komoot

Germany· Outdoor Navigation and Route Planning App

Needs review

Shortlist komoot when you need German-operated, sport-specific outdoor route planning with offline voice navigation and strong bike-computer/e-bike sync. Skip when you need urban multi-modal maps only (prefer Google Maps), a pure training/social fitness network (Strava), or a hard no-US-subprocessor stack—komoot discloses AWS EU hosting plus multiple US analytics/support tools.

OsmAnd

Netherlands· Offline Maps and Navigation

Needs review

Shortlist OsmAnd when you need a Dutch-entity, GPLv3 offline OSM map and multi-mode navigation client with deep plugins (topo, Wikipedia, GPX, OSM edit) on Android/iOS. Skip when you need polished urban multi-modal search like Google Maps, sport-social outdoor planning like komoot, or a hard no-US-cloud stack—OsmAnd Cloud uses Amazon plus Scaleway, and web checkout uses FastSpring (US).

komoot

Sport-specific outdoor route planning
Planner generates and customizes routes for hiking, road cycling, mountain biking, gravel, running, and related sports using OpenStreetMap-based maps and Graphhopper-attributed routing. Supports off-grid connectors where mapped paths do not exist. Free basic map overlays; advanced sport-specific map styles are Premium.
Turn-by-turn voice navigation with offline regions
Mobile apps provide turn-by-turn voice navigation and regional offline map downloads for unlocked areas. You can plan worldwide for free, but navigate/record only inside unlocked regions. One free region on signup; further regions via one-time map purchases or Premium worldwide access.
Maps products plus Premium subscription model
Core navigation ships as one-time Single Region, Region Bundle, or World Pack map unlocks with lifelong map updates and GPX download. Premium subscription adds multi-day planner, personal Collections, Live Tracking, weather-on-route, 3D maps, sport-specific maps, and komoot map on compatible Garmin devices—without putting retail prices on this page.
Garmin, bike computer, e-bike, and watch sync
Documented integrations include Garmin (Courses Sync, Live Sync, Premium komoot map on supported devices), Wahoo and other GPS bike computers, Bosch and other e-bike displays, and smartwatches (Apple Watch, Suunto, COROS, Wear OS, and more). Useful when the phone is not the primary field display.
Community Highlights, Collections, and privacy zones
Users share Highlights, tips, photos, and curated Collections; privacy zones on the website can hide private start/end locations on completed activities. Global Heatmaps use aggregated anonymized tracks with opt-out and start/finish trimming per support documentation.

OsmAnd

Offline OpenStreetMap vector maps on device
Download country/region OSM vector maps to local storage for browsing, POI search, and navigation without mobile data. Free tier limits map downloads (official docs: seven); Maps+/OsmAnd+ unlocks unlimited regional packs. Manual map install avoids OsmAnd server UUID download telemetry.
Multi-mode turn-by-turn navigation
On-device routing with voice guidance, re-routing, optional lane guidance, ETA, and intermediate points. Documented profiles include car/truck/motorcycle, bicycle/MTB, pedestrian, public transport, ski, horse, boat, train, moped, and straight-line options, plus online and BRouter paths.
Topography, Wikipedia, and outdoor plugins
Plugin system adds contour lines, hillshade/slope, 3D relief (Pro), offline Wikipedia/Wikivoyage, trip GPX recording, nautical and ski styles, OSM editing, external sensors, and vehicle OBD metrics. Several layers require Maps+/OsmAnd+ or Pro rather than the free download quota alone.
Android Auto and CarPlay guidance
Official navigation docs cover Android Auto and CarPlay integration for in-vehicle map guidance. Android Auto support is tied to Google Play distribution; Huawei AppGallery Maps+ installs are documented as without Android Auto.
GPLv3 client with Maps+ and Pro packaging
Application source is on GitHub under GPLv3 (app-store exception; visuals CC BY-NC-ND). Product access is freemium and ad-free: free core nav, Maps+/OsmAnd+ for unlimited maps and paid plugins, OsmAnd Pro for Cloud sync, hourly Live updates, and full Pro features—without retail prices on this page.

Assurance & compliance: komoot vs OsmAnd
Assurance & compliance	komoot	OsmAnd
Independent security / no-logs audit	Not found No public independent security or no-logs audit report found on primary pages; privacy policy mentions a vulnerability reward program only.	Not found Mission/privacy claim not to store geolocation for third parties; no public independent audit PDF found
ISO 27001	Not found No komoot ISO 27001 certificate located on imprint/privacy/product pages in this research pass.	Not found
SOC 2 / SOC 3	Not found No public SOC 2/3 report found for komoot on primary sources reviewed.	Not found
GDPR / EU data protection	Vendor claimed German controller (komoot GmbH); privacy policy cites GDPR legal bases, data-subject rights, DPO contact via support form; third-country transfers described via adequacy decisions/SCCs. Not legal advice.	Vendor claimed EU (NL) controller OsmAnd B.V.; privacy policy describes processing, UUID controls, Cloud, FastSpring; confirm for your use case
US CLOUD Act exposure (indicative)	Partial EU entity and no known US parent, but AWS EMEA hosting plus disclosed US-group processors (Zendesk, Google Firebase/Analytics, customer.io, Hotjar, Datadog, Meta SDK, Adjust). Not a low-exposure / claimed-safe assessment. Not legal advice.	Partial EU entity / no known US parent, but privacy policy names Amazon for OsmAnd Cloud and FastSpring (US) for web checkout. Indicative only—not legal advice.
Data processing agreement (B2B)	Not found No public self-serve B2B DPA package found; product is primarily consumer SaaS. Privacy policy is the public processing description.	Not found No public self-serve B2B DPA package found; consumer Terms emphasize private non-commercial use
EU AI Act	Not applicable Consumer outdoor navigation/planning product; not marketed as an AI system under the AI Act in sources reviewed.	Not applicable Privacy policy states user data is not used to train external AI/ML models; product is maps/navigation, not an AI system offering

Considerations & known limitations: komoot vs OsmAnd
Considerations & known limitations	komoot	OsmAnd
Multiple US-group SaaS and analytics processors	Medium Even with German HQ and claimed EU AWS hosting, privacy policy discloses Zendesk, Google, customer.io, Hotjar, Datadog, Meta, and Adjust. Buyers with strict no-US-tool policies need a different architecture.	Non indicato
Post-acquisition ownership and continuity	Medium Bending Spoons (Italy) closed acquisition of komoot in March 2025. Roadmap, packaging, and support quality may change under the new group; re-check commercial terms after ownership transitions.	Non indicato
No public ISO/SOC or independent security audit	Medium Enterprise assurance artifacts (ISO 27001, SOC 2, independent audit PDFs) were not found on public pages. Consumer outdoor use may tolerate this; regulated org procurement may not.	Non indicato
Navigation gated by unlocked map regions	Low Planning is global, but navigate/record requires unlocked regions (one free, then paid maps or Premium). Unexpected region boundaries can block field use if access is not purchased in advance.	Non indicato
Consumer product, not documented enterprise platform	Low No public self-host, fleet admin, or B2B DPA path found. Fine for individual outdoor use; weak fit for org-mandated controlled deployments.	Non indicato
Amazon Cloud and FastSpring (US) on optional paths	Non indicato	Medium Core offline navigation can stay on-device, but Pro Cloud sync names Amazon storage and website purchases use FastSpring (US controller). Orgs with strict no-US-processor policies must avoid Cloud/web checkout paths or get written subprocessor commitments.
No public ISO/SOC or B2B DPA	Non indicato	Medium No ISO 27001, SOC 2, or independent audit report found on primary pages. Procurement that requires signed DPA and assurance reports must ask the vendor or choose a certified commercial map stack.
Free map download quota	Non indicato	Low Free tier limits map downloads (official Android docs: seven). Multi-region travelers typically need Maps+/OsmAnd+ or Pro for unlimited packs and richer layers.
Non-commercial Terms of Use	Non indicato	Medium Terms license private/personal use and require written consent for commercial integration. GPL store-distribution exception also constrains redistribution of modified store apps.
OSM data completeness varies by region	Non indicato	Low Map quality depends on OpenStreetMap coverage and contributor activity. Strong in many EU areas; verify critical routes offline before remote travel.

Idoneità

komoot

Best fit when

Hikers, cyclists, MTB and gravel riders who need trail-aware planning rather than car GPS
Users who download regional offline maps and rely on turn-by-turn voice navigation off-grid
Cyclists and e-bike riders who sync routes to Garmin, Wahoo, Bosch, or similar field devices
European buyers who want a German legal entity and EU-claimed application hosting (with eyes open on US SaaS subprocessors)
Multi-day tourers who will use Premium multi-day planner and worldwide map access

Poor fit when

Teams that require published ISO 27001/SOC 2, a self-serve B2B DPA, or enterprise SSO/admin tenancy
Buyers who need zero US-group subprocessors (Zendesk, Google Analytics/Firebase, customer.io, etc. are disclosed)
Users who only need city transit, business search, or car navigation—Google Maps (or peers) fit better
Orgs that need self-hosted or fully air-gapped outdoor mapping software
Anyone expecting a pure open-source product (maps use OSM; the komoot app/service is proprietary SaaS)

Consider instead when

When: You need general multi-modal city maps, transit, and business search rather than trail routing
Consider: Google Maps
Different job-to-be-done; komoot is outdoor sport routing, not a full Google Maps replacement.
When: You prioritize social training logs, segments, and athlete network over offline multi-sport trail planning
Consider: Strava (US; not in this catalog)
Compare community model and data export; not an EU-sovereignty pick.
When: You need a hard EU-only data path with no US SaaS analytics/support tools
Consider: Self-hosted OSM/GraphHopper stacks or offline GPS devices with local-only maps
komoot’s privacy policy discloses several US-group processors despite EU hosting claims.

OsmAnd

Best fit when

You want offline regional OSM maps and on-device routing without Google/Apple map lock-in
Hiking, cycling, ski, boat, or other non-car profiles matter as much as road driving
You value open-source client code (GPLv3) and optional F-Droid builds
You need GPX recording, topography layers, offline Wikipedia, or in-app OSM editing
Dutch legal entity and ad-free freemium packaging fit procurement/privacy shortlists

Poor fit when

You need always-fresh commercial POI/transit data and minimal UI learning curve (prefer Google Maps)
You require a signed B2B DPA, ISO/SOC, or fleet management product—none found publicly
Hard requirement to avoid all US-group cloud/payment processors (Cloud uses Amazon; web payments via FastSpring)
Commercial redistribution or white-label embedding without negotiating store/GPL exceptions

Consider instead when

When: You want simpler offline car navigation from another NL operator without deep OSM plugin complexity
Consider: Magic Earth (magic_earth)
Trade OsmAnd’s FOSS/plugin depth for a more consumer-car-oriented UX
When: You need commercial map data, automaker-grade mapping stack, or enterprise map products
Consider: HERE WeGo / HERE platform (here_wego)
Different data licensing and corporate assurance surface than OSM GPLv3 client
When: Primary job is sport-specific outdoor route social planning with device sync
Consider: komoot
komoot is outdoor route community + region unlocks; not a general offline OSM toolkit
When: You want everyday city maps with strong Central European coverage and tourism features
Consider: Mapy.com (mapy_com)
Seznam Maps product family; different UX and commercial model than OsmAnd plugins

Open questions for due diligence

komoot

Will komoot sign a customer-specific B2B DPA and publish a complete subprocessor list with countries/roles?
Are any ISO 27001 / SOC 2 or independent penetration-test summaries available under NDA after the Bending Spoons acquisition?
Which exact AWS regions and services host primary app data vs analytics side-paths?
What admin/export/deletion SLAs apply if an organization standardizes on komoot for staff outdoor activities?
How will Premium/Maps packaging and long-term offline guarantees evolve under Bending Spoons ownership?

OsmAnd

Will OsmAnd B.V. sign a B2B DPA and provide a current subprocessor list (regions for Scaleway/Amazon Cloud) for organizational use?
Exact AWS/Scaleway regions and encryption/key management for OsmAnd Cloud customer data?
Any ISO 27001, SOC 2, or independent security/privacy audit roadmap?
Commercial licensing path and support SLA if deploying beyond private non-commercial Terms?
