Brilliant ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Just tried for the first time today and I really like it. Simple, clear and easy to use. Has some nice features too, including a neat little progress bar at the bottom of screen. Thank you CoMaps!
The best free mapping app
Absolutely brilliant app for walking, cycling and even as a great sat nav back up. The only slight change I’d like to see is the colour of footpaths in light mode. They are currently a white dotted line on a very pale green map background. A darker colour for paths would make this app unbeatable
great app
i appreciate the work that the devs are doing to give us a good alternative to that of gps' made by big tech. thank you for working so hard, i'm glad yall are always giving consistent updates 🙏 hopefully new map styles/a satellite feature will be implemented in the future :)
Supplementing Apple Maps
Update 10/6/26:
Very nice map app! It has a bug though. After making an edit, tapping on another location and trying to tap on the edit (pencil) will instead drop a pin on and select the location beneath the icon.
-------------------
I really like the detail available in this map app! While it isn't as feature rich as the big corps, the fact that this map can point out individual lamp posts, fire plugs and trash cans is nice. I like to use them as markers, while I'm searching for my shot or want to make finding a specific location easier. Really, it's not going to take much more before Apple and Google start to get nervous
I hope that the devs can service the marker feature. Custom names and icons would make locations easier to identify your saved locations

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.

Impossible de trouver les rues par la fonction recherche !

Very Nice Though Needs UX Improvements
First, this is a good implementation. I enjoy that OSM is used and also that there is a focus on privacy. I appreciate this application and in general I find the appearance to be appealing, intuitive, and functional.
With that being said, I do think that some parts could use work and it would also be nice to add satellite imagery. If it is available, I have not yet found it.
The voice for navigation isn’t very good. I see that it can be changed; yet, I cannot seem to get it off of “Daniel” which sounds awful. I followed the instructions but I also think that such shouldn’t be an option. It should make use of the more advanced voice overs, namely Siri, that are natively on iOS.
I like the application, but these detractors are undoubtedly glaring.

Ignores location privacy
When in the background CoMaps continues to use my location even though I have every privacy setting I can find turned to not allow this.
great alternative. just missing a few features
hi! i recently switched over from apple maps due to apples new ad campaign. this is the first alternative i found that accounts for the time zone in the eta, which was a must for me. and this app includes some really great features that are better or similar to what i was used to.
the bjggest feature that i miss, is ratings of restaurants being available when i search around. and i could sort by rating and by avg price of the restaurant.
the other feature that ive always wanted in a map-app that ive never seen and could set this apart from all maps, is gas station prices listed when you’re searching around or adding a stop.
anyways. i think this is great, and im gonna continue to get used to this app. but at the moment, im still using apple maps for searching for restaurants.

Sehr gelungenes UI Update
Das UI Update ist sehr gelungen und hebt CoMaps jetzt deutlich von OrganicMaps ab. Details der Karte könnte bei kleineren Zoom Level länger angezeigt werden, hier wird sehr früh die fast leere Karte angezeigt. Eine modernere UI für die Navigation würde die App perfekt machen.
Amazing Offline Maps App
Amazing app, lacks some intuitiveness but I trust that with time the UI will become more UX friendly. Only thing that’s stopping me from moving over from Waze is the underwhelming traffic alerts (speed cameras for example) and lack of traffic information although i trust this will be resolved with time.

Meilleur app Navigation Open Source
Quel plaisir ! L’équipe derrière le projet est top, pleins de nouveautés et améliorations arrivent régulièrement, je ne peux que recommander
Super App
Das neue UI sieht richtig gut aus und lässt sich gut bedienen. Dass man direkt oben auswählen kann, mit welchem verkehrsmittel man unterwegs ist, finde ich genial! Es dürfte allerdings stärker ausgeprägt sein, zum Beispiel könnten die routen deröffentlichen Verkehrsmittel deutlicher hervorgehoben werden, wenn man in der oberen leiste den zug auswählt.
Ich hoffe, dass die routenplanung mit öffentlichen Verkehrsmitteln noch verbessert wird und beim rauszoomen würde ich gerne sehen, welche Bereiche ich bereits heruntergeladen habe.

!!Forced surprise UI change, less screen space!!
If you’re reading this and like the way comaps looks now, DO NOT UPDATE.
The UI (user interface) has been changed to add a large row off icons at the top of the screen, and a large search box at the bottom that CANNOT BE TURNED OFF or hidden.
So now you get less usable screen space to see the map (which is the point of a mapping application).
Yes, ALL icons can be hidden, but then we don’t have the useful ones!
It’s ok to add features that could be useful, but large impact new changes should be optional.
Why can’t we turn off or hide the items that now cover a large part of the map, and are SUPER visually distracting?
Are you trying to be like google / apple / bing maps?
Comaps was great before this forced change.

Danke für diese Alternative!
Ich bin froh, mit CoMaps eine kostenlose, funktionierende und ansprechende Navigationsapp gefunden habe, die eine echte Alternative zu anderen Datenkraken oder Abomodellen darstellt. Einen ganz großen Dank an die engagierte Entwicklercommunity!
Lifesaver
It was a lifesaver at Yosemite National Park where the signal is extremely limited.
