- I miss the ability to make Wikivoyage articles (and their associated POIs) available offline, which is really useful when travelling.

- OsmAnd's flags feel more ephemeral, whereas in Organic Maps I'm just adding them as regular bookmarks under "My places", which make them harder to distinguish from bookmarks I want to keep long-term.

- Bus lines and stops are pretty useful if you're taking the bus somewhere unfamiliar.

But those are pretty minor; I've still switched to Organic Maps just because it's so much easier to use (ironically, that probably is because it has fewer features).

Also, I just keep both installed just in case, so I can always fall back to OsmAnd :)

Oh also, OsmAnd's bicycle routes seem better (shorter/prettier routes)? Though I'm not even sure if Organic Maps's directions are for bicycle - the icon looks like a motorcycle, so they might be motorcycle directions.
