For a new app I need a map like Google Maps or OSMDroid and a location service (get the users location permanently).
The problem ist that the target device does not have any Google Play Services installed. So I think that Google Maps and FusedLocationProvider won't work.
I currently play with OSMDroid. The library is quite old and I think @warwound has no time to further develop it. It seems to work even on my Android 9 device so I can test the app. The target device is Android 4.2.2 and so it should run there too without any problems.
The latest Beta of @warwound's OSMDroid library is version 4.1 if I understand. The Base OSMDroid is currently 6.0.3.
Are there other alternatives for a map? OSMDroid has a location service built in as I can see so it should be quite easy to create my basic app.
Is anybody still using OSMDroid in a current app? Is it still reliable?
Optionally I will need routing capabilities. Since most direction APIs are quite restricted (You can only use Google Directions API if you display the result on a Google Map, others are the same). My current favorite candidate for this is OpenRouteService. Anyone used it in an Android app?
