Best off line Paris city map app ?

I'm off to Paris next week and I'm looking for an off line map that's going to help me navigate through the streets of Paris. Ideally I'm looking for an app that can be used in conjunction with the inbuilt GPS.

Has anybody used such an app in Paris ?

Bump for this old chestnut. I did a search and this was the closest I could find.

I'm off to Paris shortly and was going to download a suitable app or 2 but there's loads

Can anyone recommend a good offline GPS Paris map/touristy app?

Thanks

Not sure about the City Maps, but I use Metro (a free app). It has everything you need to travel within any major city (Paris including). Only gripe is it doesn't use GPS but very useful to find train/bus/tram/metro connections.
