Strange, it's been very very reliable for many years, for me. Did you use OsmAnd?

[–] tim-clark@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago (6 children)

No, I used solely on my phone. It worked fine at home and looked promising. When I went out 2 days later it wouldn't load anything, was on cell only with excellent 5g data. Tried for about an hour and it just wouldn't load a map.

But what app did you use to access OSM and download the maps for offline use... was it a web browser? OsmAnd? Vespucci?

[–] tim-clark@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Osmand+ paid for and it doesn't do it main purpose of loading a map. I will not be providing QA to them since I paid for the product, the product doesn't work I'm not helping them fix a product they sold me.
