@yetiftw for routes that don’t start with an internet connection? Or just ones where you lose connection part way there?
Edit: Just tried it and it looks like it Google will now do offline navigation for Car, but not public transport or pedestrian and offline mode hides the cycling ‘tab’ completely in the directions interface.
The feature looks made ugly on purpose though (compared to organic maps where you can just download the whole country or select more precisely what you want)
google maps can do that too though

IIRC At one point Google Maps would let you download a map for browsing, but you couldn’t do offline navigation. Don’t know if that’s still the case.
Organic Maps does the routing on the device.
it’s had offline navigation for years now

Thanks, I wasn’t aware of that. I should have really had this information a year ago when I was constantly screenshotting Google Maps, LOL.
