I have seen others suggest Magic Earth re offline navigation, as well as Organic Maps, as an answer to this question. I’ve yet to test either and was wondering if you might have a brief opinion to offer? If not, no prob! Thanks.
No experience with Magic Earth but I’ve used Organic Maps a lot when trying to use Google less. The offline maps are great, I can get a route quickly when I don’t have internet (like on a roadtrip), this has really helped in a few pinches. The navigation is usually fine, but it doesn’t know a lot of private addresses in my city. The dataset is always improving but clearly behind Google.
imo magic earth is a navigation app, full stop. it does that amazingly well, including live traffic, but i wouldn’t use it for anything else. organic maps is a better general-purpose map but isn’t a patch on magic earth for nav.
Organic Maps for offline navigation
I use OSMAnd~ for offline navigation, works great as well

Magic earth is not open source, if that matters to you.
