Are there any good apps to use as a replacement for google maps? It's the only google service I'm still using.

Is there one that let's you filter out chain restaurants?

Or block certain businesses?

EDIT : project seems abandoned.

~~If you are looking for certain businesses there is CityZen~~ : https://f-droid.org/en/packages/com.cityzen.cityzen

OpenStreetMap based city navigation app that helps you explore your city easily. The app shows points of interest in different categories such as ATMs, gas stations, drugstores, mobile phone stores etc. based on your location and it does so without keeping your data. If you are an OSM contributor you can also edit or add POIs directly from the app.

That hasn't had an update in 4 years. There has to be security issues with that, right?

Thanks for spotting that.
