I have tried other open source apps but always end up back on google maps because I live in a city and need detailed directions all the time....
That's the best part about OSM, if it's lacking in your area, it's super easy to fix yourself! iD, the editor built into openstreetmap.org, is super easy to use, or an app I started using a lot more recently is StreetComplete, which lets you answer simple questions as you walk around
I appreciate that and think its really cool. If I lived in a more rural area I could see using it, but it doesn't help me when I get lost in the city with complex traffic patterns. I wish I could quit google maps but it will be a while before it works well enough as a replacement for me.
