I prefer Comaps over OSMand.
OSMAnd has a lot more features that I personally use
different purpose in my opinion
How so? Isn't it a fork after a dispute about direction?
You're thinking of Organic Maps
Comaps is not a fork of OSMAnd.. OSMAnd is a high powered offline maps and trip planning toolkit with many layer options, custom layers, multiple map views, and a range of plugins.
Comaps is.. Well an offline compatible Google mapsish clone. It doesnt have anywhere near the capability of OSMAnd. Its more "general user" focused.
The difference is a navigation app vs a maps app
