First OruxMaps + version, for iOS

[Max]

I have been looking for a good alternative to the old locus for android that will run on IOS and will allow decent offline maps like openandromaps. This does most things but what I noticed was that whilst it is happy with the latest v5.6 maps it doesn't like the latest version of elevate themes, you need to load the legacy version v5.2 (amongst other things the latest theme wouldn't show contours).
I'm still relatively new to OruxMaps so have many things to try on IOS and also try on android to compare.

Justo me he pasado a iPhone y pensaba que no estaría esta app en IOS pero gracias por conseguir ponerla. Entiendo que sea como si fuera nueva la aplicación, así que espero con ganas todas las mejoras en la app para que sea lo mas parecida a la versión de Android.

Muchas gracias.

Thank you for bringing Oruxmaps to iOS! 

I've been an occasional user on Android, although this is due mine being an old version that pre-dates the Play Store version.  This particular use case was on a device that lacks service, no SIM card and is 100% offline so getting to the Play Store is difficult. 

Oruxmaps being available on iOS solves occasional access to an app store.  However a robust mapping app that can handle GeoPDF, Mapsforge and Garmin IMG offline files is still important since the device is often used where cell data is unreliable.

That brings up a feature that I do not seem to find in the iOS version.

Offline maps do not seem to seamlessly and automatically load.  On the Android version as I travel or swipe across I am presented a list of maps available at a given location.  This is very handy and would make Oruxmaps much more useful on iOS.

I have no issue displaying any of the GeoPDF and Mapsforge V5 maps I've tried on iOS.  So it is a very promising option.  The issue is only that when I load an offline file that is the only map shown regardless if that is my current location or not.

Hello you can try the same as it is done on Android (I don't have ios) put your img map in the oruxmaps / mapfiles folder.
Go to the map list in the app, refresh the offline map list and check if it is
On Android all img are not supported, I don't know how it will go on ios.
Best regards

Hi!
This is a Oruxmaps Android user that now installed the App in iOS. I can no load the .img map. .mbtiles, .map, .pdf and .tif are only admited.
Is there a way to make this possible? Will there be a new version? Thanks in advance!
