Thread: iHikeGPS-NZ vs. Topo GPS apps

I've been testing both of these apps on iPhone 7 for a while in a variety of conditions including thick bush. They are both spot on in terms of GPS location and mapping, but the interface on iHikeGPS-NZ is much better. Also, the way maps are downloaded on Topo GPS is haphazard and if you try to view a map that isn't downloaded, it gets buggy. Map downloads are more straightforward on iHikeGPS-NZ. The only way Topo GPS beats iHikeGPS-NZ is that you can flick through the downloaded map tiles quickly. On iHikeGPS-NZ, there is a lag while the tiles open up, but this isn't a significant problem. Thought someone might find this useful.
