Do privacy focused phones have such a service? What maps and music apps do they use if such a thing exists?

And refolding a map is easier than navigating those psychotic infotainment thingies.

A cheap 32gb MP3 player hooked up to the AUX port on your old car radio is almost as lo-tech as CDs but allows you a much much easier experience.

I keep a GPS in my car in case of emergency, but I try to plan my trips ahead by memorising landmarks on OSM. As a species, we are losing our navigation skills.

We used to cross Europe with just a small piece of paper attached to the dash with the names of the cities we'd roughly cross and it worked.
