The zoom levels of the in-app purchase guides only zoom to 5km. Whereas the Africa Map zooms all the way!
The in-app purchases consist of:
- Guides: For example: Namibia, Botswana etc. These are guides containing information about places. The map zoom level of these guides only go up to 5km.
- We only have a certain zoom level on this app for the Guides (which is very good) and the reason for this is due to the fact that the App can only carry a certain amount of information. If we had to increase the zoom level it would have made the App too heavy to carry all the information.
- At this point, we would double the size of the download file if we include another zoom level.
- Africa Map: this is a high zoom level map – zooming down to the lowest level, giving the user good map detail. This map includes the entire Africa.
The app is however fully functional as an electronic guide as was its intention.
Note: if you purchase 3 guides in the in-app purchases – you will receive the Africa Map for free.
