I use both google mapy and Organic maps, while the organic maps do not have all the information google has, for simple trips and finding restaurants (no reviews) it's perfect. Just simple and not cluttered maps with offline maps.
You should probably check Comaps instead of Organic Maps.
Agree with you completely, but the explanation is probably in order.
CoMaps is a fairly recent fork of Organic Maps. There were questions being raised about Organic's governance - dodgy partnerships, misuse of funds, not being truly open-source due to keeping core libraries private - and so CoMaps was created to 'do it properly'. The app functionality is basically exactly the same, so moving over is completely painless.
