Contributing to #OpenStreetMap is really rewarding. With #OsmAnd and its live updates you can see your changes on the map about 10-15 minutes after you submit them. A big difference from #mapycz where you wait days for a review and even longer for the change to show up on the map.
i am using #Osmand for #navigation. the #f-droid version. i was so lucky with it, a long while it ran great on my old #samsung#galaxy#s5 on #lineageOS but now the crashes are back and its unusable again which it was several (partly very long) periods in the past. i don't know what they are doing that its such a pain in the ass; maybe they have problems to do a good memory management. i am very sad, because i love that app and its plugins. it nearly is able to do everything you would like to do with such an app. when it runs. now i'll try it with #organicmaps. seems to be spartan but stable. and it has no trackers. if you have any further ideas, you are welcome.
Nelíbí se mně, jak Seznam vyřešil svolení se sběrem osobních dat uživatelů. Ty dialogy jsou manipulativní a nabídka platit za necílenou reklamu absurdní. Přitom já bych třeba za Mapy.cz platil rád – ale tahle varianta ve hře není, takže sbohem. Díky @sesivany jsem narazil na #OsmAnd Maps, které mají pěknou aplikaci nad podklady Open Street Map, a nastavil jsem měsíční předplatné. Tam jsem za menší peníze opravdu zákazník, nejenom nějaký moula, který chce prudit s GDPR, tak ať si to zaplatí.
The new "money or data" policy of #Seznam made me explore #OSM based apps and I'm really surprised how good they have become.
And #StreetComplete? It's best fun since I was "stumbling" to help Mozilla Location Service 10 years ago. 🙂
BTW any tip for a good map app that shows #hiking trails? I like #OrganicMaps, but I can't make the app show them. 🤷
I have been using #OsmAnd everywhere exclusively for the last fifteen or so years, and especially in Czechia it worked for me quite well (even better than in more rural parts of France or Italy, and poor Croatia … there is really a lot of work to do there!).
Est ce qu’il y aurait des utilisateur·ices d’ #OSMAnd ici? Impossible de trouver l’option pour lui faire afficher les bâtiments sur la carte 😤
j’ai bien désactivé l’option dans paramètres de la carte "masquer les bâtiments" mais ça ne change rien…
Quelqu’un·e aurait une piste?
Merci!
@alm10965@stefanhanauska m. W. nutzt auch Apple für die iPhones #openstreetmap. Die Frage ist immer welche App man über die Daten baut. #osmand ist sehr brauchbar für Navigation. Nur die Echtzeit Verkehrsdaten fehlen mir.
#MagicEarth as online SatNav, #OSMAnd as offline navigation. For train/bus #Offi. If I search for a chippie or something, #gmapswv . All of them available at #FDroid store
Question de newbie : quel gps de vélo vous avez vous ? #velo#challengePerso en fait je me rends compte que mon téléphone tient pas la journée entre le trajet même en mode avion / économie d’énergie et les photos. L’idée serait de pouvoir utiliser Komoot dessus à la limite sachant que j’ai pas d’ordi sur moi…
J'utilise #Osmand sur le téléphone. Tu peux lui demander d'allumer l'écran uniquement quand c'est nécessaire (changements de direction). En ville il s'allume très souvent mais en voyage tu peux pédaler longtemps sans tirer sur la batterie. Parce que l'écran consomme beaucoup.
Auf der #CLT2024 einen Vortrag von @ascherbaum gehört und dort @everydoor kennen gelernt.
Heute Chance genutzt und ein Paar Öffnungszeiten und Straßenlaternen in #osm#OpenStreetMap erfasst.
Geht damit echt simpel. 😍
@Nerd@Hypatia@Kaffee_Junkie42 Mit #OsmAnd Edits bin ich nie warm geworden. Was ich allerdings gerne mache ist dann ein kurzes Video aufzeichnen und daheim noch mal alles nacharbeiten. Da fällt einem noch die ein oder andere Kleinigkeit auf.
I'm pretty tired of having to use #GoogleMaps to share locations with people I'm making appointments with.
I've made a little application to convert the sharing links from #OrganicMaps to Google Maps which I open in this example, but there's no need in practice, I just have to share it with whoever I want!
Aufgrund von diverser Zipperlein habe ich mir jetzt auch ein E-Bike zugelegt. Altes Modell, mit altem Modell vom Steuercomputer - Kiox (ohne Smart) heißt das Ding.
Der kann mit Spezial-App auf dem Handy auch Navigationsanzeige...
Ich hab jetzt inzwischen die Handyhalterung an den E-Bike-Lenker gebaut ... und hab mich am Samstag schon mit #OSMAnd durch die Stadt navigieren lassen.

QT @pluralistic - Hard to overstate how enshittified Google Maps has become. Went looking for my local locksmith. Gmaps shows 20+ fake locksmith referral scam outlets and doesn't even register the real locksmith, despite being fully visible in Street View.
Instead, a red pin on the shop identifies it as a fake locksmith scammer. The real locksmith - which has been there SINCE 1942 (!!) and is a verified merchant - doesn't even show up.
Today’s movie is Desert Blue (1999) starring Casey Affleck, Brendan Sexton III, Kate Hudson, John Heard, Sara Gilbert, and Christina Ricci.
This is considered an “arthouse” film.
It is about a cable TV starlet stuck in a small town who gets to know the local eccentric teens. Due to a chemical spill, the town is in quarantine and so everyone must stay put. Soon she finds herself falling in love with a loner.
This is rated 6.1 on iMDB so it’s considered better than average – but we’ll see.
@losttourist@atomicpoet@organicmaps I seem to remember that the movie was filmed in California's Mojave desert -- which mostly has no cellphone reception once you get away from the interstate. Poor/no cell reception, especially for data, is very common in the US desert southwest. I use #OsmAnd which has offline maps (and paper #maps are fun too).
Oggi ho scoperto che su #OsmAnd si può usare la ricerca online (ottima per salvare luoghi da visitare fuori dalle mappe già scaricate) chiaramente sempre nel database di #OpenStreetMap
I have an old Aftershokz and audio is decent, but sub-par music listening experience when compared to my other headsets. No wind-noise protection, but you get to hear what's going on around you, while receiving guidance or notification from a phone.
I like pairing it with the #OsmAnd app, for turn-by-turn navigation, and when I want to follow custom GPX tracks.
I wear a helmet, glasses and mask with it, and no issues whatsoever.
Alternative to Google maps?
Are there any good apps to use as a replacement for google maps? It’s the only google service I’m still using.
