For example, near where I live, if I compare HERE maps with any other provider, such as OpenStreetMap, Apple Maps, Google Maps, or Mapbox, they all show a roundabout that was built more than a year ago. HERE does not.</p>
<p dir="auto">Would it be possible to offer the option of using OpenStreetMap for navigation instead of HERE, at least as an alternative?<br />

<p dir="auto">If you read again, you'll notice that that is not what I said <img src="https://forum.myrouteapp.com/assets/plugins/nodebb-plugin-emoji/emoji/android/1f609.png?v=59d65072cd0" class="not-responsive emoji emoji-android emoji--wink" style="height:23px;width:auto;vertical-align:middle" title=";-)" alt="😉" /></p>

<p dir="auto">Of course, it's the developer that decides what to design. So I see no difference.</p>

<p dir="auto">i do not believe it is a design choice. i believe it is a good developer choice. as i said sdk is from here and that is a developerstool. that tool will not support OSM maps when company Here has it own maps. it would be strange that a developer would use 2 differant SDK's.</p>

<p dir="auto">No, I understood that it has to do with the fact that OSM apparently cannot work properly with the Flutter platform on which the app is based.</p>
