What is HomeMap ?
HomeMap is a navigation application that allows you to easily place annotations on a map, edit them, add a picture from your photo library or even from the built-in camera of your device.
You can add as many annotations as you want and even import contacts* from your phone !
The list in the back allows you to center rapidly on a particular annotation, change its informations or toggle its visibility.
Need driving route between two annotations ? Simply perform a long press on an element of the list, then drag onto the wanted destination and the Maps application opens with the wanted route !
Want to do the same on the map ? Drag from the bottom left anchor of an annotation upto the destination annotation and again, Maps application opens with the predefined route ! Getting driving directions between two points has never been so easy !
(*Note that only contacts with postal address can be imported)
