    I have Apple Maps, Google Maps, OpenStreets, Organic Maps and Sidekick Pro installed on my phone. Used do use Google until they started getting creepy and Apple Maps started getting decent; then switched to Apple Maps as my default.

    If this goes through, Organic Maps becomes the default with Sidekick for car navigation/recorder.
