Didn't find in the program a Russia map. Russia to treat Europe. Developers have programs any prejudiced relation to Russia? There are countries of the former USSR, Belarus, Ukraine, Kazakhstan, Moldova, and isn't present Russia. We in Russia too buy programs through App Stora and already the second time I face a problem that developers it is more for on the American users and don't consider that fact that their programs can interest people from the different countries. It is sad.

Дмитрий, Смотрите чуть ниже в списке - Where's Russia.  Там ответ (но не очень хороший с моего взгляда) на ваш (и мой) вопрос.  Эмили

Hi Dmitry,

No offense was intended! The trouble is that when I originally wrote
the program (for the U.S.) I assumed that no land masses cross the
180th meridian. Because Russia crosses the 180th, Magic Maps will
require a fair amount of internal changes in order to present Russia
as a contiguous whole. Right now I am busy with other features, e.g.
international geocoding and getting Magic Maps to work properly with
app sandboxing. I will add support for a Russian map when I have time.

Best regards

Evan
