Greetings! For the past few weeks, i have been using Apple Maps for navigation. Only to realise that it does not have some specific places i go to regularly. And offline maps are just broken. And since i’m here, what are the best FOSS Map apps that have offline navigation? (i did try osmand and maps.me, theyre both paid)

Like everyone else is mentioning, Organic Maps is probably an excellent option.

Personally, I also rather like Magic Earth, although it’s sadly not FOSS. But it does have crowd sourced traffic info, and imo a better search ux.

crowd sourced traffic info

I did not know that about Magic Earth. I’ll have to test that out on my next trip into the city.

The search is definitely the better and a big downside for Organic Maps. However ever since OM added TTS a few months back I haven’t gone back to Magic Earth. ME’s spoken directions are so unclear
