Howdy privacy experts,

I'm trying to de-google myself, what are your thoughts on HERE We Go? I have OsmAnd which I love for hiking and so on but it doesn't offer traffic altered directions since it can't look at overlays for routing.

I know HERE We Go is owned by car companies but it seems to be the best I can do, thoughts?

Magic earth is best for privacy.

Here has horrible map info. I'd never use here.

This is what I was hoping to learn! Nobody on any search recommended Magic Earth.

Thank you kind human!

You're welcome...? It's a great app, I do the yearly subscription thing hoping to help fund the development. I look forward to the day when I can use it for everything!
