App information
Details for this app
Description
OsmAnd is an offline map and navigation app built on OpenStreetMap data. You can search for places by address, name, coordinates, or category, and choose which places—such as attractions, food, and health services—appear on the map. Map styles are available for activities and terrain including touring, nautical use, winter and skiing, topography, and off-road travel. The app also supports relief shading, plug-in contour lines, and overlays of different map sources. Plan routes without an internet connection, with options to account for inclines, preferred roads, and vehicle dimensions. Navigation profiles cover cars, motorcycles, bicycles, 4x4 vehicles, walking, boats, and public transport. Routes can be adjusted to exclude selected roads or road surfaces, and GPX tracks can be recorded offline. OsmAnd is open source. Its listing states that the app does not collect user data and lets you decide what data it can access.
