Iv found this to be my favourite topo maps app for all my trips. Iv used it in thick off track bush to on the mountains and even sea kayaking. Very accurate and a great backup to a laminated paper map. My one wish is that they would make this available on the Apple Watches.

We always use this app and find it really great for our trip planning and while away. Great support contact if you have any questions or issues also.

Not anything like I was hoping for. I followed a previous review thinking these maps would be detailed. Believe me, they are not. I would like my money back as I will not use these maps at all. Very disappointed. Don’t believe positive reviews if you want a detailed map this is not it. I live in Australia and these maps will not be of any functional use in the real world

What a waste of money. Purchasing the Topo maps alone or through a subscription to ViewRanger (for full GPS functionality) is a MUCH better way to go.

I tested iHike GPS NZ over 12 days of hiking and it’s now part of my essential kit. Just pick one of the Record Track options and hit the trail - your location and track travelled is clearly displayed on the free Topo 50 maps. It’s easy to add waypoints - just one press for your current location or choose a point from the map. I created routes in advance from waypoints, but you can also import a GPX file. Displays ETA at next waypoint which is nice, but would be great to have route ETA as well. Switching between topo 50 and 250 map series is a bit clunky, although you don’t need to do so very often. Highly recommend this app.

I do love this app however, It would be awesome to be able to “trace” a route rather than have to string waypoints together or import a gpx file from another app. In my opinion that would make this the best gps hiking app.

Get the elevation above sea level for any location from a Digital Elevation Model database. We're regularly improving this app so it will be even more useful! What's new in iHikeGPS NZ compared with other available New Zealand topo map apps? • Real Navigation Power: Unlike other apps that simply display waypoints and routes on a map, iHikeGPS NZ empowers you to do real navigation to those waypoints and along those routes while receiving crucial information such as Estimated Time of Arrival, current bearing, and remaining distance and elevation gain to intermediate and final destinations. Use iHikeGPS NZ when you are on the trail and away from cell service. • You can view an elevation graph of your tracks and your routes with waypoints, speed and % grade shown on it. • You can create, import, edit, and navigate both on routes based on a recorded or imported path, and on routes based on a series of waypoints. • There is never any confusion over what maps you have available offline. They are clearly listed and shown on an overview map. • Includes 250K scale topo maps for Australia with no additional charge. • iHikeGPS NZ' s code size is kept very small by efficient programming so in an emergency, you can download it easily even over a weak cell connection. • The current version of iHikeGPS NZ runs on the latest devices and also on older devices with older versions of iOS , all the way back to devices such as the iPhone 6. • Check the App Privacy section. We don't know who you are when you are using iHikeGPS NZ. We never send your current location or your recorded track to our servers. Hence we cannot and don't use your location data. We cannot and don't provide your location data to anyone else. Unlike other mapping apps that profit from using your location data in ways that do not keep it private, iHikeGPS NZ maintains the highest level of data confidentially.
