Description:
Kartasto has a large collection of Finnish maps from open data sources for free, e.g. National Land Survey topographic maps, Traficom sea area maps, Helsinki city maps and several OpenStreetMap variations. You also get free topographic maps of Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Estonia and Spain.
You can save your favorite places on the map. They are automatically synced between all your devices using iCloud.
Kartasto has an Apple Watch app that shows the map around your current location. The Watch app uses a custom map built using SwiftUI.
The map widget for iOS 14 allows you to customise your home screen with your favourite map that automatically updates to follow your current position.
Kartasto works wonderfully on both iPhone and iPad, with full keyboard and trackpad support. Future versions will add even more exciting features.
Kartasto Pro unlocks full functionality of the app:
- Record workouts using GPS positioning and motion sensors in your iPhone.
- Inspect workouts from Health app on your favourite map.
- Export recorded workouts and saved places as GPX files.
- Import GPX files and view their information on the map.
- Download areas of maps to your device for offline use.
- New features added in future versions.
If some map available via open data APIs is not yet included, or you want to make your maps available in Kartasto, please email me at feedback@freshbits.fi. Also follow on Twitter and Instagram at @KartastoApp.
This app has been built by one developer as a hobby project during many evenings and weekends. Please be nice and take this into account when giving feedback.
Please note that continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.
