This is an App which I have only used rarely whilst I was living in Phuket. The phone always gave me the choice to use a particular map and I think that I always chose 'Maps'.

Then on moving to Bangkok there were so many places that I wanted to visit and I found that you could make a list of all the places that you wanted to go - so you would not forget.

There was also the added bonus of using google on my blog by starring all the places and they were all there as well. I haven't started really using it yet - oh and it can tell you how far away places are from where you are and how to get there...
