Memory-Map 6 Cloud Sync

Memory-Map 6 Cloud Sync is tied to your Memory-Map Account and as such allows you to transfer overlay data (routes, tracks, and marks) between your compatible devices via the internet. 
In order to use the Cloud Sync feature you must be using Memory-Map 6.1.0 or later on your PC (you can check this within your current Memory-Map PC software application by selecting Web > Check For Updates), the Memory-Map for Mac application, and the latest Memory-Map app (You can check for this via the Google Play Store or App Store on your device).
There are levels of Memory-Map Cloud Sync. These are:

  • FREE - sync up to 2MB of data up to 10 times per calendar month. In the web portal, at the bottom of the page, you can see the size of your synced data and the number of times you have synced in the current calendar month.
  • SUBSCRIPTION - use the service without usage limits for an annual payment of $9.99.

Note that there is a difference in the way you sync the PC app and the other apps. With the PC, you have to explicitly upload or download selected items. With the Mac, iOS and Android items are uploaded and downloaded depending on what is new or what has been modified.
