  • It is hard to move away from maps completely but for pure navigation there are many alternatives. From the FOSS world, there are 2 I would recommend.

    Organic Maps - fairly clean and focused app mainly around navigation

    OsmAnd~ - a more fleshed out map app. Easily see hiking routes, ski routes, etc. This is the one I am trying to use at the moment.

    Still doesn’t help solve the google review for restraunts and shops etc, but it is a step in the right direction.


  • I use my phone for quick notes on the go, or creating lists of information I want to be able to re order and edit.

    I use pen and paper mainly for brain dumps. Getting a stream of thoughts out of my head and on to paper. I find trying to use a phone for this will lead to some distraction and the thought will go before I capture all of the info.

    I also use pen and paper when studying a topic, especially for a test, I find the simple of act of writing the information down is enough to cement it in my brain, even if I never go back and read those notes.
