Add notes to locations. I would buy this if I could add a small amount of notes to each location. Thanks

There is description field in bookmark details. Is it too short for your notes?

Possible reason is that you're looking at wrong place or at the different zoom level. Try to enable online map. put a bookmark at the place which you're downloaded in your offline map. Then switch back to your offline map and look around this bookmark at different zoom levels. You definitely should see your tiles, downloaded for offline browsing. If it still won't work for you write us at info@galileo-app.com I'll do my best to help you.

Merge already downloaded maps together

It would be a good idea to be able to merge the files I already downloaded so I do not have to switch to a different map if I go to another city.
Response from the site administrator
Yulia, 01.03.2012
Hi, thanks for your idea and there is one suggestion for it: in "Mobile Atlas Creator" program you can add more than one selection while creating the offline map.
For example: select your first city area on map and click "Add Selection",
after that select your second city (or any other area) and press "Add Selection" again.
As result offline map will be created containing both selections. So you don't have to switch between offline maps.

Hi, thank you for using the Galileo Offline Maps!
Yes, there have been a few changes in the user interface since the version 2.1.
First tap on the left down "Locate Me" button - initiates the tracking mode, next tap on this button switches to the 'compass' mode.
To turn off the tracking or compass mode - simply touch and move the map.

Reduce power consumption

I am using this app offline with GPS. My iPhone drops 1% power every 3 minutes or so. iOS version is 5.1.1. I can't use it for navigation for a whole day. It requires too much power.
Response from the site administrator
Yulia, 30.05.2012
Hi and thank you for your request. Higher accuracy in location data requires higher power consumption. You can try to prolong the battery life by enabling the distance and accuracy filter in Settings > GPS Filtering.

Also you can turn off the Location Services for Galileo app at Settings > Location Services - you can still browse the maps the map, but your current location will not be available.

create my own custom online map sources.

It would be nice to use my own custom online map sources. I've rendered some offline maps but they eat several Gbs as sqlite and it would be great to use them only when needed.

Since the v2.4 you can add your custom online map source as XML file. How to add it - please read here:

Go to the iPhone system Settings app, tap on General, then tap on Restrictions. Make sure the "In-App Purchases" option is set to ON. Once you've set that correctly you should be able to see in-app purchases.

In case, you want to restore your purchases you could use restore purchases button in Features view. It looks like Refresh button and located in top right corner.

Tell me if it won't work for you.

There is 2 possible reasons.
1. Apple serves is under maintenance. In-app purchases should appear shortly.
2. Your iOS device not connected to the internet.
Check both of them. Hope it helps.
