Organic Maps is the best open source Maps App I've ever tried

It’s essentially an open source fork of maps.me by the original creators.

I’ve been using OSMAnd for years, but it always felt laggy and not that reliable. Searching was slow and so on. Many street or things it didn’t instantly find.

In the Graphene App Store I jnust discovered Accrescent (another app store thing but only with like 10 apps - they’re all gold though, god damn)

An in there I found organic maps. And this shit is google maps level responsive. If you’re on the lookout for a google maps replacement - consider trying this.

Byeeee

It is nice app but the problem is it doesn’t show Czech hiking and cycling routes by default. I didn’t figured out how to enable them.

Wow that genuinely looks unbelievable!

It’s like an old mall or whatever map except without you are here and movable!

It’s my go to! Also check out the !open_street_maps community

Edit: sorry, it looks like the more active community is !openstreetmap but I guess you can join both lol!

Shame it doesn’t do street numbers (possibly an OSM limitation?). Other than that, solid.

Depends what you mean with “doesn’t do”. I haven’t used Organic maps that much yet, but OSMand can handle street numbers. So Organic maps should too.

However it handles them very poorly, you have to type the address in a certain way or it won’t recognise the number in it. Sharing from another app works pretty well most of the time though.

Many street numbers do not exist in OpenStreetMap because no one created them! So if you know about some area with this issue, help edit the map!

For driving I recommend Magic Earth, it’s based on OSM data but uses proprietary traffic information as well

Yeah, you can see that organic maps is sadly not there yet in terms of driving-interface, but hopefully its getting there soon.

Afaik the app is far younger than magic earth and for what it is its super good. I’m so stoked to see how organic maps is gonna develop in the coming years
