Hello.
It is often necessary to load (save) only the maximum zoom (for example: z19), and all previous zoom (for example: z1-z18) do not need to be loaded.
This option will save time for downloading, as well as save memory and traffic on the device.

Re: Select and save an area. Add option - Save maximum zoom only
Hi Lex,
There have been various discussion about this on this forum. To resume, there is no plan currently to add this ability in the built-in area downloader because:
- When you store an area, most of the space is used by the last zoom level only (around 70-80%), so it actually doesn't save a lot of space;
- When you want to navigate, it's almost impossible to do so if you only have the last zoom level, you cannot un-zoom and navigate fast around the map.
But if you absolutely want to do so, you can create your maps using MOBAC which has this ability.
Sorry about that.
