the biggest problem I have with switching is that Google Maps is a business directory. open street maps is empty where i live. it works okay for navigation, but not so much for finding a coffee.
Yeah trying to find anything on any of the competing apps is basically impossible. I mean ffs OSMand literally couldn't do address lookup!
I just recently learned this.
For OsmAnd, go to search, then the categories tab, and then hit "Online Search".
Voila, address lookup.
