Its ok, maybe it doesn’t find all places but as a turn by turn navigation tool it’s fine.

Not Yourbusiness
Requires a specific device, from a specific company, unlike most others. These should be split into two sections: Google Maps on Web and Google Maps on Android, so one does not get recommendation, worth nothing of value in advice, since you cannot take OSM with you on the go.
