[Organic Maps](https://organicmaps.app) is a free Android & iOS offline maps app for travellers, tourists, drivers, hikers, and cyclists.
It uses crowd-sourced [OpenStreetMap](https://www.openstreetmap.org) data and is developed with love by the creators of **MapsWithMe** (later renamed to **Maps.Me**) and by our community.
No ads, no tracking, no data collection, no crapware. Your [donations](https://organicmaps.app/donate/) and positive reviews motivate and inspire us, thanks ❤️!
