When you open the Maps application, Maps zooms in to the location that was saved from your last session. If no position was
saved from the last session, Maps zooms in to the capital city of the country you are in based on the information the device
receives from the cellular network. At the same time, the map of the location is downloaded, if it has not been downloaded
during previous sessions.
