Huawei Will Be Using Here Instead of Google for Maps

https://www.forbes.com/sites/zakdoffman/2020/04/26/huawei-surprises-millions-of-users-with-stunning-google-alternative/amp/?__twitter_impression=true

I always prefered Here over Google Maps. I don’t have any on my phone but when I need one, I use Here.

Anyone else use it?

PS: it’s full of trackers (FB and Google): https://reports.exodus-privacy.eu.org/en/reports/com.here.app.maps/latest/

Well, the Exodus page says otherwise.
And ClassyShark and Aurora Store also.
I wonder if someone can tell about some map application that doesn’t have any tracks at all (I couldn’t find in the forum :slight_smile:)

OsmAnd~ does the job for me.

I’ll give it a try.
Thanks

@facb69, sorry I am using the website not the app of Herewego.
@Vaughan of course ! As an app I’m using Osmand (discovered at my beginnings with F-Droid) from a long time, even forget it :crazy_face:

WhatsApp is copying your whole adress book to his own servers. Including all notes, address, EVRYTHING!!!
And they don’t much trackers, because they are monitoring your connection

Just use built in Maps if using /e/, otherwise Maps is just Magic Earth for those not on /e/. Not open-source but they swear by privacy (if you can trust their word) But it does perform nicely and found it better than osmand+. Though I am using Streetcomplete app from f-droid to help make osmand+ much better.
