OSMAnd is just a white elephant at this point.
@TheFrirish @mamus what does white elephant mean
@cbed @TheFrirish@jlai.lu @mamus @openstreetmap

Actually I translated badly from French. I mean it's a very cluttered app that tries to do too many things. On long routes the battery consumption is really high, in order of 1% per minute if you put in a route that's more than 1000km long.
@InsertUser @mamus @openstreetmap ah yeah makes sense
