Jfc. So how is OsmAnd these days?

[–] soratoyuki@piefed.zip 5 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Just installed it to compare my driving route tomorrow with Google Maps and OsmAnd crashed. Sigh.

I think car navigation is better in CoMaps, even though OsmAnd is superior in every other way.

I really don't like the user experience of OsmAnd to the point where I find it unusable. I use Comaps all the time and love it. Each to their own I guess.

Just tried Comaps and It was pleasantly acceptable.

OsmAnd doesn't crash for me but for some reason it gives most directions as notifications instead of saying them out loud, which is completely useless. I use HERE WeGo instead.
