CoMaps is powered by OpenStreetMap — the map created by people, for people.
Thousands of local contributors around the world help keep it accurate, up-to-date, and truly community-driven. A mountain trail, a new road, or a hidden café - chances are it was added by someone who knows the area best.
CoMaps builds on this rich, open data to bring you offline navigation— maps that work anywhere.
Thank you to everyone contributing to OpenStreetMap — you make CoMaps possible!
Mission: I added "pedestrians" in place of "hikers" and added "outdoor enthusiasts" at the end (closes #93), and rephrased parts of the statement to sound more natural. Vision: The original statement was ambiguous as to whether it meant libre or gratis by "free"; this clarifies that and also men...
Hi, can anyone explain what the fuzz about organic maps [https://organicmaps.app/] and the fork CoMaps [https://www.comaps.app/]is all about? I mean Organic Maps forked maps.me [http://maps.me] and CoMaps forked Organic Maps. What is the reason behind the last fork? I’m too old to keep track 😩 EDIT: https://openletter.earth/open-letter-to-organic-maps-shareholders-a0bf770c [https://openletter.earth/open-letter-to-organic-maps-shareholders-a0bf770c] Community contributors to Organic Maps have expressed serious concerns about the project’s governance, transparency, and the potential for shareholder profit at the expense of the community.
@zm1 Right now the biggest differences are how the projects are run - CoMaps is about transparency.
Since the split is recent, so far the CoMaps improvements are:
- More detailed/dense altitude contour lines for a number of regions
- Improved map colors
- Improved visibility of certain map objects
- Removed proprietary and remote control parts
- Android: automatic backups for favorites (bookmarks, tracks)
- Android: customizable button on Home Screen
- And many smaller updates
@CoMaps Follow in real time what is being added and corrected where in OpenStreetMap 👇
@CoMaps if you can get your POI data from one known dataset (rather than about 4 or 5 different ones, with the risk duplication and errors) that is relatively easy for endusers to provide corrections and add the speed display on Android Auto I'd definitely start using CoMaps (I did give it a try and it looked promising but not having the speed display is quite a big missing feature)
### What problem would this feature help solve? As of 2025-06-30-22 Android Auto is not showing current driving speed. ### Describe the ideal solution Show current speed in Android Auto along with an indicator when exceeding allowed speed.
@CoMaps in addition to the point about “no algorithms”, within many fediverse softwares (notable Mastodon), people can only search based on hashtag'ed value and not raw text. This is by design.
