You bet! We are giving away three free offline LoMaps to all new Locus Map users. The choice of map is up to you, the whole world is available.
New Locus Map users automatically get a welcome gift of three free offline LoMaps to download. However, many of them don’t know what these maps are, where to find them, or how to download them. So here’s how it works:
What are LoMaps?
LoMaps are world hiking and biking maps based on OpenStreetMap data.
- Online LoMap is the default map of the application and is always available for free in summer and winter mode.
- Offline LoMap, which can be used even without an internet connection, is available in map packages that cover individual countries and regions and can be downloaded from the Locus Store. The packages are smaller in size than the raster maps downloaded from the online mode and can be switched to different themes: Hiking, Biking, Skiing, City, and Road. Each theme is based on the same map data but displays different layers and symbols according to the user’s needs.
Part of the map package is a database of LoPoints (points of interest that can be displayed not only on top of the LoMaps but also on top of all other maps in the area). The points can be searched, sorted, and filtered in the database (Menu > All Functions > LoPoints). Read more about LoMaps in the Locus Knowledge Base >>
Where can I get LoMaps?
It’s the same as all the other maps provided by the Locus Map application – they’re available in the Locus Store. The Locus Store can be accessed by tapping Menu > Locus Store (you must be online), then selecting Maps > Product Lines. The LoMaps are the first to appear and offer a wide range of map packs. When selecting a map, it’s possible to view the map packs on a preview map – this makes it easy to see which areas are covered by which map.
How do I know that the map is free?
The blue DOWNLOAD button contains an icon of a map pack. Tapping it will bring up a dialog confirming that the map is really free and showing the number of gifts remaining.
Each map packet can be downloaded repeatedly in the version available at the moment of the first download. Updates of LoMaps are charged for a symbolic fee.
How can I download LoMaps to my mobile phone or tablet?
Tap on the blue DOWNLOAD button and then confirm the next dialog.
The map will start downloading. Meanwhile, you can continue to work with Locus Map, the download status will be displayed in your system tray. The downloaded map will appear in the Offline tab of your Map Manager.
What should I do to get all LoMaps for free?
Subscribe or purchase the Premium Gold plan. With it, you can download as many offline LoMaps as you want, including all updates.
