Recommendations on turn-by-turn nav software? - Ashrond - 04-29-2021

Hi all,
just wondering if people can share what software they might be using for turn-by-turn navigation as a stand alone option in openauto?

sofar i am looking at both navit and wayze but, as i will be depending on this to not only guide me, but be usable while driving i am concerned with overall usability and so i thought i would ask what others are doing.

thank you!

My reasoning behind doing this project was so I can use AA and google maps.  I would find a way that you can make this work for you or you may as well be using a standalone GPS.

I looked into Navit, and it's good for what it is. But the moment you download a map for your area, it's outdated going forward.
It seemed more of a hassle compared to just using AA and Maps.

Is Waze available on Linux? I didn't think it was anymore

i have de-googled my  life. AA is NOT an option

With the two options available now in OAP13, of AA or CarPlay - I gave up on adding the GPS hardware and maps needed for Navit.

Wayz via Carplay is really good.
I assume AA is also as good.
