My dad uses Google Maps, and he mentioned that it seems to be getting worse. Like, giving him directions that are obviously worse than alternatives. Has anyone else here experienced this?

      My biggest gripe with Organic Street Maps (and every OSM) client that I’ve tried is that I can’t find a way to display the destination address when I get close. I do some delivery work and that drives me crazy. Otherwise, it’s great.

      Do you know if either of these incorporate traffic conditions?

        as they are privacy focused and have significantly fewer users, not yet.

        but, the more users contributing and making requests, the sooner it could be integrated.

        you can help by being one of those users!

      Does it save route history? Or destinations? That’s one feature I like with Google, disregarding any privacy concerns.

        I use OsmAnd+ and you can configure it to save a track every time you use navigation. It can also send that track live to self hosted tracking servers. You need to enable the trip recording plugin.
