just been given a Nokia Lumia 930 Windows phone at work and noticed that the maps when using endomondo or Google maps don't show footpaths. Now I know my old blackberry was crap, but it did show footpaths so was wondering if anyone knows of any decent mapping software that can be used. The Windows Store is pretty sparse....

Just a guess but ms bing maps on a pc have OS maps, so the app on windows phone may also.

thanks Jon, doesn't look like the first one is still available, but the second is worth a look. Concerned about needing to download the maps live though, as I cant even pick up the cricket scores in the middle of town, let alone middle of lake district....

Yeah, no good for the map when there's no 3G signal. However, it doesn't need a data signal to use the phone GPS position and will return an OS grid ref (to 10 digits). Half of an expensive GPS device for 79p!
