  Also a great choice. I prefer organic maps for a variety of reasons (like ability to contribute to the maps), but a lot of people prefer OsmAnd. They are both very good.

  Organic Maps has fewer features and settings and concentrates on what most people use the most.
  It is also much, much faster than OsmAnd.

  OsmAnd is the Swiss army knife of Open Street Map frontends, but as I’m sure you’ll agree on (if you’ve used it), it can be a bit of a headache setting it up, as well as getting familiar with it.

  Organic Maps caters more to people seeking a pure alternative to Google/Apple Maps. It’s the layman’s alternative.

  If you’re a poweruser, and already familiar with OsmAnd, there’s no point in switching. But in terms of getting other, non tech savvy, people to switch, it’s a great recommendation!
