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.

@rhelune I don't know if this is good for you, but it works on smartphones ... (at least, my smartphone has it)

@lydiaconwell Thanks! Got the app Magic Earth, but it wants my credit card data for the free trial. Can't find kmz file import. If I do not find something free that works I will activate the trial to see if it supports the import.

@rhelune That doesn't sound right that you'd need to put in card details. Is the app by Magic Lane International BV?
