Description

Lots of apps use the Google Maps API to have embedded apps. There is a similar service called osmdroid that lets apps do this with OpenStreetMap, which would be an improvement, since it would be without logins and over Tor.

Ideally, Osmand would provide a way for apps to get map tiles so that they could show inline maps.

To take this all the way home, it would be awesome if Osmand also offered a clone of the Google Maps API to make this as seamless as possible:

oops, I meant to say that Osmand should show inline maps generated fully offline from the device itself
