How Much Space does Nearby Explorer and its Maps Take Up?

Good afternoon,
Does anyone know how much Nearby Explorer and the maps will take up on my memory? I don't need the maps of Canada? I mainly would use the app here in Salt Lake City UT and Id or Co sometimes. I have a 16gb phone and am wondering if this app would work. I do realize the app is spendy but you pay for what you get.
Many thanks everyone:

Hi,
It's gonna take up a lot of free space, especially with a 16GB device. Be sure if you do plan on getting it, it'll probably take up somewhere around 4 GB or so, just to download the maps regardless of canada or not.

If you just pick one map it will only take up 2 gigs. You don't have to download US and Canada together any more you can pick 1 or the other. Not sure how this works with other countries.

Jason, The app itself takes up 12.5 Megs. The U.S. maps are 2.8 gigs, and the United States and Canada Maps together are 4.3 gigs. I just updated to the latest maps version today. I hope this answers your question. You should be able to fit the App and its associated maps on a 16 Gig phone. AS the previous poster pointed out, there is an option now where you can just select the U.S. maps only.
