Great for map geeks!

Being fascinated by old maps, this seems to be the only app I can find where you can a gps location in real time overlaid on a map that is over a hundred years old. For a free app this is great and I would love to see more developments on this neglected niche of historical maps. I find the historic maps do not zoom in enough though, and is hard to see detail on a phone screen. I would like to see some of the more detailed historic maps incorporated within in app with zoom and overlay feature. I wait in anticipation for this to appear! But this particular app, for a free download, is an excellent and fascinating tool for map geeks.

Good maps app.

Works well and I can see myself using in the future.

If the developer is reading this, I must bring your attention to an annoying issue. The select maps source menu cannot be read since both the background and the text is white.

I am using iPhone XR.

Please fix new bug

Text to select map source has become invisible after latest update - white on white background when using dark theme - almost unusable now. Great app otherwise. As I mainly switch to OpenStreetMap it is frustrating trying to choose from the invisible text options for the map source. Please also include an option for selected map source to remain as the default choice. Also the tile cache seems unreliable when offline. Many thanks for working on this super-useful app.
