I used it for the first time last week on a hike. It worked, but not intuitively at all. I had downloaded a GPX file which I imported in Osmand, and before I got the navigation working I had inadvertly added two waypoints.
Yeah it doesn't have the friendliest user interface, but it does have an enormous amount of functionality when you eventually find the menu you are looking for.
