Regarding OsmAnd:

The download limit is in the free version on Google Play to encourage users to upgrade to the paid version and so to support development.

Since OsmAnd is open source a custom build would not have this limit. Such a custom build can be found at https://f-droid.org/repository/browse/?fdid=net.osmand.plus Installing F-Droid itself could also be beneficial, from their site: "F-Droid is an installable catalogue of FOSS (Free and Open Source Software) applications for the Android platform. The client makes it easy to browse, install, and keep track of updates on your device."

If you use the F-Droid build of OsmAnd I suggest donating to the OsmAnd project to support development. (Please note that I'm neither involved in F-Droid nor in OsmAnd.)

For Disaster crisis like the Haiyan Typhoon, it is important to collect
geolocated data about vital infrastructures and the OSM contributors
cannot do this remotely. To do this, we have to find innovative ways to
collect data adapted to humanitarians and various people that circulate
in the area.

On the Typhoon Haiyan Wiki page
(https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Typhoon_Haiyan), we are promoting
OSMAND. An Experimental hourly updated Philippines map for OsmAnd
<http://osmand.net/> is available here: http://osmd.ch/haiyan/. Many
thanks to the developpers that contribute to offer such softwares and
services in the context of these humanitarian actions.

On the talk-ph list, a contributor mentions the limit of 10 downloads of
maps. Is this limit in the Application itselft, and if so, could it be
removed for downloads from http://osmd.ch/haiyan/ ?

Regard
Pierre

OsmAnd can only be downloaded using you android phone. there's non for
ios. for the free version, you can download only 10 times whether maps
or add ons like tts but this is what i noticed.  i downloaded the
application and installed it. i copoied the downloaded map to my ext
sdcard coz i needed to reformat my cell phone. after reformatting my
cellphone, i reinstall OsmAnd and allow me to download 10 time like its
my first time to dl from what they allowed, on top of what i have dl before
