-Please note, that there is a limit by Google of 1000 static maps per 24h per user(IP). Having a rather huge list of stored caches or even only some caches with many waypoints, you may easily reach this limit (as 5 images cache and each cache waypoint are loaded). In this case some static maps might be missing.

 With some effort you can also [[https://github.com/cgeo/cgeo/wiki/How-to-create-your-own-offline-maps|manually create]] your own openstreetmap based map.
+Once you downloaded an offline map file, you have to store it to the directory on your device as defined in the [[.mainmenu:settings#map|settings]]. If the file is a valid mapsforge offline map, it will afterwards be shown in the  [[ .mainmenu:livemap#top_bar_menu|map source selection]] on the live map or you can preselect the map file to be used in the [[.mainmenu:settings#map|settings]].
