Hi! Also a long time user of OSMand+ I'm going to have a look, but I have some questions for the community

  1. Does this app work as well for all parts of the world? I'm in Europe
  2. I have a subscription to OSM (just to support them). Would that be lost if I use this app?

Thanks for all the answers. Final question, just out of curiosity: Why are two apps developed? Why not simply make the osm app better?;

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

Osm does not have an app as it is a database that third party apps use.

Yes, it covers all the regions and Europe's has the most detailed maps in openstreetmap especially Germany.

I have a subscription to OSM (just to support them). Would that be lost if I use this app?

No, as it uses the same openstreetmaps database to power the app. So you can continue to donate.

From Europe: Works perfectly for me (and why wouldn't it, it's just OSM)
