Awesome, I've been looking for a hiking app.
-
Osmand is still better for hiking, despite the flaws it has otherwise.
-
I just started hiking semi regularly, would osmand be good for finding easy trails you could take a stroller on?
-
I'm not sure. I usually find trails on Komoot and then set waypoints in Osmand to match the trail.
-
Looking at komoot looks pretty cool, so it's like a one time buy for the maps?
Kind of sucks because I live right at the tip between three regions haha but beats a subscription if it's a one time purchase
Edit: the free pack is actually covers the area I'm most interested in so I'll check it out
-
I just plan my hike on the Komoot website and then use Osmand to route and record my track. I have the map configured to highlight official hiking routes and benches, so I can plan breaks.

What makes it better?
-
Highlight user defined points of interest (viewpoints, benches, picnic tables,...) as well as to display officially defined hiking routes in a different color.
Maybe it's possible but I didn't see how to do it but in Osmand I can easily set multiple waypoints, so viewpoint in 3km, waterfall in another 3km, etc.
IMO Osmand is more of a toolbox than a mere navigator. OTOH performance is dismal. Everything is stuttering all the time whereas Organic Maps is smooth. So I have both installed for different use cases.
