@d7f4cce1 I will gladly switch to the Organic Maps if they have few features I use daily.
1. On the bus stops/train stations there's no drive plan displayed.
2. There's no (or I just can't find it) option to easily import my data like points, favorites, etc from the g-maps.
3. Night mode is an unusable nightmare! I can't see anything at all when this option is turned on, on my amoled. I like and mostly use dark themes, modes because of my eyes, but this particular one is totally messed up.

Don't add too many features. Nobody needs a second #OsmAnd. Don't get me wrong – I love both OsmAnd and OrganicMaps, but I need them to remain different.
@75cf6934 @f275d986 we‘ll keep OM simple, don’t worry. Nobody needs another OSMand.
@d7f4cce1 @75cf6934 Yes, but people need some basic functionalities. Typing by hand hundreds of poi's okay, it is doable, but try to do it by yourself. Simple does not mean that something must be primitive.
@f275d986 @75cf6934 importing a bunch of KML or GPX bookmarks is simple, nobody forces you to type them manually.
@f275d986 1. Public transport is planned. It’s a big effort that requires a lot of resources and online services too. With your donations we can do that!
2. There are several instructions in the internet how to export your data from Google Maps and convert it to KML to import into Organic Maps. 3. Dark mode was done for drivers at night, not for the daylight dark theme lovers. We plan to add a separate map style for the daylight. You can help to develop it ;-)

Ad2. Okay, I haven't seen this anywhere. Thnx for the info.
Ad3. Even in the total darkness I can barely see anything on the screen. Black or dark-grey letters on the very dark backgrounds is a not an particularly wise or cool design idea. Even an amoled 6"+ screen size and full display brightness does not helps. The dark/night mode is still a piece of usability junk. Sorry, but it is as it is. Perhaps a bit different color palette would be a way better choice? Seems so.
@f275d986 please propose better colors, we’re open to any help. There are several related issues on our Github.
