Have you tried open street maps? I suggest organic street maps for your phone

[-] leekleak@lemmy.world 97 points 3 months ago

Organic Maps are great, however if you're looking for shops and restaurants (or rather their reviews) Google Maps are second to none.

OSM can technically replace Gmaps for shops and restaurants if enough people were using and updating it.

However, Gmaps in unbeatable for public transportation :( no alternative at all

In Europe you can usually download an app for the public transit in that specific country/city. However, Google Maps is the only one that will show you how to get to a specific address (not just the train/bus station).

I use Transportr for that. It integrates with the different local metro systems. Works great in Sweden at least🙂

Cool, thanks for the tip!
