I use OSM and Organic Maps, but I have difficulty searching by address or business. I end up using my computer, finding the location, matching it to the map in the app, and favoriting it. Am I doing this the dumb way? Is there an alternative FOSS navigation app which has this functionality?
You probably live in a deep village… I always use a navigator, even for short distances, maps show where the speed limit cameras are, where the police are now (by 80%) because users set where they are now… Interchanges, highways, etc. But in general, of course, cameras (their number grows like mushrooms after rain)Now you can’t go anywhere without navigation.
A “deep” village? What does that mean?
There are over 130,000 people in my city, growing by about 1,000 every year. So not a huge city but not a village. 😄 Takes probably 30 minutes to drive across town with negligible traffic? Anyway…
Why do you need to know where speed limit cameras and police are at all times? Sounds to me like you prrrooobably shouldn’t have a driver’s license to begin with? Or you live in a place where police are a danger to society rather than protection. I’m willing to guess which side of the Atlantic but I’ll refrain.
I can definitely travel without navigation lol. Even when visiting a bigger city with maybe half a million people. As long as I know where I’m going, it’s fine. 👍
