Can you suggest me a power-user GPS application for Android? I've recently switched from my Sony Ericsson K800 to Android and really miss MapNav. Most of the android apps I've tried are really naive - there is a map, and there is a dot representing your position, and this is all. Some of them have

Hello Ivan, I use a number of apps. I customize my home screen, so it's very fast to switch between them. For recording tracks, I use My Tracks (a Google product, very mature). For recording house numbers I made my own app. (I'm currently adding 150 new addresses each day, nearly a thousand if

I think OsmAnd will do most of this. I used to use Andnav2 for in-the-field maps but have recently replaced with osmand: this has a number of features including OpenStreetBugs viewing and reporting, and I believe (haven't tried) will allow you to enter POIs too. For track recording I use

Only speaking on my own behalf (and not for anyone else involved with Vespucci), I've recently been doing some work on Vespucci. Vespucci is an Android OSM editor, primarily online, although you can download a chunk of data and then work on it without an internet connection. Its GPS logging

That's a pretty long and very specific list of requirements for a single app. As others have said, you will probably need to make use of multiple apps to cover all of this functionality. One app I haven't seen mentioned yet is OSMTracker. It is useful as a surveying aid. It records traces and

I don't think these are too much features for one program. MapNav had 99% of the requirements and it was just a JAVA app for dumbphones. I thought that there would be much more advanced apps for Android that offers such a rich programming options and powerful hardware. I tried OruxMaps and it
