I have been looking for alternative to Google products, including Google Maps and Waze. The best I've found is Organic Maps and OsmAnd. But I'm missing two features: public transport routes and live trafic.

For the latter point, I have used Magic Earth which uses OSM. But the app itself is not FOSS.

Does anyone know what their business model is? They don't charge for the app or service and the privacy policy does not seem like they commercialize data... What is their deal as a company?

For public transport nly (I mean, not live traffic) you have the open source Transportr on Android at least (on F-Droid for instance)

Thanks for the suggestion! I knew it but my country isn't in it :'( I could get involved to add it though...
