OsmAnd is impressively capable (lemmy.world)

When I first tried OsmAnd a few years ago it was overwhelming, there is so much to customize.

I tried it again recently and it really impresses me.

My OsmAnd ski profile shows me slope for avalanche risk and 3D relief so I don't need Fatmap, plus OsmAnd let's you download 7days of weather.

OsmAnd doing routing on hiking trails replaces my need for Gaia.

Really impressive work by the OsmAnd team.

The nice slick interface of Organic Maps makes me wish it loaded and zoomed smoother. But yeah the things you can do in OSMand as a fully offline app is incredible once it's set up how you want it.

I wonder if there are simple interfaces, basically just a setup in osmand that simplifies it for people like my wife that does want complex

It is powerful enough that I reckon it can do it.
