Android GPS hiking apps?

I have to put in a plug for CalTopo, which I find is the most useful tool in route planning for SOTA and other backcountry adventures (but it is NA-centric). I view the mobile app as an extension/companion to the web interface where you will do most of your planning. You will need a $20/year subscription for the ability to download layers to your mobile device, but you can give it a test drive with a free account which will give you access to most of it’s great features. You might want to join us on Wednesday evening (Feb 15th) for my final CalTopo class where we will be looking at the use of the mobile app.
