I'm very ready to move off of Google Maps, but as of yet, I can't emulate the biggest feature it has for me elsewhere: a spacial bookmarking system. My primary use of Google Maps is to remember places that I've been recommended by other people, and then when I go "I'm traveling to Portland, what places should I go?" I can check Google maps for everywhere I've tagged before.
If Apple Maps gives me that, especially if it syncs from a webapp to my phone, I'm in.
- lawkwok 8y agoIf you click on a pin and scroll down the card, there is a “Favorite” button. Clicking it will add it to your Favorites list which can be accessed at the bottom of the search results list. The list syncs to your Mac Maps app too. The interface is not the most intuitive but it’s there.
- mackrevinack 8y agoive been moving away from google the last few months as well and i was surprised how good osmAnd is considering its open source. i think the bookmarking in osmAnd should do what you need. it also has a wikipedia and wikivoyage layer which you might find useful when travelling. there isnt any web version of osmAnd though but you can sync the osmAnd folder to a pc and open the bookmarks in any gps app. ive never tried editing them there and syncing back to the phone so youll have to experiment yourself on that one
