Now, assuming I have some cell coverage I would like to enhance my maps with Google offline maps for use in navigating since I will most likely be in areas with little or no cellular data.
Anyone have advice or have used google maps offline for this purpose?
I have a week before I fly to Medellin.
Thanks

That Google maps app is great. Even the Nav part is now good, better I think than my Garmin dedicated gps device. I download the maps off the app for offline use...the trouble is the offline map data expires in 30 days, then you have to re-download again and again. If there is a way to purchase the data to always have it available for the maps app..I would be interested in buying it.
