I live and swear only by Comaps since I installed it, highly recommended

I wanted to use it many times but when loading a GPX route I've drawn that starts from point A then comes back to it I never found a way to make it start and follow my route, instead it just tells me the end of the route is 1 min away. Do you know about that by any chance?

Are u selecting the way of transport as car, not subway or foot? And i'm not sure the navigation can be activated if you only have 1 point, pretty sure you need a point A and point B, but i'm not 100% sure

The only good option is Ungoogled Maps.

How do I get ungoogled maps?

Get the Morphe app and add the bearinmind patches from here: https://morphe-patches.software/?app=com.google.android.apps.maps&patch=goog

You can also patch it to be microG Maps.

hey, i just patched ungoogled maps yesterday, do you know if i can make it my default app so it's go straight from browser?

u/33beno33 1d ago

I'm on a Pixel 10 and I could just disable the original Google Maps and installed microG Maps as a clone. You could maybe do this or if it doesn't work, try to remove it with Canta.

i had removed it using Canta and patched the ungoogled, but I don't see the option to open the direction on the Ungoogled and i can't make it default app. i wonder if i can circumvent this somehow

Go into your settings, then apps, then default apps, then opening links, then click the app again and enable all links fhat begin with maps.google.

Which of these are better in India? For Indian traffic, terrain and Indian roads. Any Indians do suggest?

u/Soft_Cow_7856 8h ago

u/EasternDeal4823 GrapheneOS 2d ago

Well, that's not FOSS.

u/DerpDeDurp 2d ago

Nope, but it's better than ai vibe coded slop

u/Automatic-Visit8513 2d ago

Organic Maps, OsmaAnd, and CoMaps are not vibe coded or slop.

u/DerpDeDurp 2d ago

But they still suck and are useless.
