I liked using it but 15€/year for navigation is too much for me. I’m going to stick to osmand now. At least osmand is open source. It has roughly the same features. It’s just not that beautiful. I paid for osmand btw. What’s your alternative?
Edit: And I like paying for osmand because it is open source.

In case anyone else out there is unaware, the “paid” tier for Osmand is unlockable for free to OSM contributors, meaning if you make a habit of contributing edits to OSM, then all you’d have to do is link to your OSM account within Osmand settings. Not to dissuade anyone from contributing financially, just sayin’ b/c I think that is a nice little perk for editors from the Osmand team.
I personally prefer CoMaps (forked from Organic Maps), the UI is a little more intuitive to me than Osmand.
Thanks for highlighting it.i also use the fdroid version. It didn’t stop me from buying and donating and contributing heavily. It’s really handy to add small changes or a note without investing a lot of time like with SC
