After the news that Google maps will rename the gulf of Mexico to the gulf of America I finally decided to change maps app(not confirmed).

What recommendations do you have? What to look out for?

    You can use GMAPS VW, an app that uses the Google Maps web version. It cannot provide navigation, but it allows you to find any address just like on Google Maps, while maintaining your privacy.

    Then, you click on “Share”, copy the link, and paste it into another app called GeoShare. This app converts a Google Maps link into GPS coordinates.

    Finally, you copy and paste the GPS coordinates into Organic Maps, which will locate the place for you.

    All of these apps are open source.
