Depending on map size and layer, downloaded maps can take up a lot of free space on your phone. As a general rule of thumb, the larger the saved map area, the more storage it will take up. We suggest periodically deleting saved map files that you are not frequently using.
You can free up storage in the AllTrails app by deleting maps from your AllTrails account. There are a few ways to do so.

You can delete a specific map by following these steps:
Via iPhone app:
