    Default Please Advise: Navigation app designed for pedestrians

    Hello,

    It is usual to get lost in a city you don't know. But even if you have a smartphone, most of the navigation apps although excellent for drivers, won't be very helpful for a pedestrian, telling you to head north or south...
    Indeed, I use Waze and Tomtom when traveling in the city. Arrived at almost destination, I get out of the car and try to go to my address, my smartphone displays the map but, it is unable to tell me the direction.

    Could you recommend an app (Android 12) designed or working for pedestrians?
    Regards

    The one I use is OsmAnd+
    Great for getting around in the city and for hiking.
    Can be used for driving and for bicycle.

    It uses OSM maps that are very detailed.

    There are many others out there just google them in the google store
