i wonder. can even google be so stupid?
im in google maps. getting directions for todays drive from chambers to croft cottage. i think, no wifi on the way so may as well use gmaps offline.
except.
i select the map area to download -- and there is no search function. i have to push a rectangle round the display. hoping to find recognisable points.
i can see reading, we are near reading. okay.
we will drive to a small village near wells. my geography is not that good, i cant find wells.
eventually i select an area perhaps ten times what i need. i suspect that wells is inside that area. i dont know if our cottage is in the download area.
i guess well find out. when we have no wifi... are terribly lost... and try to do a proper search.
whats wrong with this:
search,
get directions,
download the *displayed* map area. which definitely inludes all of the relevant area.
google maps download. software developed and never tested in a real situation :-(
