I somewhat urgently need a map, but for the past day or two there are no maps in #OSMand available for download. Can anyone confirm or deny this problem?

Is this related to the OSM outtage 6 days ago, which was supposedly resolved?

(edit) workaround – download maps manually and side-load them. The maps are here:

https://osmand.net/list.php

Next question: how do you know which files cover a particular city if it’s not obvious from the filename?

    I switched phones a while ago and didn’t set it up until now. I just downloaded 2 and it worked fine. I can use them and see my apartment building and all.

      Thanks for the feedback. A couple other people also say they have no problem.

      I am trapped on a 3-year old version. I could upgrade from 4.0.7 to 4.0.9, but that’s as far as I can go because 4.1.9 abandons anyone running AOS older than 6.0. So I wonder if they recently changed the map server in a way that breaks old versions.

      I am also on Tor. But also tried a VPN. I doubt they would block Tor and VPNs and then also introduce blocks on both at the same time. Thought I should mention it in the remote off chance that it matters.
