anyone use gpx type maps on an android phone? ive tried various apps but cant get any to do what i want, which is- load a route and then let me follow it! i thought there would be a nice user friendly way of doing this by now.
Oruxmaps isn't half bad... Although takes some effort loading the maps in if you don't use a data plan.
Maverick?
can download via wireless at home free OS 1:50k & 1:25k map tiles for the area you need (by scrolling around)
Uploaded Gps trail needs to be in a trk format - but plenty of apps on net for that.
