TL;DR: MAPS.ME got bought by a payments company and completely rewritten, I want it back. I will rebuild the original app and bring it back. Sign up for this email list to get the original version back. Or subscribe to this Telegram channel. On December 20th, 2020, version 2.0 of the MAPS.ME app got pushed to the Apple App Store. It is expected to land on Android in the coming days. This is due to the app being sold off to a South Korean payments company. What changed? Compare these two images.
Well if MAPS exists and runs fine, why bother with MAPS.ME?
MAPS is not a full fork of MAPS.ME. MAPS.ME is a big platform that is more than just the app and the MAPS app is fully dependent of the main FLOSS app and this services.

OSMAnd is an alternative to it anyways but the source code requires a lot of cleaning in propietary things as far I remember.
I don’t like OSMAnd. It’s UI is just too clanky
it’s gotten way better the last 2-3 years. Did you try it recently?
Nah. Mayb I’ll install it again and see how it does
Ouch, for me is a bit complex. I won’t deny that but once you get used to it is slightly comfy or “like being in your house”.
