I love osmand for outdoor activities, recording hikes and bike rides, they actually have better info on trails than google maps (though there are specialized outdoor apps that are even better, usually paid). The UI has a lot of features and it’s not the easiest to navigate, but I love it exactly because it has all those features. Searching for places used to be a nightmare, but it got better. It even works with Android Auto (not sure abt Carplay for Apple folks).
So, what is it missing? Traffic info. And that’s why I still have Google maps.
The search is still bad, imho… If I search for a place, osmand doesn’t show the address in the list. So, I’d have to go through each of the items to find the one that I’m looking for.
