World Map Pro Edition

I used to use the National Geographic map App. This one is more detailed. I like it. No sure it is worth $2 though. The search function needs to improve; for example you press Kyev, like in the map, but it does not show up. You need to guess to type Kyiv. Also when you type the name of the city or country other countries show up in the suggestion box (alphabetically).

We use the maps on these two apps - US and world often for general reference. When our children are studying ancient cultures we can pull up these maps for a quick look at the location in modern terms. There is not a lot of detail, but enough that this is great for history and social studies classes in grade school and high school.

I like it to see the countries that are unknown to me. It is fast and easy to locate it. It gives a general view of countries and major cities around the world. If you are looking for an specific and unknown little place you better google it.

Every time some strange place comes up on the news I can always find out where it happened in seconds. Just have to go to a dictionary to learn how to pronounce these places.

Love this app for ease of access. Doing a crossword puzzle, curious about a location, trying to improve your knowledge of places, planning a trip? This map is the very best out there.
