Dang. I have graphene os. But I still use Google maps :/
Use organic maps
Organic maps, as in an app?
Yes, you can find it on zap.store or F-droid
Cool. Thank you! :) I am going to give it a go and ensure it works before deleting google maps. But now I have to think on how to solve this dilemma. A few months ago I had an emergency scare situation and given the fact that I often travel alone it was suggested that I share my location real time with a trusted friend. I felt it gave me a sense of security. I did that with Google maps. It did feel good to know someone close knows where I am as my habit of checking in is inconsistent.
