I gave it a shot but without public transport navigation it's pretty useless for me. Also I don't enjoy being bugged to create an account or pay 19โฌ for a "premium user badge" just to make that "please give us money" button go away that's permanently covering part of the map.
Great, another alternative to check out
Amazing. They are the best app for hiking (Komoot might be nice for planning, but nobody has the paths mapped so well - middle of nowhere, north of Sweden, Georgia, Mauritius, everywhere ti had silly small paths mapped for me).
I hope they can also be an option in the city. I don't drive, but I need to check their public transport coverage, and accuracy of opening hours ^โฟ^
Honestly, most of their data outside of Czechia is just OpenStreetMaps, so you could use many other apps that are actually opensource: OsmAnd, Organic Maps, etc.
The thing for me about mapy is not that they have fantastic database but layout of their maps - it's one of a few easily readable maps out there and unfortunately, especially for biking/trekking. I've tried alternatives but they're miserable most of the time.
