There I use the OS website for browsing and printing OS maps. Planning at home is all web-based and much easier on a full-sized screen than a phone. I find it more reliable & more useful than the OS app and the OSM-based layers are handy - there's often information there that doesn't exist on an OS map. I've ditched the OS app off my phone and use Viewranger instead. The spreadsheet records if I've loaded the route up onto OS Maps, if I recorded it on Strava, did I post about it on FB/Instagram, have I uploaded the photos from it to my Flickr account amongst other things.ġ. All of these walks and runs are on OS Maps too.
I'm a bit OCD and I keep a record of all my walks and runs on a spreadsheet, going back to 2004 when I first had a digital camera and could work out from all the photos the exact route I'd taken. Once I've completed a walk or run I export the GPX file out of Strava, load it into the OS Maps website and then delete the corresponding planned walk or run.ģ. It seems to be a bit better recently - I've had to start using it again because my Viewranger subscription to OS Explorer Maps has run out and can't be renewed now Viewranger has been taken over by Outdooractive.Ģ.

The OS Maps app went through a period a while ago where it would just show a blank screen if it had no data connection, even when I'd downloaded a map to my phone using the code you get when you buy a map. Occasionally I'll plan out a walk or run on the app on my phone, but prefer to do it on the computer where you can see a bigger area.I tend to use the Viewranger app when actually out on walks and runs because it seems to be more stable. I use the OS Maps website at home to plan out all my walks and runs.
