I always keep Organic Maps in reserve. Waze and Google Maps provide better navigation when they're working, but I've had them fail in places lacking mobile data even when I had offline maps downloaded to Google Maps.
I've never seen Organic Maps fail.
- hedora 3y agoHere We Go’s (previously, Nokia Maps) offline support is as good as Organic Maps, and the routing is as good as Google/Apple. It runs on iOS and Android. CarPlay support is good. Haven’t tried android’s car ui. I use it on my iPhone, but I’m rooting for OSM, long term. I’d happily pay a bit to a company that put the money towards an open source, privacy preserving OSM app, and towards improving the upstream map data.
- richiebful1 3y agoHow is address lookup? That's the only bad thing about OSM based apps vs Google Maps in my region (rural Kentucky)
- troyvit 3y agoIt worked well when I used it. It was bought by Microsoft and is suffering the usual degradation that comes with that, but it's still a good app.
