Pros and cons of Rand McNally Road Atlas app for iPhone and iPad

Rand McNally Road Atlas app good for

The major complaints have been the relatively long download, but they are giving us their entire Atlas so we dont have to be on line; great advantage (I do have an excellent internet connection). And, the fact that they are the actual paper maps digitized and not some new fancy app. Again, I find this to be a great advantage, I can zoom in and everything gets bigger no frustration trying to read a highway number that stays the same size no matter how much I zoom. Also, they are completely up to date. All in all, works great for me.
If you like the paper versions of this atlas, then you will like this app. My only complaint is that it doesnt seem to have the index in the back so that one can look up populations and locations of towns. I would like to see this added to the next edition.
Just like store bought map. Thats what I use with apple map app. I would happily have paid for it just because of the railroad maps
As a lover of paper maps, I like this app. Its missing a couple of key features: - GPS location - Search or index function - It would be nice if you could zoom in a little closer If you love browsing paper maps, do get this atlas.
The maps are in high definition an clear. I just want to highlight that a part was missing in the east part of Pensylvania, i had reported this and it has been corrected very quickly. Thank you.
If you just want to go from A to B you can use Google Maps (or any other map service) without problems. But if youre on an excursion or on a trip or a tour nothing compares to this atlas. I started using the Rand McNally Atlas in 1997 for several tours (coast to coast, Rocky Mountains, East coast...) and it always served me well. And now Im planning the next trip to the US (Im from Germany) and the 2015 version still is unbeatable - even as an app.

Some bad moments

My hope was that I could look at a map of the US and zoom in to an area. I really would like to plan some more interstate trips. For example, to look at North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia and Virginia...get a high level idea and then zoom in for specifics. That cannot be done with this app. This app essentially takes the paper books that we all remember and puts them online in the same format...complete with overlays of particular cities or areas that cover up the neighboring states. Very frustrating. Its 2016, I expect so much better.
Not really functional. Try zooming in and quality is poor. PLEASE UPADTE!
If you want an ebook version, this is it. If you want routes, town roads, and everything GoogleMaps or AutoMap has, then forget it! Save your money, buy an interactive atlas or map, dont waste the download time or your money on this picture album of the book.
Zooming in to see detail is useless. Zoom doesnt go far enough and doesnt give any more detail. I would ask for my money back. Ive tried the app on both iPhone and iPad. Sorry I bought the app. Beware of 2 star apps with a lot of 1 star ratings. Live and Learn (again).
Does not work on my iPad 2, will not download. Have been trying for over a year. How do I get my money back?
I paid 9.99 for this app thinking it would be the same as their wed site, enter in addresses to destination and stops in between. The only thing you can do is view each state map and on left hand side you can view what each line means on the map. You cant search, you cant map out where you want to go....VERY DISAPPOINTED TO SAY THE LEAST. waste of money.....
