• In 2023 Organic Maps got its first million users

  Had the same experience, and ended up being satisfied with Magic Earth[1]. I tried more or less every major navigation service (paid and "free"), and I ended up sticking with it.

• Routes partially or completely disappear

  I spent a TON of time accurately making some long routes (on gaiagps.com) and now I see most are gone completely and others have large segments missing ! Anyone else have this happen ? (OSX and IOS). I opened a ticket but no response yet. Source: about 2 years ago

• Windows (web) version is useless

  Hey u/SolidGoldUnderwear, sorry for the trouble. Please try clearing the cache on your browser. The easiest way to do this is to hold down the shift key and refresh the gaiagps.com browser window. Source: about 2 years ago

• Windows (web) version is useless

  Hey u/Puss_Lips, sorry about that. It may be a caching issue. The edited route should show if you clear your browser cache. The easiest way to do this is to hold down the Shift key and click the refresh button on the gaiagps.com browser window. If that doesn't work, would you mind contacting Support so we can gather more info? You can do that here: https://help.gaiagps.com/hc/en-us/requests/new. Source: about 2 years ago
