Some things are better than Neotreks...some are not
Ive used Neotreks for awhile. Today I was prompted to change to this new one. This happened a few years ago when I went to NeoTreks. The Good.
- I think the map layers are nice.
- I like being able to choose my map type.
- The GPS path seems more accurate.
- the maps seem to have lots of established trails on them that Neotreks did not.
The Bad
- Neotreks had detailed specs showing altitude speed and lots of other statistics. I dont see that anymore and its disappointing.
The Ugly
- with Neotreks I could turn the screen off and the GPS would still track me. When I would turn my screen back on I could see my route where I had been and where I was at that moment. Onxmaps does not do this so you have to either leave the screen on, or deal with large gaps in your route. No more bread crumbs or no more battery is a tough choice if you are somewhere unfamiliar. I think this is a major flaw and needs to be fixed.
