Download entire USGS Quads

Dara Parsavand

I have Backcountry Navigator and another app for my Nexus 7 (wasn't sure which one was better so I'm trying both).  One thing I don't like with either program is the way that you download maps.  I don't want to define my own areas and wonder did I get all that I need.  I want to download USGS 7.5 min quads by name and know I have the entire quad.  A lot of hiking guides will list the quads you need and it seems a lot simpler since I don't have to name my maps - they are already named uniquely for me.  Is this possible currently or could it be considered for future versions?  I find the interface on a PC when you go to the USGS store to be quite adequate - anything resembling this would be much better for me than the way the program currently works.  Especially when the move to US Topo (using all new geopdf files) is finished, I hope this functionality is offered by at least one app out there.
