Greetings! For the past few weeks, i have been using Apple Maps for navigation. Only to realise that it does not have some specific places i go to regularly. And offline maps are just broken. And since i'm here, what are the best FOSS Map apps that have offline navigation? (i did try osmand and maps.me, theyre both paid)

Organic Maps is FOSS, supports offline navigation, and has an iOS version. It uses OSM maps you can download as needed.

+1 on organic maps

Gets regular updates and improvements. They recently added (slightly experimental) track recording.

You can easily import bookmarks and tracks.

You can also edit osm data if you have an account and see something outdated like opening hours.

Supports TTS instructions for handsfree navigation if your phone has TTS installed.
