Google Maps alternative needed. I got my export. I have 152 kmz files, maps for certain cities/regions. They look like this, I have continued with the old Google Maps icons. I have OsmAnd and I have imported kml files in the past and I have just tried it with kmz of my next destination, but all the points look the same. I have Marble Virtual Globe and that one displays the Google icons (I do not need them to be Google Icons, can be any set of free icons) but that is a desktop application, I need one on my phone. I do not want to change all the icons manually in OsmAnd. Is there a better Maps app for what I need? Is there an OsmAnd solution?

Edit: Thank you all for your suggestions. I am going to test them in the afternoon.

Bookmark import - Icon matching

### What problem would this feature help solve? Currently, when bookmarks are imported from, e.g., google maps, even if they match the coordinates of the OSM/CoMaps node exactly, they do not receive the suitable icon/marker in the map. When I export it from the map itself then the item in the km...

@regendans Yes it seems to be the problem I have, but no solution so far...
