"...[for] basic information, the app more than delivers." - CNET Senior Editor Kent German, 6/7/2009

Welcome to Gate Maps!

Gate Maps was designed with the expectation that you'll usually refer to a terminal map while in-flight or in areas with limited connectivity, and therefore works in Airplane mode (no network connection needed for terminal info), on either an iPhone or iPod Touch. Also, given many airport sites use Flash for their maps, accessing such content from your iPhone/iPod Touch is currently not possible. PDF is another popular format, but the download time negates a quick lookup when you're rushing to make that connection!

If you need the added convenience of displaying your arrival and connecting gates on the maps and saving a shorter list of airports you'll be visiting in the near future, consider upgrading to My Gate Maps.

Its primary purpose is to make it more convenient and less stressful to get your bearings in case of a late gate change. As noted earlier, if you're not in as much of a hurry, the airport's dining guide on their website is included as a link.

Gate Maps covers most of the major US airports and an ever increasing list of international ones, for a current total of 38 airports. Please refer to the list below to see if you're covered.

New maps and features are added frequently, driven by your popular requests on the site's project page, and are free updates to the full version.

To use:
After launching, tap the row corresponding to the city of your airport. The first screen you see is the scrollable airport overview map. *Single* tapping one of the terminal areas brings up the more detailed, scrollable view of that area, enabling you to view the layout of the gates. Tap, hold, and swipe-right on a detail map to return to the overview.

Pinch & Zoom gestures are also supported.

Once in the overview or detail view, note the "website" button in the upper right-hand corner. Pressing it will exit Gate Maps and launch Safari to the selected airport's dining webpage. Care has been taken to avoid Flash-driven pages and where airports provide terminal-specific pages, a link has been included to take you directly to that terminal's dining areas.

Note that Gate Maps works in either portrait or landscape mode. Landscape mode hides the status bar to provide more space for the map.

We hope you enjoy it. Safe and happy travels!
