It took a few months preparation but I deleted all my google accounts today, and it feels good.

      If you can contribute, that would be great. Especially business names and addresses. The best thing I have found to do is get an address from a place via the internet and plug that into gps-coordinates.net and use the first 7 numbers like 31.12345 -82.12345 into osmand when navigating. Then when i arrive i add it to osm so nobody can claim i stole data from another mapping service.

          I’ve tried them and prefer Magic Earth.

          Also, you can contribute to make the maps more complete with Street Complete.

            Magic Earth is proprietary FYI. Good privacy policy and good service, only real problem I have is its not FOSS.
