We’re a global family of volunteers—engineers, designers, community builders and dreamers—all united by one vision: A world in which the top choice for navigation software respects users’ freedom and privacy, and is developed through open collaboration.

From sunrise in Asia to sunset in South America, the contributors collaborate across time zones, languages, and cultures. No salaries, no borders—just pure passion for open data and community‑driven cartography.

Why we love CoMaps:

  • Sleek, privacy‑focused navigation experience that works worldwide, without tracking or ads.
  • We learn from each other, sharing skills and stories along the way.
  • Our work lives online, so anyone can join the adventure at any time.

    I’m not a dev, but donated $90. Please donate, and keep this project alive and thriving.

    Also if I may, I’m hoping we’ll eventually get audio support for directions.

      What do you mean by audio support for directions? There’s turn by turn audio output already iirc

        Now that you say it, I do see some “Voice instructions” support in the settings. I’ll need to figure out how to connect an engine to it to get it working. Thanks! :)

          If you use Android, it should normally just work with the TTS engine set in android settings.

          Unless you don’t have one or your engine does not offer either the map language or english.

          I am currently working on enabling other TTS languages and notifying the user more noticeably about TTS problems.

            I’m on GrapeheneOS, so maybe because I chose not to have Google Assistant setup up on my phone.

    Thanks, you beautiful nerds <3

    Im installing this app on any phone that touches my hands and usually feedback is great. Love the implementation and improvements to track recording/importing/saving etc.

    Just downloaded it as this is my first time hearing of it. Got an old tablet second hand that doesn’t even have a GPS sensor but it’s nice to use for offline maps and it only cost me £15. Used OSMAnd but it runs like shit on this tablet, takes ages to load maps and frequently crashes. Possibly runs out of memory? Think I only have 512MB but not 100% on that.

    Only very briefly had CoMaps but it does seem a lot more responsive and nice to see it defaulted to store maps on my SD card!
