Offline maps

Modified on Tue, 27 Feb at 11:41 AM

If you're going where the Internet is slow, mobile data is expensive, or you can't get online, you can save the area with Flow's Offline map to your phone or tablet and use the map when you are offline. With Flow 2.8.0 (and newer versions) you can not only capture data offline, but also view the location of your data points offline using our newest feature, Offline maps.


Note: Capturing and viewing geographical shapes with Offline maps is not supported yet. We will be adding it to the next Flow app release.


Creating an offline map 

  1. Make sure you are connected to the internet. 
  2. Go to the Main menu and select Offline maps. You can create your first offline map from the Maps tab too.
  3. Click on the icon in the right bottom corner of your screen. 
  4. Zoom in to the area you want to download. 
  5. Give the map a name. 
  6. Download map.


The offline map will show in the list of Offline maps. Here you will see all your created offline maps and their size. You can preview, rename or delete a map to save space on your device.
