Organic maps is just damn great, the default any time I need to use map for routes or just whatever on phone

Also osm (and Organic maps using osm) has so much better coverage for smaller trails and forest roads than gmaps it’s crazy

I like Organic Maps, but I am sometimes really surprised at the locations that are not on it that have been around in my city for several years. And I don’t live in a particularly small/unknown place. The routes can also be a little questionable at times, but I would say it works pretty well 90% of the time for me. Since I have small kids, I don’t depend on it if I’m at all questioning its ability to navigate me. But when I’m driving by myself I pretty much use it exclusively.

It’s not Organic Maps’ fault, but that users haven’t added those places to https://www.openstreetmap.org

Be the change you want to see, it’s easy to add either through OM or the OSM website.

I’m not casting blame. I’m just mentioning a limitation/something people should expect
