Basically, what the title says. Do you use any app, that is proprietary, but either has no OSS alternatives or they're all not good enough? If there is an alternative, what keeps you from switching?

I would like to find alternative to Garmin app. It is bad if you don't want to use the cloud features, also you can't plan routes without internet connection like wtf that's the only reason I bought it for.

Yes for the basic thing most people buy it and it is this fucked up. Also it uses Google maps, they are bit useless for cycling.

I have more mapping apps and all of them have offline planning.
