- Tap "Search".
- Scroll down in the card that pops up below the Search bar.
- Tap the "Make this map area available offline" link.
I've just put my phone in Airplane mode and confirmed that the Paris, London, and Cambridge areas I'd cached were still available.
How do you find the cached maps? Do you just zoom out, scroll to the area and zoom back in?
Is there a limit to how much you can cache? Will the caches expire at some point?
BTW, you can also save a map by adjusting the displayed area, then searching for: ok maps
