Start with the route, not the subscription
OsmAnd offers mobile mapping on Android and iOS, including offline use. Its purchase documentation distinguishes free functionality from paid extensions and explains platform-specific purchases. Decide what you need for an actual trip before paying: the relevant map region, route type and any additional layers are more useful criteria than the longest feature list.
Prepare while connected
Our suggested preparation is to download the region around both the destination and the journey, then inspect a familiar route before travelling. Check that a place you expect to find is visible and that the route matches your intended mode of travel. Keep the destination address somewhere independent of the map app. Offline availability is only useful if the necessary data is already on the device.
Check the exact edition
Use the Android or iOS purchase guide for the edition in your store. Do not assume that every feature or previous purchase transfers between devices without conditions. We have not driven or walked routes with this release, and a mapped path does not establish current access, safety or road conditions. Treat the app as one planning aid and follow local signs and restrictions.
