I love the app, it’s great, simple and never breaks. I use it on my motorbike for rally riding. it would have 5 stars but the touch screen waypoint drives me mad. you should be able to disable it, or press to hold to go to location. when I’m using the map with my fingers […]

This isn’t an app you use to drive to a new house by address or find directions to a restaurant. You use this for traveling by carbohydrate. It obsoletes ALL subscription trail map apps. Being able to zoom down to a dime in parks and rivers, navigate without a data plan, and finding water and […]

Learning to love it… and I’ve now recommended it to others, mostly due to the extra information available (without internet) about points of interest on the map. Also easy to mark where you left the car and to backtrack if need be. For road use I’m not as keen due to sometimes getting unusable or […]

I love using Organic Maps for its simplicity and privacy-focused design. However, I’d like to suggest adding a ruler feature to measure distances between two or more points, similar to what Google Maps and Maps.me offer. This would be incredibly helpful for planning trips or calculating routes more effectively. It’s a small addition that could […]

Turn-by-turn directions failed. (1)Voice is too quiet compared to other audio. To hear it, I have to raise phone volume to levels painful for other apps. (2)When the t-b-t voice speaks, it stops my podcast app playing, and the podcast does not restart. Other mapping apps (Google Maps) pause rather than stop the podcast app, […]

Very good app, especially for exploring with no internet since you can download maps offline. I use organic maps for years (even before when it was MapsWithMe) and I was surprised it has more detalis than google maps for things like a water tap in the middle of nowhere and other useful things. Lately the […]

This is the best open-source maps app I’ve tried so far. However, it doesn’t have as many features as Google Maps (e.g. no traffic-based drive time or accident reporting), and it often can’t find a place name that Google Maps can (so I have to get the address from Google before this app can take […]

Amazing app. Works as well as the openstreetmap database behind it, so no, not everything is there, but it’s easy to add it and contribute. Runs so much better than google maps without all the spying software, and is great for hiking. I just wish the altitude on the elevation contours could be feet or […]

Solid map app. I like that I can use it offline.. that is, as long as you have maps downloaded, the world comes to you in 50-100mbs packets at a time. Which is not a con as much as a notion to be aware of. There is a trick to ‘googling’ addresses, and I’ve had […]

Very lightweight, use to take notes of places quickly. Navigation I still use Google maps as it often goes on strange longer routes. Something changed in recent updates so cannot scroll down to lower parts of long notes anymore, inaccessible. Tad annoying having to scroll west to east to access Asia as it doesn’t pan […]

I use for offline backpacking / hiking/ mountain biking & love it! Excellent tool. Simple & easy to use. My only suggestion is that you really have to be zoomed in to “see” trails. I like how CalTopo shows more when zoomed out, but CalTopo is almost the opposite extreme. If there were some “trail […]

Can’t find addresses that are in OSM data. Takes long time to calculate route. Route for no motorway Gardendale Al 2 McDonough Ga goes 60 miles (approx) north before going to destination that is east and a little south. Interface is good. Navigating the route displays smooth. Fonts are too small. No ads. Short distance […]

I’m updating my review. I am on Graphene OS and I prefer not to use Google Maps. I came back to Organic Maps and it’s great, but could be better in AA. I would like to see the following features in AA – automatic driving mode if no destination is selected and movement is detected, […]

It’s great to have the original Maps.me functionality back. This version is just so much easier to use and write up descriptions for your Bookmarks and categories. I have been using the older Maps.me for years offline when I travel overseas as to not use data connection and this make that again possible with Organic […]

I want to like it, but… Sometimes will take you 95% of the way to the destination and then tell you to get on an expressway for the last 1 mile, when there is a perfectly good non toll road to finish the trip. And search by business name is terrible. Most of the time […]

This is a simple, free and ad free navigation app that just works. I have discovered so many great places on foot and found tracks not available on other maps. I highly recommend it. It has far exceeded my expectations for a free app. Some improvements at the time of writing could be finer contours […]

I first opened the settings menu and realized this was the map app for me. Then I started a download search, getting even better. I can download by state and not by an overall area which would give me more than I wanted. Tapping on a location and being able to easily change the GPS […]

Great app, keep up the good work! My go to GPS thus far, was here, version 2. something, which I did not update since they started changing it. Recently noticed that it will not guide you, unless it has the internet connection. Weird, as my same version app installed on the car’s android radio works […]

This app is an excellent alternative to Google Maps. That being said, it does lack a few quality of life features (such as Android Auto support, which is coming in a branch on GitHub). My only real gripe is a big one though – it doesn’t always navigate you to the exact location of landmarks […]

I have been using this app to navigate around Asia for the last seven years, even in remote areas and countries with poor connectivity. I use it every day, often many times per day, and I love it. The offline maps are great, I can add pins, export pins to share with friends, and there […]
