A compelling alternative to other navigation apps!

Works well for basic navigation whilst maintaining privacy! While OpenStreetMap may not always have the most up-to-date info on points of interest in certain areas, being able to contribute directly from the app is a nice touch!

Liking this

I’m so far liking this as a replacement for Organic Maps which I’ve been using for quite some time. I wasn’t aware of the concerns that prompted the devs to create this app, a fork off of Organic, but they seem to have thought it out very well. It’s quite similar in most ways but I do like some settings and operations on this better. I’m not sure if actual navigation or routing is any different. The one thing I prefer on Organic Maps is the option to show all downloaded areas shaded on a single map when zoomed out.

Great app!

Keep bringing new features! I love the app!

getting used to it

i love this better than organic maps as it's simple to understand and the map is not a complete eyesore to look at, but i share the same grievance in that there is no satellite feature 💔 it's hard to determine a place when i can't see what the buildings look like :( also i think this app could benefit with a more modern look. in the future, i hope the devs can offer a selection of different map styles rather than defaulting to just a basic one. on the brightside though, i like that i can edit places and input new ones that haven't been registered yet without an OSM account. it gives a personal touch!

Tolle Karte, ausbaufähige Navigation

Gute App, aber leider kann ich nicht einstellen, ob ich die schnellste oder kürzeste Route bevorzugen will. Meist wählt er ein Zwischending, was leider die denkbar ungünstige Option ist… Die Kartendaten sind extrem gut und detailliert, die Routenplanung ist leider nicht auf diesem Niveau, kann aber ja noch verbessert werden.
