One of the best european Google Maps alternative. Its actually way better for hiking than google maps but catching up in other features

Apparently an Openstreetmap frontend. Seems like a very good one, actually! At least when traveling in countries with alphabets other than Latin, because Openstreetmap.org shows everything in the local script only ๐Ÿคฃ

Thanks (I also see OP has fixed their title somewhat). That page looks nice enough, if they have a good f-droid app to go with it => ๐Ÿ‘

Map app, Google Maps alternative.

The search seems to function very well at least in Helsinki. The suggested routes do make sense. One bus line has a slight error, though, as the map shows the 77N as turning away from Hรคmeentie, going 50-ish metres along another road, making a U-turn and returning to Hรคmeentie. This is not visible in Openstreetmap.org or at HSL.fi.

How is mapy with regard to confidentiality?
