iOS 7 or later are compatible.

Does a 3S have iOS7? 'Cause I really haven't a clue what the thing runs on. Just know that most current apps won't work on it.

Avenza have an addon for Adobe Reader (free) that allows the maps to be viewed with coordinates on any computer. You can log into pdfMaps.com from any computer and download them to your computer rather than the phone. Be aware that to use the maps on the phone for use in the PDF Maps application you need to "load" them which is slow (a few minutes) and this should be done before the trip. Once loaded they are fast to draw and redraw.
As well as the NSW lpi maps all the Victorian 1:25k maps are available but a bit pricey for downloads.

I don't need a fancier phone, and can't afford one anyway. All it has to do is a bit of texting and the occasional weather update.
