I think I bought it for some 5€ some years ago, osmand+ that is. I thought that was a bargain really. I’ve been using the fdroid one now for a long time, I wanted to donate some more money but they seemed to accept bitcoin only. I’ll have a look if that changed.
It’s slow in general, they’re not using vector maps like organic maps do. I love what OsmAnd does but it’s definitely slower to render and more sluggish to navigate than other maps on my FairPhone 5.
Osmand isn’t cheap to buy and a lot of people pay for it. Where else do you think their money comes from?
Osmand is slow and too complex on my pixel 9, yet I still use it
Yeah, rendering speed is atrocious. Organic Map renders much smoother.
But only on android … It’s blazingly fast on ios

Osmand rules.

I think it was something like £2 when I bought it. Now it’s £39.99⁉️

They also have a €3/month subscription for ‘hourly’ map updates (and some cloud sync to compensate for Android getting worse).

But is it getting very slow these days. Especially with hourly updates turned on.
@enemenemu
Stock ROM or possibly GrapheneOS?

Yes, graphene
You enabled exploit protection compatibility mode as mentioned in the link?
It’s FOSS and available free on F-Droid. Small app transactions are not paying for that staff list.
