CoMaps is an open source, community-developed navigation app for walkers, drivers, and cyclists. The app offers worldwide offline maps based on OpenStreetMap data, and navigation with privacy - no location tracking, no data collection, and no ads. Most features operate without a data connection, ideal for travel on distant hiking trails or locations with poor connections. The app is free and is open-source software, with priority for community development and collaboration.

• Turn-by-turn walking, cycling, and car navigation with voice guidance
• Fast offline search on the map

OSM Editing

The built in OSM Editor of CoMaps focuses on points of interest (POIs) and allows updating or adding places like restaurants or shops. Moreover, the deletion of a POI can be requested by submitting a note. The functionality is intentionally kept simple, so people with out detailed knowledge about OSM can use it as well.

Just as the rest of the app, the editor works without an internet connection. Editing is done based on the offline map data and changes are automatically uploaded to OSM later on, when a network connection is available again.

Privacy policy

The app developers pledge to only request the bare minimum of permissions necessary to deliver the offline maps, and to ensure:

• No ads
• No tracking
• No data collection
• No registration
• No spam emails
• No bloatware

Developer

CoMaps was founded in 2025 by former Organic Maps contributors. The Organic Maps codebase was forked due to concerns about the project's governance, transparency, and the potential for shareholder profit at the expense of the community. The CoMaps project was created, focusing on privacy, performance and community.
