what downloaded maps are useful without routes
well, first for point to point navigation without using an internet connection.
Then, I never prepare routes for when I am travelling for work, mostly using airplanes. It is still very handy when arriving in a city where i have never been to have a map and be able to find hotel, meeting building... or to check on the route the taxi driver is taking.
In London, from St Pancras station to my meeting room or back, a trip without the driver seeing that I was following the road on a phone was costing around 15 pounds, with phone only around 9 pounds. That is 12 pounds difference a day.
Multiply that with a monthly visit and my lifetime MRA Nav subscription is paid back within a year.
