| The store area tool will download all the map data for the area and zoom levels you have chosen, and store it on the device. The downloaded data is added into the single storage of its map. Any data already stored won't be downloaded or stored twice. At any time, [[en:help:v2:maps:on-demand-check-coverage|you can check what is stored]] for a map, or delete its entire data storage. | The store area tool will download all the map data for the area and zoom levels you have chosen, and store it on the device.
