I use it. It works substantially better than other OSM based map apps imo. My big use case for it is I frequently travel places without cell service and like having a mapping app where I can download whole regions worth of maps to use offline.

I'm also using it for navigation in my car; I find the navigation instructions (especially the way your next turn is shown with an arrow inside the map) much more intuitive than Google maps. It also shows any speed limits whenever there are any while Google maps only did this with additional software last time I tried. It's a super useful app for me.

Google Maps can download whole regions of maps to use offline.

Google maps limits the size of the regions you can download. With Magic Earth, you download entire states. I have several states that I visit regularly pre downloaded so I don't have to worry about downloading specific regions every time I go on a trip to a new area.

Apple Maps lets you download maps offline, also check out Organic Maps which uses OSM - https://apps.apple.com/au/app/organic-maps-offline-hike-bike...

I'm on Android so don't think Apple maps is an option.

As for organic maps, I tried it a while ago and it gave me some rather annoying directions. Maybe they've improved their route finding algorithm since then but I'm not feeling motivated to try it again just yet.

Apple Maps lets you download maps offline? How?

I use osmand and have all my maps saved locally.

I tried osmand when I first switched over and didn't like the quality of directions it gave me. They've possibly gotten better since then but I'm not really feeling motivated to try it again just yet.
