[OSM-talk] Power-user GPS app for Android?

[Ivan Petrushev]

Hi Tanveer,
I tried OsmAnd, but it has a problem recording tracks. If the phone
display is off (device locked) - the track stops. This is happening to
lots of people and it is reported several times in the project issue
tracker for the last few months. Also OsmAnd don't have other map
sources than OSM.
Then I tried Maverick and it has a problem with saving marks. I don't
know if it is because of it is Lite version or a bug, but it can't
create waypoints file on the SD card. I considered buying the Pro
version, but I've read lots of complains in the net about it. The lite
version is limited to something like 2 tracks and 5 waypoints, though.
I've tried several other apps that had even less amount of options.
For example none of them had a setting for frequency of points in
record track by time or travel distance.
About routing - it is not really important. It is just a cool feature
I'd like to have, but now after I tried some more software (including
garmin on symbian) - I prefer to do the routing myself :) Anyway,
following a list of waypoints is a basic form of "routing" that is
useful.
"Look ahead" is a nice feature to have (mapnav had it :) ), but not a must.

Regards,
Ivan.
