FYI, if you are using an android, you can try google maps go which is designed to run on devices with limited memory [0].

Thanks, I remember seeing this before but assumed it was a junk copy-cat app.

The list of features it doesn't support is exactly the same list of things I don't care about. Nice! I just installed, and it seems to be a minimal app using a chrome wrapper. So it's basically a webpage... I will have to see how its navigation works.

Offline maps has always been a sticking point for me, I consider offline maps to be pretty core functionality for any map app.
