    Osmand isn’t cheap to buy and a lot of people pay for it. Where else do you think their money comes from?

    Osmand is slow and too complex on my pixel 9, yet I still use it

      Stock ROM or possibly GrapheneOS?

          You enabled exploit protection compatibility mode as mentioned in the link?

        It’s slow in general, they’re not using vector maps like organic maps do. I love what OsmAnd does but it’s definitely slower to render and more sluggish to navigate than other maps on my FairPhone 5.

      It’s FOSS and available free on F-Droid. Small app transactions are not paying for that staff list.

      Osmand is slow

      Yeah, rendering speed is atrocious. Organic Map renders much smoother.

        Have you tried the “new” OpenGL renderer? It fares much better for me. (Actually, maybe it’s the default now?)

        @bonjour
        I think it was something like £2 when I bought it. Now it’s £39.99⁉️

        https://play.google.com/store/apps/dev?id=8483587772816822023

        They also have a €3/month subscription for ‘hourly’ map updates (and some cloud sync to compensate for Android getting worse).

        https://osmand.net/docs/user/purchases/android

        But is it getting very slow these days. Especially with hourly updates turned on.
