    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.

    Good alternative to Google Maps on mobile while based on OpenStreetMap. Allow more fine grained access to data usage and give feedback during data consumption. Routing works relatively well.

    The option to have offline maps that don't expire is a plus.

    I'm searching for a replacement to Google Maps. I mostly use it for live-time public transportation routes and schedules. Unfortunately, HERE WeGo couldn't even get close to a reliably accurate account of the regular schedules in the Canadian city I live, let alone in live-time.

    It feels familiar to Google Maps but simplified! It seems to be trustworthy and private.

    The routing service is comparable to Google Maps. It is a perfect companion as a navigation tool in the car.
