I have been happily using OsmAnd while traveling outside my coverage area. Anybody have pros or cons of each of these? I just downloaded this one and didn’t really like that it automatically began downloading 250 megabytes of my localish region. In some places that would eat up my entire data package. I would rather it asked.

You can download maps for offline use just like in OsmAnd. I used OsmAnd before but the UI has become sooo sluggish I switched over to OM

What a crap app. It shows NOTHING in Vietnam. Totally ridiculous to expect people to use this garbled mess.

This is not the fault of the app. It use’s openstreetmap. So if you find stuff is missing, go ahead and contribute. Only this way it can improve.

@SurpriZe It most definitely does show something in Vietnam. I know, because I added them to the map. Btw Grab is contributing to openstreetmaps and you can too. What did you find that was missing on the map? Your local cafe? Just put it there.
