At least in my experience, OpenStreetMap has far, far superior depictions of hiking trails. Edge case I know, but still, it demonstrates that Google maps does not actually reign fully supreme and can be bested.
Haven’t used google maps in years. OpenStreetMap rules. It may not have all the POIs but it does just fine for navigation and stuff, and I can find addresses of businesses the old fashioned way, using their website.
Just about every map works fine these days. Google tends to route the inefficient routes once you learn your city. Ignoring it tends to be faster, then at that point, you don’t “need” map apps at all.
Lets be real though, nobody comes close on the quality of Google Maps. Everyone needs to contribute to OSM.

Osm is superior for hiking and very local data. Google is still a requirement for navigating Toronto traffic/construction.
