Currently there’s only 3 big players when it comes to maps. You’ve got Google, Apple and Microsoft.

Let’s try to make OpenStreetMap the best map there is. Go grab StreetComplete and start mapping your surroundings when you’re out and about.

All the data is under a public license and managed by a non-profit foundation in the UK.

It’s very easy to get started, and quite addictive.

    Apologies if I’m missing something, but is there no live version? Do we have to download the local area? (OSMand)

      Yes, you have to download the local area. Processing happens on your phone.

      Organic Maps is a bit smoother to get started with but I’m very happy with OSM& now I have it set up as I want and was also glad to have it when renting a boat on vacation. If you’re new, try Organic Maps first.
