Just use Osmand on an old smartphone without a SIM. It's less worse than old Garmins and map updates are constant. Keep your system clock accurate for fast GPS lock.

That is a great idea. I have a Pixel 4a with GrapheneOS. I am an idiot for not thinking about just not putting my SIM in the phone.

  • Phones without a SIM can also always call 911. Funnily enough Google Maps and Waze works without Google Play services. Just click past the modal that shows up very rarely complaining about it.
