You're right, of course. Whenever I evangelize for OsmAnd, what always surprises me is that nobody has even heard of it. Must be for a reason.

The developers seem a serious bunch, the issue tracker has been actively curated for years (although it's snowed under). They have a subscription business model, which is a bit opaque but seems to be functional. And yet everyone always has the same complaint about the app: terrible UX.

If only the Organic Maps people had contributed their undoubted skills to improving OsmAnd.
