Not to discourage usage of OSM at all, but you can absolutely download offline maps on mobile with Google Maps, they've just hidden it a bit. If you tap your account icon in the upper right, a menu pops up that includes offline maps, and it'll let you select boundaries to download.
Its only car routes though, useless for footpaths and public transport
Edit: I may be stupid
It's not only car routes
It has all the path data
