    Sorry but this is just bs. The only important feature that’s behind a paywall is downloading offline maps for more than one country at the same time.

    And services like this have to pay for the development and upkeep costs in some way, since they’re not selling your data like Google does. There’s nothing wrong with having a paid tier.

      They totally are selling your data. Seznam is a targeted advertising company just like Google.

      Ah yes offline maps, totally not a core functionality for a map app. Its also not a one and done thing its a fuckin subscription. Even for the free features you need an account. WTF?

      they can change the terms, price and quality at any time

      Also this is reason enough anyways. Dont cuck yourself involuntarily by using and depending on software like this.
