Off Road Navigation Software: HEMA? VMS? ExplorOz?

Post by Beng »

Hi,

I was wondering if I could ask if anyone has any opinion and advise on off road navigation software?

I do not like to use the small 7 inch screen Off road navigation units that come with say the HEMA or VMS system and prefer to have it downloaded onto my Windows laptop.

Anyone know much about ExplorOz Traveller + EOTopo with the Premium Map download vs the HEMA and VMS? I can't seem to find HEMA or VMS on a Windows Microsoft download page but only ExplorOz package. Would any of you recommend ExplorOz? I know VMS has 3D and HEMA is very well accepted but can I download either onto my laptop (Windows 10) without using Google Play Store but through Microsoft Windows? If not is ExplorOz acceptable? Or would you recommend something else altogether?

Thanking you again,
Beng

I have the VMS, it's ok yet if rather spey more and get a head unit from VMS.

HEMA has a good reputation, try downloading on laptop and see what happens, Microsoft have an app store on PC it could be on the.
Thanks
Chris.

I ran the Hema Ap on an old 10" Android tablet.
Was extremely good, until updated versions of Ap stopped suitiing older units :(
