Interesting, I’m here from /all. What exactly is Organic Maps, and what’s its connection to OpenStreet Maps?

Organic Maps is open source, beautiful and private. The app uses map data from Openstreetmap.

Ah right. So it’s like a front-end alternative UI to OSM, basically?

Yeah, and very good one especially when it comes to cycling and walking routes - including forest trails, but I’m also using it for navigation when driving. Damn solid piece of software

Exactly, yes. One key difference in android v/s OSMand is that organic maps’ route calculation is way faster.

I use OrganicMaps for viewing my own collection of my daily GPS coordinates, it’s pretty handy for recalling where you were / when and not having to sell out to Google Location History to do so.

It ain’t Google maps ready but for any FOSS enthusiast it is the proper choice esp once you install TTS service

It works

I have been contributing to the osm database a lot recently so that is quickly changing.
