The MapFinder app will remain for customers to use and access their purchased map tiles but unfortunately will no longer be updated with new features and content. For the latest and most up to date app from Ordnance survey search for ‘ OS Maps ’. The OS Maps app also allows customers to download a digital version of their paper map, and view and subscribe to see all of the GB Ordnance Survey maps.
OS Maps won the Digital Product of the year 2017 by the Outdoor Industry Association.
Please note: OS Maps and The MapFinder are not compatible and therefore purchases cannot be transferred between the apps.
OS MapFinder is a large download. With it, you can search our 1:250 000 scale road map by place name, postcode or address. You won’t even need an internet connection to search as it also works offline. Then, via the in-app options, you can buy the OS Landranger (1:50 000) and OS Explorer (1:25 000) close-up maps of the areas you’d like to focus on – and after purchase, those maps will always be available on your device too.
