Organic maps is better than Google maps for about everything besides finding businesses. If you're traveling long distances for landmark tourism especially, it's just objectively better IMO.

"all the other"? as far as i'm aware the only ones of note are organic maps and OSMand

I was thinking of maps.me but I understand this is actually a fork of that. There's wikilok for proper trail navigation. And others that are less popular but still use the same base for mapping.
