Maps on us

Maps On Us is a map application that both benefits and suffers from its simplicity. MapsOnUs doesn’t contain the extra features that can bog down and distract the user from plotting their course (or enrich the experience, depending on the user) and contains a very simple, easy to use interface. However, on the same note, MapsOnUs is fairly low in quality and the maps can tend to be a bit light and hard to read at times. They don’t contain nearly the specifics and intricacies of other services.

That is not to say Maps On Us does not have some useful features, which it does. For instance, Maps On Us allows its users to easily find places such as hotels, restaurants, gas stations, etc with a simple click of the button. This is particularly useful for people who are not familiar with where they are looking. Similarly, the yellow pages offered here can also contribute to that.

However, on the whole, Maps On Us is just a bit too basic and light and the lack of quality will dismay many users. But for users who are looking for a simple experience, Maps On Us still has plenty to offer.
