    Did osmand change its rendering engine to make it as smooth as OM?

      Something changed to that effect a while back, yes. OM continues to look and feel a bit better (possibly a subjective experience) but it is so feature-poor by comparison.

        I just tested it again on my Fairphone 5 and it’s still slow. I’m not talking about the UI but the rendering of maps. Unless they somehow manage to fix that, it’ll keep being a poor experience.
