Bring back Google maps or at least give us the option to switch it on. HERE map sometimes don't even load for me and I end up flying without a map.

Since I don't know much, okay anything, about Here Maps, I voted for Google Maps.

After a quick search of my area, I see Here Maps are outdated.

Of course Google Maps.
But, given the buggy unstable software and poor documentation, one might expect DJI to cheap-out in this arena as well.

I was so optimistic about DJI’S future a few years ago but not anymore, although I like their hardware the rest has turned to rubbish. I was smart enough to stop updating and have an older version of the go app so my equipment is still functional but I will not be making future purchases. I’m hoping in the next few years we will see other companies offering similar equipment without all the restrictions...

Same for me... I download my maps for offline use in my iPad (wifi) using an external GPS (saving battery avoiding 4g use), the maps didn't show in the app... solution, tether my 4G connection from my iphone

Does anyone know if there's a way to load your own maps? Like for instance, if I wanted to load aeronautical charts or my own geotiff or MrSID files? I download my own DigitalGlobe imagery all the time for use with geospatial software. In any case, it would be nice if we had at a minimum the option to access and download maps like Garmin for offline use. And yes, I know about map caching, but that is not reliable when you're off the grid and need some map data, hence why I download my own imagery.

I started flying a few months ago before DJI Go 4 App was using Google Maps. There's nothing I've noticed about the current offering that would suggest the need to make a change. What does everybody think, was Google Maps more accurate?

It totally depends on your location.  More congested areas are updated more often than others.  When I started, Google maps were perfect for my area.  Then Here Maps started up and they were.  Blurry.  Then they changed to someone else.
