Sounds like a spiritual successor of MAPS.ME.

It's a fork of Maps.me, so it's an identical successor.

  • Indeed. I checked it out on my phone, and it works the same as MAPS.ME did, and also they state this on their github repo: "Organic Maps is a better fork of MAPS.ME, an Android & iOS offline maps app for travelers, tourists, hikers, and cyclists based on top of crowd-sourced OpenStreetMap data and curated with love by MAPS.ME founders. No ads, no tracking, no data collection, no crapware."

    Although, they're still downloading the maps from mapswithme.com. It'd be nice to have an alternative ecosystem.
