My iPhone 5 Experience pt4 – Memory Map

Memory Map iPhone Problems

This is an app I use a lot – Memory Map is an Ordnance Survey map. GPS navigation app which I use when I go walking. I bought the full version of the app, within hours of getting my iPhone 4, at the end of 2010, so I could use my extensive collection of OS maps on my phone – this is an essential item when I am walking and backpacking.

When I first started the app my loaded maps did not show, even though they were listed in iTunes File Sharing window. At first I was not too concerned, I logged into my Memory Map account to check the licenses, I entered my account details into the app, I tried restoring my in app purchases but none of these things worked. Next tried the help pages suggested by Memory Map but most of these gave this result Memory Map useless web pages

– it was not my connection but them pointing their users at dead web pages.

I did find some help pages on the American site but no help. The forums were also not available. I have sent an email, to their technical support but I have not had a reply yet.

As it was I solved the problem myself – I deleted the maps from iTunes File Sharing and simply reloaded them – then when I went to Memory Map on my iPhone the maps were again available to load. I was happy having got this app to work as I am off to Scotland next Friday for two weeks walking and all my proposed routes and maps are loaded into this app.
