Why the fuck do you guys like OsmAnd so much? It's a pain to put in addresses.

I'm going back to Google Maps.

I like it because I can use it without having an internet connection.

>>51290091
Enjoy being lost then

The maps are free as in freedom (and also more accurate)

>why do you like
I can edit it. Thats the only pro tbqh

>Using osmand
>Here exists
wtf

Comparing to Google maps:
1. For address search there is "AddressToGPS", it's online though, integrates well with osmand.
2. POIs are based, searching for ATMs is a good example.
3. FOSS
4. Offline
5. More detailed.

Google maps just received an update for offline maps worldwide

this, i use POI's and favourited addresses more often than arbitrary addresses anyway

Here maps is much better.

OSM POIs are beyond based. They even have strip clubs and brothels marked.

I just used it last weekend when I went on a trip to Germany. Downloaded a couple of areas beforehand, and it gave me a fully operational navigation system using 0 data.

Of course if you never go anywhere, Google Maps is just as useful.

it's a little worse than gmaps, but not THAT bad
