Viewing the Map

The Map Cache
Working with Maps
The Meili app automatically caches the map tiles you have viewed so a lot of the time you will not notice tiles being downloaded. The cache lasts for as long as you have the Meili app installed so offline cached map tiles will often be available to help when your phone is out of signal.
If you want to clear the cache for any reason, go to the main menu then choose 'My Downloads' and click 'Clear Cache' at the to right of the screen.
Downloading Maps
Working with Maps
If you know you will be offline in a certain area, you can download a section of the map manually. To do this scroll and zoom the map to the size and location you want to download and choose 'Save This Area' You will be taken to a screen like this telling you how big the map download will be. Keep in mind this needs to fit in your phones memory and if you can use Wifi to avoid using your mobile data.
