I mean the most popular map apps just download relevant data as it's needed so that's probably the assumption most people are coming in with.

Ah I see, so it wasn't about the downloads but that he had to tap a button.

It's a much better system with manual downloads anyways, since you know you have all the maps for a region available offline, vs with most mapping apps you have no idea and could just end up with no maps loaded.
