Recently, a friend of mine showed me the way that Gaia GPS, the app she uses, deals with 3D allowing to navigate any map, even satellite maps, as a true and useful flight experience, giving a feeling of the terrain that is not possible with any other map view, specially in the mountains.

I'd like you to have a look at this app to see what I mean. I'm pretty sure that adding this feature to Orux will make our preferred app even better.

Hello, I know Gaia GPS, use the same 3D viewer as Oruxmaps GP with the featured maps subscription
It's the mapbox viewer.
If I'm not mistaken, the experience you mention is already available on Oruxmaps GP, with a cheaper price than on Gaia GPS.
I'll show you what I mean

And just like Gaia offers, it's possible to make map overlays, but with a transparency control between each layer.
