    Bookmarks and GPX export is a great addition. OrganicMaps continues to improve and I find myself using OsmAnd less and less (unless I need specific features).

      OrganicMaps appears to be gunning for the FOSS gold standard for maps.

      It covers navigation needs pretty well. Have not used google maps since last year.

        What is your use case for navigating? I feel like if I’m in a new place OrganicMaps isn’t so great for discovering POI. But if I’m in a place I already know decently it’s pretty rare I need navigation anyway. I’d like to use OrganicMaps more though :)

          Ohh I meant driving or walking point A to B, it works

          Yeah it ain’t gonna tell you where the new hot food joint is at. It ain’t replacing that use case for google maps, maybe one day we can crowd source that too

        It has sent me down some dead end roads in the past 6 months, and the time estimate is always far off even without traffic, but other than that it has been great and I can actually change night and day mode in my car manually because google maps is forever stuck in night mode for some reason.
