Are there any good free apps that help you plan routes, check where you are etc. I’ve heard about Viewranger and Gridpoint GB are they any good, free or yearly fee?

I use viewranger and all trails, I find them both decent. The one I use most though is garmin connect, but that's only really worthwhile if you are using a garmin gps device. It's great for sending gpx files of routes to your device as well as recording your hiking data
Just had a good 12 miles in Thrunton woods today following the route on my watch
