Osmand isn't cheap to buy and a lot of people pay for it. Where else do you think their money comes from?

Osmand is slow and too complex on my pixel 9, yet I still use it

Osmand is slow

Yeah, rendering speed is atrocious. Organic Map renders much smoother.

Have you tried the "new" OpenGL renderer? It fares much better for me. (Actually, maybe it's the default now?)

@balsoft

It's faster, but still incredibly slow.
