[OSM-talk] Recommendations for OSM mobile app?

[Jo]

I wanted to tell you a few days ago that OsmAnd does all you want. Maybe
write a small manual page for it, for the subset of features your users
need.

I didn't do it then, hoping somebody else would have a better suggestion.

> 6) Ability to also choose Google Maps would be a bonus.
> 7) Ability to route along bike paths (ie, rail trails) would be nice.

> button to download tiles" etc, so the simpler the better.
