Is there a good Android app for using offline OpenStreetMap maps? My primary goal is to have maps that work when I have no connectivity. I’d like to download the entire US (or perhaps another country if I am traveling) and be able to navigate hiking trails where no cell service exists.

    OSMAnd does just that, I love it.

    EDIT: On Google Play, you get the premium version for free if you make contributions to OSM once in a while. On F-Droid, you get the premium version, for free.

      you’ll get the paid version for free if you make contributions to OSM once in a while

      How does that work?

        If you are an active OSMer you can activate the “OSM edits” plugins, connect it with your OSM account and you can get OsmAnd live for free every month (see official guide).

        It doesn’t, I’m sorry. I just checked and I was wrong - on Google Play, you get the premium version for free if you make contributions to OSM once in a while. On F-Droid, you get the premium version, for free.

        It doesn’t, the paid version is completely free on F-Droid.
