Depending on where you are, Organic Maps can have far far finer detail, especially when it comes to walking paths. I used this a couple times in Japan and Korea to find my way through densely packed shrine complexes, or over less-traveled hiking paths in the mountains.

It's all data from OpenStreetMap, you know :)

  • Absolutely, but the data is not the map, and there are so many average uses of the original data. Organic Maps is so much better than the OSM mobile site, for example, both visually and in providing the appropriate language for the user. And you can contribute useful data back to OSM, so it’s certainly my favourite map application even while I wouldn’t use the original site.
