I use Komoot for wild walking and biking, and it’s incredible. Hugely more accurate and reliable. Just wondering if there’s something like that for city and intercity travel. Thanks for suggestions!

    In the motorcycle world we love Kurviger and DMD2 (this one can be used as a launcher), you can also get OSMAnd~ on fdroid and for walking/biking there’s Trailforks (mountain bike) and I used to use Viewranger to track my hikes.

    Also there’s the Garmin series of apps, I think you can use them directly on your phone but I’m not 100% on that…

    Edit: Don’t forget one caveat! Map quality isn’t the same! Maps sourced from OSM might be more precise for off road stuff in busy locations but in general Google maps will be more precise for city streets if you’re looking for an address.

      The quality of OSM data really just depends on how many people are interested in mapping the area. Look at German cities for example and the data is excellent.
