Last night Organic Maps was removed from the Play Store without any warnings or additional details due to "not meeting the requirements for the Family Program". Compared to Google Maps and other maps apps rated for 3+ age, there are no ads or in-app purchases, and no user information is collected in Organic Maps. We have asked for an appeal.
As a temporary workaround you can install the upcoming Google Play update from this link: https://cdn.organicmaps.app/apk/OrganicMaps-24081605-GooglePlay.apk
This APK should work with Android Auto.
Yeah, it’s great to help contribute like that, I live in a really small town so the map was quite out of date, so I patched it up. OSM is slowly becoming a legitimate competitor with Google Maps and Apple Maps in terms of data quality and Google is cowering in fear that a libre, ad-free app will be far better than their closed-source, ad-infested, data-selling app.
I’m fed up with Google (& other huge companies) so I’m totally with openstreetmaps! I’ll add more info a little by little. Thanks for your contributions!
I didn’t know about Organic Maps so I installed it for the first time. I registered to openstreetmaps and added 5 places. This is great 😸
It’s addicting. I mapped my entire city
Also check out StreetComplete! It’s an app that gamifies adding information to OSM
