Comaps, works completely offline, is open-source and privacy-friendly.

I wish Comaps would download maps differently, at least through an option. Given the sheer size of the maps in my area, and my phone, I have to manage space efficiently.

As a good end-user, don't ask me what I'd want, I have no idea and would throw random thoughts at you.

Use SD card.

Yes, Comaps, Organic maps, Magic Earth are much better alternatives. Also Sygic, but as it uses TomTom maps what haven’t been updated for years in some places, you have to be careful.

I have TomTom maps of UK, Ireland and the Netherlands, and those are updated constantly. In fact, I get the best results with TomTom compared to Google, except for Places. It's less bloated, it knows about unpaved roads (which is pretty vital i.m.o).
