Android custom maps
Any map prepared with MapTiler can be loaded and used offline (without Internet connection) on iPad or iPhone. You will see your actual GPS position on the top of such map. All you need is MapTiler, Google Drive account and app GeoEditor for MapTiler. You can download it from from Google Play:
On your computer, turn on the MapTiler and choose Standard tiles. For devices with Retina Display, we strongly recommend to check the HiDPI / Retina tiles option (available in MapTiler Plus / Pro)
Drag and drop the image inside and confirm suggested coordinate system. If the image contains geographical location, it is picked up automatically. Otherwise you can assign location visually, define the bounding box or load it from external file. Georeferencing tutorial shows the Assign location visually option.
On the format chooser screen choose Mobile device option. This will process your image for mobile devices.
Wait until your map is processed.
