Foss OSM-based navigator (lemmy.kde.social)

Hello! I'm looking for a foss navigator app for my android device, but all navigator apps I've tried (OSMand, organic map) are missing a feature: when I calculate the route from point A to point B, on Google Maps a few possible routes are displayed, and then I chose the one I prefer; on other apps only one possible route is displayed, and if for any motivation I don't want to pass from a certain street or something like this, I have no other options. Is there an app (or a way on these apps) to make it calculate a few possible routes instead of just one?

thanks in advance!

It's not like this is a generic unrelated lemmy community, it's literally called "open source" (with a rule specifically saying "Posts must be relevant to the open source ideology" in the sidebar). there are a million other spaces where proprietary garbage can be promoted, I don't go around those places chewing people out for doing so. You chose to come into a space called "open source" to trash open source and promote a proprietary application, the fact that you are getting upvoted for doing so is just sad imho.

Anyway, you don't seem to have anything other than childish personal attacks in response so this is where I disengage from this thread.
