Do you feel online Google Maps is too slow showing you the map? Do you want an easy way to mark and remember where you are? Do you need a list of streets where you are? You don’t want to carry around a big unwieldy paper map? Tired of having the paper map blown to pieces by the wind every time you try to figure out where you are and where you need to go?
The mobile streetmaps are for you! All the map data is loaded on your iPhone or iPad before you leave your home, so can you be on the streets, offline, and still know everything about the area you are in, and locate yourself or any street in the city. You don’t need any network connection at all once the application is installed on your iPhone or iPad – no WiFi, no 3G, no GPRS!
This is a complete street level map for your iPhone or iPad. The entire map is stored on your device, so it works where you have no access to the Internet - it works where Google Maps is inaccessible. This prevents expensive data roaming charges by loading all the map data to your device before you leave home. You can turn off all network functions and still be able to find your way around. Lets you find all streets, and many useful locations such as ATMs, parkings, museums, and many others. Remembers where youve been so you can find that parking spot where you left your rental car, or that great restaurant. Allows you to mark interesting locations to visit in advance. To make sure your phone doesnt use any expensive data on your trip, go to Settings, then General, tap on Network, and slide the Data Roaming to "off".

Latest reviews of Port-au-Prince Haiti Street Map. app for iPhone and iPad
I have been working in Haiti for the past 10 months and these maps are an incredible asset. Anyone who has been in Haiti knows how difficult it is to navigate the backroads and shortcuts...this program has most of those roads shown in a very nice display. Easy to use too! Thanks for making it free! This app is AWESOME!
When is the next update. I really enjoy using this app and it is a necessity to navigate the maze that is Port-au-Prince, Haiti. With a 3G connection it is even awesome. I would welcome an expanded version to include a larger geography. Also some of the secondary and tertiary road that were left unidentified should be named. Great job and Im looking forward to that update. At $.99 an upgrade like that would be a steal.
Since the latest update the app doesnt work anymore. It used to be pretty useful to get directions that arent on google maps. But now its useless.
I noticed the other review on here saying an iOS update … not sure which one … broke the app. I just updated to iOS 7 and decided to try to bring this app back to life. If you entirely delete it from your phone and then reload it through iTunes, it goes through a startup procedure where it downloads the base map again. Then it works. I couldnt force a new download of the map any other way, but this does indeed make this useful little tool useful again.
