Maps.me Download Instructions

The following pages will guide you on completing these activities. A & B must be done before you depart for Ensenada:

  1. Acquiring Maps.me
    The screenshots illustrate doing so on an iPhone. If you have an iPad the steps will be identical, and if you have an Android they may vary slightly.

  2. Adding the PC19 bookmarks
    All of the ministry sites, along with some valuable community resources (food, hospitals, tire repair, etc.) will be available to you.

  3. Navigating from current location
    While in Ensenada—without data turned on, but relying on your device’s built-in GPS—you will be able to choose any ministry site or community resource and have the system route you there, with voice prompts. Assign a navigator in your car for this; the driver must not be responsible for navigation. Note that the routing system is imperfect due to the absence of road names in Ensenada and other anomalies. You may need to turn to the paper and video version of your ministry site routes instead.

  4. Navigating from Point A to Point B without Internet access (for example, RAV)

  5. Text someone your current location without internet access (ie, you’re lost and need help)
    You may be charged for the text, depending on your cell phone carrier plan.
