Tap ‘Done’ and select the newly downloaded map in the map list.

If you don’t see the map, use the button with the map name (1) to focus on the map region on the main map.
The main map will show the downloaded map region (1) and you can use zoom buttons (2) or fingers to zoom into it.
If you don’t see the zoom buttons (2), tap on the map and they will appear briefly.
For regions that are not downloaded, the map shows gray squares.
This should be it! If the map is not following your location after all that, don’t forget to use the ‘RE-CENTER’ button (1), so map follows your location again.
