Having an offline, updated map in my pocket is invaluable when hiking and cycling in the mountains. I have been contributing to it as much as I can, to at least give something back.
- kjrfghslkdjfl 2y agoCurrently, I use google maps "offline maps" for this. However, one thing it can't do is give you directions in offline mode. Meaning, I can have the map in offline mode but not ask it to find me a path from A to B. Do you know of an OSM app that can do this is offline mode?
- Rygian 2y agoAs sibling comments point out, you can try OsmAnd or Organic Maps.

- bdjsiqoocwk 2y agoDo you know of an OSM app that gives directions to get from A to B, and works offline?
- lolc 2y agoI primarily use Osmand. Organicmaps is another option.
- bdjsiqoocwk 2y agoWhich one is better? Coming from someone who doesnt know much about OSM, what I immediately notice is that accoridng to the play store osmand has in-app payments whereas organic maps doesn't.
- pwg 2y ago> Which one is better? The answer there likely dives too much into personal preferences to be a "one size fits all" answer. Both are available on f-droid, so just try both and pick the one you prefer: Osmand: https://f-droid.org/en/packages/net.osmand.plus/ https://f-droid.org/en/packages/net.osmand.plus/ Organic Maps: https://f-droid.org/en/packages/app.organicmaps/ https://f-droid.org/en/packages/app.organicmaps/
- thefz 2y agoOsmand is free, in app purchases are for larger offline download map size and other things, IIRC. https://osmand.net/docs/user/purchases/ https://osmand.net/docs/user/purchases/
- fizwidget 2y agoI’d summarise it like this: * Organic Maps: simpler, nicer, more intuitive UI. Better for most general use cases. * OsmAnd: a somewhat clunky UI, but more powerful and flexible. Better for advanced use cases. Organic Maps is a better starting point IMHO.
