I’m limiting my Google usage to the best of my ability. Monopolies always lead to a huge decrease in quality as shown by the likes of Reddit and so on. I will appreciate the help. I solely walk or use public transport if that matters. And I live in Germany. :)
https://organicmaps.app uses Open Street Map data, and I prefer its UI over OsmAnd
If you’re feeling adventurous, you can also contribute to OSM mapping with something like https://streetcomplete.app :)
I use OsmAnd for Android. I pay yearly for some extra features. I mainly use it for hiking and 4wheeling but it’s street navigation is pretty accurate.
I think your only choices would be OpenStreetMap or TomTomGo I think it’s called.
btw for your information, asklemmy is Lemmy’s equivalent to askreddit (not a support chat haha). if you want more android specific help, visit the Android Lemmy or the Google Lemmy
OSMAnd. I love the downloadable mapsets and screen configurability
unfortunately (and understandably) no option to my knowledge has traffic information, so I stick with Waze/GMaps, even though I’d like to choose a FOSS alternative.
I like OpenStreetMap, there are a few clients on F Droid
I’ve been slowly switching away from google products the past year or so. Switched from chrome to firefox, and google search to duckduckgo, but maps is one I couldn’t give up. It’s just better than all other competitors IMO.
The bit that gets me is Android Auto. I want to de-google, but MirrorLink is dead and I’m not buying an iPhone.
Organic Maps! Its based on OpenStreetMaps, open source, has a clean interface :)
Sygic has worked well for me.
I can recommend the app called Waze if it is available in your area
Google owns Waze
