| Re: Offline cache not available in Barcelona | treebles | 7/11/12 11:07 AM | Because offline mode is not available in Spain. This is the list of countries where offline mode is available for in the new integrated feature of Maps. http://support.google.com/gmm/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=2650347 You would need to downgrade to M |

I wish they would make this feature work globally already, it would be very useful for travelers - especially from the US, since our phones don't even work in Europe or most countries so |

| Re: Offline cache not available in Barcelona | Anton B. Quast | 10/6/12 2:51 PM | Try this little "hack": 1. zoom to Perpignan in France, close to the Spanish border 2. Open the square of the area to save as large as possible (max 85 MB) 3. Move the area under the square down to Barcelona 4. Save the map 5. Be happy and enjoy |

| Re: Offline cache not available in Barcelona | djwats | 4/17/13 7:59 AM | That's really not an answer as to "why" Spain is not available offline. Look at that list of countries. Why not Spain? This is very bad. |
