OsmAnd is a heavyweight with more features, including an advanced OSM editor, trip recording, Mapillary street view, and other plugins, for those that need them.

- fezfight 4y agoI can vouch that organic maps is really quite nice, straight forward and familiar. OSMAnd is more fun, in my opinion, because of all the features but if you're looking for familiar, organic maps is the way to go.

- 22c 4y agoWhat I'd really like is for all OSM apps to agree on a place to store the offline OSM data. I don't mind having multiple navigation apps with different strengths/weaknesses but I don't want to download several gigs of offline maps for each app I might use.
- colordrops 4y agoOrganic Maps is nice, thanks for the pointer. Maps.me looks very similar - are they related somehow?
- commoner 4y agoYes, Organic Maps is a fork of Maps.me. The original Maps.me was acquired by Daegu Limited, a subsidiary of the financial services company Parity.com, and they stopped publishing source code afterward. - Press release: https://www.londonstockexchange.com/news-article/MAIL/mail-ru-group-sells-maps-me/14739415 https://www.londonstockexchange.com/news-article/MAIL/mail-r... - OSM removed from Maps.me, then re-added: https://github.com/mapsme/omim/issues/14076 https://github.com/mapsme/omim/issues/14076 - No more source code releases from Maps.me: https://github.com/mapsme/omim/issues/14157 https://github.com/mapsme/omim/issues/14157
