Happy New Year!

We are continuing this good tradition for the sixth time. At the end of each year we write New Year Resolutions and our plans for the next one.

This year has been difficult for our company, as most of our team, based in Ukraine πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡¦ ❀️, works in war conditions. But despite all the difficulties, we worked according to the goals specified in the previous resolution (Resolutions 2023), and you can compare the results in our report. Briefly, in 2023, we've introduced a free subscription for cross-platform named OsmAnd Start, completely redesigned the terrain and 3D section, made a big contribution to widgets and much more.

2024 New Year Resolutions​

β˜› Let's start with the to-do list for 2024, and below you can check again how a similar list was completed (or not completed πŸ˜‰) in 2023.

Hello everybody!

This article is about one of the general OsmAnd killer-feature - Online maps plugin. This Plugin allows us to enable and add other map sources for OsmAnd. All of these sources are raster maps.

Raster maps come from various sources and they complement OpenStreetMap data, and sometimes they are the only source. By combining map layers, you can get the best picture on your screen:

  • Android
  • iOS
