Description
Organic Maps is a fast, detailed offline map and GPS navigation app for travel, hiking, trekking, and cycling adventures. Plan, import, and record routes, and enjoy smooth guidance without draining your battery or using an internet connection. Explore places and navigate safely during your outdoor adventures and travels around the world. The app offers unlimited map downloads and biweekly updates. OpenStreetMap-based, volunteer-made, privacy-first, 100% offline, and 100% free.
OFFLINE: The app works 100% offline — including search and navigation. You can explore the map and navigate without an internet connection, saving on mobile data and roaming fees. And with no background data transfers, your battery lasts much longer.
FAST: Zooming, search, and route calculations work noticeably fast.
DETAILED & UPDATED: The maps are rich in detail and refreshed twice a month to reflect real-world conditions. Unlike many well-known competitors, they include building labels, benches, hiking paths, and other helpful information.
OPENSTREETMAP-BASED: OpenStreetMap is a wiki-style world map built and maintained by millions of volunteers — locals who know their areas best. This community effort results in highly detailed maps, often more accurate than commercial ones in less-mapped regions. Organic Maps updates its data from OpenStreetMap every two weeks, keeping your maps fresh and reliable. And if you notice something missing, you can add it to OpenStreetMap and help improve the map for everyone.
PRIVACY-FIRST: We don’t collect any data or identifiers. This means there’s no risk of data leaks and no distractions like ads or noisy notifications — just a clean, private map experience.
IMPORTANT FEATURES
EXPLORE PLACES: Search by address, name, or category, discover millions of POIs, and view detailed information such as opening hours, Wikipedia articles, wheelchair accessibility, and other helpful details.
GPS NAVIGATION: Enjoy voice-guided, turn-by-turn directions. Create walking, hiking, cycling, or driving routes — including routes between cities, countries, and multiple waypoints. Find the best routes for your metro journeys and commutes. Android Auto is supported.
HIKING & CYCLING TRAILS FROM AROUND THE WORLD: Enable special map layers to discover popular hiking and cycling routes worldwide, all sourced from OpenStreetMap. Switch between layers to see colored bike and MTB routes, as well as official hiking paths.
PUBLIC TRANSPORT: See public transport route numbers at stops. Live transport schedules and routing are currently in development.
MAP STYLES: Choose map layers that fit your activity — Outdoors, Contour Lines, Hiking, Cycling, or Metro/Subway.
TRACK RECORDER: Record, import, export, and share your routes and favorite places. Supports KML, KMZ, GPX, and GeoJSON formats.

Comments on Organic Maps・Offline Map & GPS for Android
★★★★☆Neil Ormos· Jun 3, 2026
Looks promising so far. I have questions that I think would be answered in a user guide, but I haven't found one: (1) When selecting map regions for download, how can I see the extent of the just-selected region. (The already-downloaded region appears in purple.) (2) Can the app display a list of turns for a route between two points? (3) The navigation feature routes over roads that are closed due to construction. Can I mark those as unavailable, either for myself in the app or for all in OSM?

I was interested in a way to get navigation for OpenStreetMap because its so detailed and cool. Found this app. Amazing! Downloaded offline detailed maps! As long as battery is charged, this map will help. Only thing tho - bike mode route was longer and had fast car roads. Walking route had more appealing roads. Maybe option to convert walking route to bike route? But practically you can just ride a bike with walking mode anyway, just ETA is off. Thx for the app!

When you download full map of India then you will notice that, they don't consider some parts of India that are actually in india.

I wanted to switch from Google Maps, but every location I typed in, it wouldn't find. Not sure if there is something special I need to do, but any attempt to search out of my state just brought up "similar" addresses nearby rather than in the city and state I wanted. "Show On Map" just zoomed out, then gave up. Disappointed because I really wanted a functional, dr-googled option.

Everytime I search an address, nothing shows up or gives me the location to start a route. Been trying for a couple of weeks to no luck. What am I doing wrong?
