For most people Organic Maps is the move.
I love OSMand and it has become my digital pin board of places I've been to over the years. It can do a lot (for example I have a preset with sat imagery and a transparent topo map overlay for hiking) but it can be clunky, and a lot of cool stuff is hard to find and change in the menus.
I love OSMand. It does exactly what a map should do. It doesn't have these weird user unfriendly quirks that Here and Google Maps have that make them harder to use.
I just have one problem with it, it gives some directions via notifications instead of voice, for some reason, which is baaaad when you're driving.
This is perfect! Ty
