You can use Android apps with #Wayland on the #Librem5. But personally, I have no experience with Wayland.

For navigation (#openstreetmap based), I use #PureMaps (https://flathub.org/en/apps/io.github.rinigus.PureMaps) and just looking at GNOME maps (https://flathub.org/en/apps/org.gnome.Maps).

Indeed, it is like using whatever could run on the #Linux desktop. Ideally, adaptive applications:

@zwarf I am happy with #PureMaps on the #Librem5 on #PostmarketOS.

Does anyone know of the general development of #navigation software for #mobile #Linux devices like the #Librem5 ?
#PureMaps somehow runs, but it is not a great experience performance wise and the development is not super active anymore. I saw a discussion once that #OrganicMaps also tries to make a mobile Linux version, but I can't find any update there either. Are there any plans for #GnomeMaps to add navigation features?

It might be just me, but at some point in the last 1-2 years, all the #KDE apps I use on my #Librem5 got noticeably slower. This includes #PureMaps and #KDEItinerary. It feels like some sort of graphics acceleration shenanigans: Map scrolling in PureMaps used to be smooth, and now is almost unusably laggy. Even just scrolling up and down an itinerary or pushing a button is slower than a comparable GTK app (Tuba, Gnome Maps, etc...).

Oh great and powerful hive mind: How might I seek out incantations that could fix this?

Today I tested navigation on #OnePlus6t with #postmarketOS and #PureMaps.

The start wasn't promising. It took about 2 minutes for the device to pinpoint my location via GPS.

After that slow start, it was smooth sailing. GPS tracking was very precise and comparable to OsmAnd. Although while stationary the GPS isn't the most accurate, I can confirm that once moving, navigation works perfectly.

@peja Great! I recently did a navigation test with #PureMaps on my #Librem5 as well.

I confirm that it worked very well.

Todavía me preguntaba por qué la navegación no me funcionaba (PineTime + Amazfish en #UBports). Al final, resultó ser AppArmor en Pure Maps (ahora hay una versión sin restricciones de la aplicación en la tienda). La navegación debe estar habilitada en la configuración de #Amazfish, y los recursos (imágenes de navegación) deben cargarse en #PineTime.

Attached: 1 image I was still wondering why navigation wasn’t working for me (PineTime + Amazfish on #UBports). In the end, it turned out to be AppArmor in Pure Maps (there is now an unconfined version of the app in the store). Navigation must be enabled in the #Amazfish settings, and the resources (navigation images) must be uploaded to the #PineTime.

I use a #Librem5 as my daily phone:

- Full device disk encryption with #LUKS
- #PureMaps for navigation. GNOME Maps for looking, searching on a map. Both #OpenStreetMap based.
- WiFi just works
- In the past I used Mullvad VPN, but recently not tested any more.
- Synchronization via ssh/scp. I could very probably also use Nextcloud client, but did not test that.
- Signal Desktop
- #Fractal for #Matrix
- I use vim (mostly over ssh)

I tested my #Librem 5 running #Crimson #PureOS the last days with #PureMaps turn by turn navigation in the car.

Note that due to a bug (for which a fix is in the pipeline) I had to enable manually gnss-share first:

sudo systemctl status gnss-share.service

After that PureMaps worked flawlessly for navigation up to speeds of 130 km/h.

Unfortunately, the voice instruction volume is a little to low for me though.
