This is, I guess, only the free version - maybe there's a parallel

Hi Andy,
No there isn't - I'm a Premium subscriber.
The "Standard" base map is rubbish as a map in its own right. For
example it has contour lines, but no height indications on them, or even
which direction is uphill. What's the use of that? It is used as a base
map for other coloured overlays in addition to the Street map, such as
the National Park Paths, Cycle Map, Greenspace maps. None of which work
very well.
On mobile devices there is also a low-brightness Night map which is useful.
However, the Aerial, 25K and 50K maps are fine -- and the 3D stuff and
fly-over functions are great.
The main reason for subscribing however, is the ability to view a large
database of routes, create your own custom routes to add to it (or not),
and have an easy URL of your route which you can send to friends.
cheers,
Martin.
