How do I use a downloaded map...

I hope someone can help!

I've just downloaded the England Map off Smart2go and it told me it had downloaded successfully. When I go on maps I get a GPS fix no problem. When I try to plan a route however, it won't accept the address unless i'm connected to the internet. i.e. if I plan a route from my GPS position then use a valid postcode such as WA23 8TF as the destination, it only recognises WA23 8for some reason (not the full postcode), and therefore won't plan the route. Surely if I have downloaded the England map I wouldn't need to connect to the internet to get the full postcode??? Also how do you know the map you're using is the one that was downloaded? It looks exactly the same on the application as it did before!

I gotta be honest I'm very confused as what to do and how! :frown:

It will need a connection to find the address, when you download a map you get the map but not address information for searching requests.
