ForeverMap: app gets you there from here

APP REVIEW

ForeverMap gets you there from here

ForeverMap distinguishes itself from other mapping apps by letting users navigate while offline. A U.S. version of Skobbler, the popular map app in Britain, it uses information from OpenStreetMap, a collaborative mapping project, to bring a free, editable map of the world.

The app is perfect for mobile users who don’t want to pay for a data plan or roaming charges. Download the maps once, and ForeverMap stores the data you need to navigate. The app also has optional layers showing sites for entertainment, transport, shopping and more. For Wikipedia addicts, the app gives you one-tap access to articles about the landmarks around you from the site.

ForeverMap is available for 99 cents for the iPhone, iPod touch and iPad.
