Yeah OSM does not meet my needs in my area. I love the idea though. I’m using Here We Go. Good privacy policy, European, not sketchy. It is easily one of the best functioning alternatives to Google, and only 2 trackers: Crashlytics (which you can turn off in settings) and Facebook Login (which you can just not use). You can save locations and access search history without an account. There is a toggle to work offline if you’ve downloaded maps for your area, which I usually use. If you use it online it has integrated reviews from TripAdvisor, and traffic data, but you have to opt into sharing yours as well which I don’t want to. I use GMaps WV for discovery and reviews, and Here We Go for navigation. But you could probably get away with just Here We Go. As I mentioned though it does require Play Store for Android Auto.
Yeah but you know, first world problems. Still a good phone.
You’re welcome!

Thanks!
Gotcha, I’d not heard of it! I’ll have to try it out sometime
Hope you have a lovely day ☺️
