Note: If you don’t want to deal with stuff like this, I recommend you download and use it from F-Droid client or Accrescent AppStore.
Update: The app returned to the App Store.
Organic maps is better than Google maps for about everything besides finding businesses. If you’re traveling long distances for landmark tourism especially, it’s just objectively better IMO.
It’s the best map for finding businesses in my town, well OSM which it uses is because I updated them all using street complete and the web interface. You can be part of the effort to make free solutions the best solutions by upgrading your own areas info.
Been doing that, unfortunately I live in a big city so it’s a bit of an infinite treadmill. I like to just mark parking lots since no one seems to do those ever and they’re changing pretty frequently.
How is it better than all the other openstreetmap apps?
“all the other”? as far as i’m aware the only ones of note are organic maps and OSMand
I was thinking of maps.me but I understand this is actually a fork of that. There’s wikilok for proper trail navigation. And others that are less popular but still use the same base for mapping.
I wish there was better public transport on the level of Oeffi. Google Maps is still way ahead in this regard unfortunately.
