaurant. Allows you to mark interesting locations to visit in advance.

To make sure your phone doesnt use any expensive data on your trip, go to Settings, then General, tap on Network, and slide the Data Roaming to "off". Note: GPS functions work on the iPhone and iPad 3G only, the iPod and WiFI iPad use "assisted GPS" based on nearby WiFi networks, and often know roughly where you are, but they are not as precise as GPS equipped iPhones and iPads.
