OsmAnd+ on F-Droid. It uses OpenStreetMap and it runs completely offline. It is also available in Google Play Store, but there it costs a fee.

The version without the + is limited in it’s function. It’s just the trial version.

Seems good. But the same not precise problem. Seems to be an openstreetmaps problem.

Another problem is that portuguese sound indication is only in brazilien, even when I choose pt and not br.

I can’t be the only one who is loving all the info and app sharing in the fediverse to get big tech’s grips off of us. I love all the great recommendations for FOSS and privacy products. .

I use organic maps. Though I don’t know how good the routing is. I tended to get traditional Garmin’s and not hook them up to the Internet, and that seemed pretty safe, as they don’t broadcast anything.
