I'm looking to never have to use Google Maps. Is OsmAnd+ the best?

OsmAnd+ the best

That's what I use. Some may get too overwhelmed with the feature set it has, so Organic Maps would be a more basic nav app.

But... OsmAnd+ is far more advanced than Google Maps, and can be customized every which way.

Another bonus: You'll never see ads masquerading as POIs on a map.๐Ÿ˜€

Any way to get live traffic? I'm not finding anything very useful online

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 11 months ago (1 children)

For live traffic, try Magic Earth. I haven't used it in a while, but it's another alternative to consider. :)

Thanks. It's been about a year since I've tried this one. Just grabbed it again. Trying to find alternatives for when I 'de-google' my life. Hopefully sooner than later
