Download & Install HTC Locations Offline Maps

HTC has discontinued their service for their navigation app ‘HTC Locations’ in July 2013. Even though it may seem like an outdated app, it works great. This app was very handy because you could download a map of a particular country and use it offline. Furthermore, it doesn’t require much space on your phone. In this post, you will learn how to install HTC Locations offline maps on any Android device.

This app is great for… let’s say old devices who don’t support and don’t have memory to install the latest GPS apps. Unfortunately, this service is not available anymore. Since you can’t download the maps from the official HTC site, two developers found a way to make it work.
