No, I just say the paid version of all purpose application should it have
included.
The question is, is it all purpose application usable for car navigation,
or, is it a car navigation app with all purpose features ?
For the former, I may be right,
for the latter, you may be right .
Who does not want contours probably wants just map navigation and the
contours could be switched off. But just for that, car navigation offline
applications may be better, especially for long distance rides.

Hi,
so would it be better if OsmAnd integrated contours in the base package and
increased the price for everybody, even those who do not need contours?
Also increase the binary size and append unneeded items to the UI?
It is good that there are plugins that you can disable and they no longer
clutter the UI for those that do not need them.

I do agree with your post,
but it is IMHO not much related to
what I have written.
My complain was not about extra price,
but rather about not being included
in the application.
For a car navigation, it does not make much sense to have it, and other car
navigations do not have it either.
But OSMAnd is not presented as a solely car navigation application, but as
all purpose one, including outdoor and off-road activities.

For such an extremely useful app you just pay a few euros or dollars, and
that just once! Each month really time consuming calculations have to be
done to transform the OSM maps into a format that can be used by OSMAND.
And it's not just me who downloads several GB each month when updating my
maps, and servers for such a huge amount of data are not cheap.
I have paid MUCH MORE money for my Garmin device (years ago) and even
after dozens of firmware updates it doesn't work flawlessly.
Can you image how it feels if you are in an unknown city and your device
hangs and has to restarted by a complicate procedure which takes about 20
minutes?
Have you ever made a bug report to companies like Garmin which has been
resolved in a timely manner?
I have never had such an experience with OSMAND!
So, I am very grateful to the developers of OSMAND!!!

Is not it a little weird,
if one realizes that
OSMAnd is considered
an all-purpose-to-be map/nav application?
Even if one buys the OSMand+,
such a basic map app feature for non-car a/o off-road cases
is not part of the application,
but must be bought as the extra plugin...

Yes, the Contours plugin is a separate purchase and download on the Play
store.
