Switch to HERE WeGo for your mapping needs. Read more here.
I tried them and was pleasantly surprised, also tried a bunch of OpenStreetMap based options but they work better for browsing than navigating in my opinion. Especially for looking up public transport options HERE WeGo does a much better job.

I've switched to HERE for navigation too. I've used Citymapper for public transport both at home and on holiday and think it's great.

Nice suggestion, I'll keep it in mind when I find HERE or Organic Maps lacking. Tried to look into their business model, which seems to be advertising and selling tickets but they are very open about it which I like. Unlike here, which give me the 'everything is free and we're not gonna tell you how we can afford to do that'-vibe.
I see it's from the UK so if you want @bettertecheu@lemmy.world, you could add it to the overview.

I will look into Citymapper. Thanks.
HERE is owned by a handful of billion euro companies, like VW, BMW and Mercedes. My guess is they don't need to make money on their consumer apps, but use them to improve their data for their in-car products.

Yeah, what I think too. Rather support FOSS but in this case an eu corpo just does a much better job. Kuddos to you for taking in all these suggestions here, keep up the good work!
