• Area must not be too large.
• The saved areas in offline Google Maps are automatically cleared after 30 days.
• Location services will be very slow due to no data connection while using offline Google Map.
• Since you don’t have a data connection, you won’t be able to perform step-by-step navigation in offline Google Map.
• If you prefer downloading the maps in bulk for offline navigation, I will suggest you to try Nokia Here maps Or whole Google map offline which is about 1.7GB
