It is way way lighter weight and is overall a better experience. I use osmand for routing because the voice is much better tuned (OM just says barely-useful things like "turn left" instead of "turn left at Broadway". I think both have their uses. If the voice was better I would use OM exclusively.

Organic Map’s voice turning instructions were just recently updated to include the street name (at least in the iOS TestFlight, not sure if it’s in the official release yet). This was something that was preventing me from fully switching over but since this change it is much more usable imo

Oh yay! Happy times. The fdroid version doesn't have that yet but I look forward to the update.

I see, that's very useful for lower end devices then. If I ever need voice, I'll stick to OSMAnd then for now.
