In addition to not working in remote areas (and I have used OSMAnd to<br>
navigate in areas with no cell service, while watching apple maps on<br>
someone's iPhone totally fail), there's another issue, which is<br>
informing the user that their data will be sent over the web. That<br>
could earn your app the "tracks and reports your activity" antifeature<br>
on f-droid :-)<br>
