    OsmAnd is like a Swiss army knife of navigation apps. It is amazing not only for driving, but hiking, cycling, horseback riding, boating... you name it! It is more difficult to set up than most other apps, but its versatility is incredible. It can connect to the car through ODB, show weather overlays, and many many things one doesn't even associate with a navigation app.

    Other than OpenStreetMap there is a phone app that lets you do routes. OsmAnd also supports CarPlay

    Offline, privacy-respecting, light and fast. Has so many importamt points of interest other than just businesses, such as drinkable water, toilets, benches, trash can, EV chargers, tyre compressors, etc. The app is great when hiking, cycling, or driving.

    The option to have offline maps that don't expire is a plus.

    I'm searching for a replacement to Google Maps. I mostly use it for live-time public transportation routes and schedules. Unfortunately, HERE WeGo couldn't even get close to a reliably accurate account of the regular schedules in the Canadian city I live, let alone in live-time.

    It feels familiar to Google Maps but simplified! It seems to be trustworthy and private.

    Good alternative to Google Maps on mobile while based on OpenStreetMap. Allow more fine grained access to data usage and give feedback during data consumption. Routing works relatively well.

    It is only available on Apple OS. Google maps is OS independent.

    Requires a specific device, from a specific company, unlike most others. These should be split into two sections: Google Maps on Web and Google Maps on Android, so one does not get recommendation, worth nothing of value in advice, since you cannot take OSM with you on the go.

    Its ok, maybe it doesn’t find all places but as a turn by turn navigation tool it’s fine.
