Using my iPhone App in Indonesia - Quick Question

[dijitaldharma]

So, I've been reading the forums about using the app sans data in other countries and I JUST want to be sure that I have the gist of what to do:

 

1. Save the caches I want to do to my offline list.

2. Turn off data on my phone

3. Cache away.

 

Is there any more information I need to know? I am a premium member, and I noticed that there was a perk of using google maps in international areas with premium. Does this come into play with offline use? Just wondering.

 

Thanks for any tips you can provide!

 

I leave tomorrow

Make sure you have Cellular Data, Roaming, 3G/4G/LTE all off. Some teeny bits of data may still push through, this happened to me. But only kb's worth and my phone company reversed the charges after I explained to them I had all 3 options off the whole time.

 

It's much trickier to cache offline so be prepared for that. The compass isn't a reliable and can be a bit wacky. You definitely need some patience with offline caching .

 

When you save them offline it doesn't save all photos, only like two.

 

You sound like you're good to go though!

 

Have fun!!

Also remember you don't have WAAS there so the error radius will be much higher.
