    As fluent, responsive and convenient as MAPS.ME, but without the blatant privacy breaches of MAPS.ME.

    Quicker and perfect interface

    This is one of those apps, that I really want to like as it is FOSS and respects privacy. Another plus is the nice interface. However, for me, I find the address search functionality lacking and it is hard to differentiate between multiple results with the same street name. This is very important for me as I am on the road a lot.
