Absurd map downloading issue
So I've been using Gaea extensively for many years, and have racked up a looong list of downloaded maps, using assorted layer combos, and for some reason Gaia also duplicates map downloads so I will make one map download and it will appear in the Gaea App as like 20 separate downloaded maps, which is completely stupid and annoying. The offline navigation has been not working at all lately, so I figure that deleting all the map tiles might fix that, since offline navigation is kinda the whole point of me paying 60 bucks a year for this app. So anyway, I have hundreds of these downloaded map things on my Gaea App, and I want to delete them all. Now any remotely competent app would allow you to quickly and easily mass delete all map download tiles, but of course Gaia is not that app. Instead it forces me to one by one click on each map tile, while the entire app is lagging to the point of being unusable, on my fairly new and powerful Pixel 6 mind you, not some old weak phone. All I want is to be able to do is get rid of all these annoying, nonfunctional downloaded maps and start again, and Gaea wont even let me do that. Also, when I do try to delete even one map tile, nothing happens at all, nothing. Im completely fed up with this app, its been slowly getting worse and worse over the years and at this point getting a white hot rod shoved up my ass feels preferable to trying to do ANYTHING related to the offline maps in this app. What an absolute shame it is to sell this app for $60 a year, in fact with this experience yall should be paying me 60 bucks a year to help you find bugs in your “app”, because clearly yall are lacking in the ability to find or fix the most base, important parts of the app, like downloaded maps. Can some admin here just please go on my account and mass delete all of the downloaded map tiles please? I have years of waypoints, tracks, other things I care about being preserved, but the downloaded maps feature makes me want to pull my hair out with a doorknob. Its seriously time for me to move to CalTopo if someone cannot help me with this. I should have done that in the first place
