	tl;dr: CoMaps is a free, open-source offline maps and navigation app forked from Organic Maps and Maps.me, using OpenStreetMap data. It offers GPS-based search and routing without mobile data, emphasizes privacy (no tracking or data collection, audited by Exodus), and is optimized for battery efficiency. Development is community-driven via Codeberg.
	HN Discussion: ↑Positive user experiences with CoMaps for navigation, biking, and map updates ↓Suspicion that CoMaps promotion involves coordinated trash-talking of Organic Maps ↑Concerns about Organic Maps governance justify the CoMaps fork ~OSM-based apps suffer from poor search quality and lack user-generated content •Questions about availability, layer/plugin standards, and comparisons with Organic Maps
