In the process of degoogling my life. Email and files are gone, but I use GMaps, still.
Google (still) offers a regular backup of your data to download. You can set it up to run at intervals and just download the entire thing. Includes file (and photos), email, messages, etc. It’s great for products you forget you were using, and great for an offline backup.
I use waze and google maps. Although I contribute sometimes with streetcomplete and openstreetmaps, their respective android apps are dog shit at navigating. Certain hiking trails and maybe biking trails though, they might be better but for things like driving cars, traffic reports, nearby attractions, google is still superior.
I’m getting by just fine on CoMaps usually, but I also live in the best mapped area in the world so the mileage does vary. If I’m in a rush I’ll bust out GMaps tho, have it set up in the “private space”

FYI Waze is owned by Google.
Yes, I’m well aware. I just like the user contributions part of Waze it’s like google maps but aimed for driving
