Are you wondering how to put Memory Map mapping on your Android phone? It might seem like a brain teaser at first, but it is actually quite straightforward. In this article, we will guide you through the process so that you can easily load Memory Map onto your Android device.
To begin, you will need to load the software onto your PC. Once you have done that, a little shortcut will appear on your screen. Next, go to the Play Store and download the Memory Map app onto your Android phone. It is important to note that you can find detailed instructions on the Memory Map website by searching “transferring mapping to Android.”
Now that you have the necessary software and app, let’s move on to the step-by-step process:
Step 1: Open the Memory Map Software on Your PC First, open the Memory Map software on your PC and connect your Android device. Once you have connected the device, open the map. Ignore any boxes that appear for now and simply minimize them. We will come back to them later.
Step 2: Create a Folder on Your Desktop To proceed, create a folder on your desktop and rename it as “Memory/Map Mobile Maps.” Make sure to use capital letters and the forward slash. If you have downloaded the instruction sheet, you can follow along more easily.
Step 3: Define the Area You Want to Travel If you only want to download a specific portion of the map, you need to define the area you want to travel. To do this, click on the “Route” option at the top of the screen. Then, click on a point on the map to create a waypoint. Continue clicking to create the outline of the area you want to download. Once you have created a closed shape, you will have a blue line enclosing the portion of the map you want.
Step 4: Save the Enclosed Area to Your Mobile Device Now, right-click on any part of the enclosed area and go to “Operations.” From there, select “Enclosed Area” and click on “Send to Mobile Device.” A box will appear. In Windows, you might not see the option to save to a storage card. Instead, use the box to scroll to the folder where you want to save the information. Once you have selected the folder, click “OK.” The software will save four files to that folder.
Step 5: Copy the Files to Your Android Device Open the folder where you saved the files on your desktop. You will find four files there, but you only need two of them. Copy both of these files to your clipboard. Now, connect your Android device to your PC and open the internal memory of the phone. Look for a folder called “Download” and open it. Within that folder, you should find another folder called “Memory Map.” Open it and paste the two files from your clipboard into this folder.
Step 6: Load the Maps onto Your Android Device Disconnect your smartphone from your PC and open the Memory Map software. Click on “Menu” and then select “Bitmaps.” Look for the folder named “Great Britain 14” and click on it. The maps will open up on your phone. Sometimes it might default to a road map, but you can manually switch to the desired map.
That’s it! You have successfully loaded Memory Map onto your Android device. Now, when you click on the GPS icon in the menu, you will see your current location on the map.
In conclusion, transferring Memory Map mapping to your Android phone is not as complicated as it might initially seem. By following these step-by-step instructions, you can easily load the maps onto your device and navigate with ease. Enjoy exploring new places with Memory Map on your Android phone!
