Description
Been using CoMaps – Navigate with Privacy for a couple months now. It’s basically a free and open-source maps app based on OpenStreetMap data. Pretty solid if you’re into offline navigation and privacy-focused apps.
Here’s what you can do: You can plan and navigate your trips without needing a data connection, which is super handy. There’s also community-driven map updates, so the maps stay fresh. And the app is designed with privacy in mind – no data tracking or anything like that.
Look, if you value privacy and want a simple, offline-focused maps app, you’ll probably like this. It’s not perfect – the UI can be a bit clunky at times – but overall it does the job. Worth checking out if you’re tired of big tech maps apps.
Editor Opinion
So here's my honest take on CoMaps. I've tested a bunch of maps apps and this one stands out for its privacy-focused approach. It's not as slick as Google Maps, but the offline functionality is really useful, especially when traveling. And the open-source, community-driven model is refreshing compared to the big tech alternatives. The downsides are that it can be a bit buggy sometimes and the UI takes some getting used to. But for a free app, it's pretty darn good.

Love being able to use CoMaps offline and it's incredibly easy to use for planning walking routes. Definitely the best map app I've used.
Smooth navigation, great and open data (OpenStreetMap), can be used fully offline with low battery usage. Fully open source, focused on user privacy and ease of use. Great alternative now...
Terrible app. Can't create a route from my home to a friend 10 miles away. I record my home address & my friends and all it wants to do is...
