Paxos offline map

About Paxos offline map Android App

Early-stage offline map of the Greek island of Paxos for backpackers and brave visitors. The other islands in the Paxi/Paxoi archipelago such as Antipaxos are also included. Download before you go and avoid expensive roaming charges. The map runs completely on your device; display, routing, search, bookmark, everything. It does not use your data connection at all. Switch your phone function off if you want to.


No ads. All features fully functional on installation, you do not need to buy add-ons or do extra downloads.

IMPORTANT NOTE: OpenStreetMap, http://www.openstreetmap.org, does not yet have full coverage of Paxos, so this map may not be for you. The main island road, villages, place names are there. BUT: many smaller roads/tracks are missing, no ferry terminal location, there are very few street names, and there are not many general amenities such as hotels to put in our gazetteer. Caveat emptor! You can help improve it by becoming an OpenStreetMap contributor. We publish free app updates every few months with new information. If you want one faster, just email our developer email address and we will do it as soon as we can.

OK, back to what is good about this app.

Is it all in Greek? We have made the map in Greek and "English". Bilingual information from the original map data is used where available and, in a few cases, we have filled in with our automatic transliteration technology. Relax and enjoy!

You can:

* find out where you are, if you have GPS.

* show a route between any place for motor vehicle, foot or bicycle; even without a GPS device.

* display simple turn-by-turn navigation [*].

* search for places

* display gazetteer lists of commonly needed places like hotels, eating places, shops, banks, things to see and do, golf courses, medical facilities. Show how to get there from your current location.

* bookmark places like your hotel for easy return navigation.

* * Navigation will show you an indicative route and can be configured for car, bicycle or foot. The developers provide it without any guarantee that it is always correct. For example, OpenStreetMap data does not always have turn restrictions - places where it is illegal to turn. Use with care and above all look out for and obey road signs.


We hope it does not happen to you but: Like most small developers, we cannot test a wide variety of phones and tablets. If you have trouble running the application, do email us and we will try to help and/or refund you.
