Most effective map navigation app? (lemmy.ml)

I've been using Waze for the past year but I just looked it up and realised that it's also owned by Google. I tried using OsmAnd yesterday twice, but the first time I went through a tunnel it just stopped giving directions when I came out of the tunnel (a bug I assume). The second time on the way home, it took me down the wrong exit and I almost ended up at the airport!

Anybody have a better experience with other apps? I've just installed Organic Maps so I'll see how that goes this week.

Another vote for Magic Earth, the other providers do not have addresses past street - level in my location. No complaints at all :)

Thanks, I'll give that a try after Organic Maps. I had the same issue with no street numbers too
