Hello,
Maybe someone here has any experience and could recommend me the best android offline navigation map for Morocco.
Thanks a lot.

try maps.me they are offline maps, when I was in Morocco last week had details of very small tracks and Pistes. I used them on an Iphone but doubtless you can find Android version.
Cost £1.65
Only downside very limited navigation capibilities

I have had maps.me on an android phone for a short while: I have the free version which seems to have no navigation capability at all. For instance, it tells me to buy the non-free version (professional?) in order to set up and save POIs.
Would be interested to know how good you consider the maps are (the detail of the German and Swiss ones is very good purely as a map display, judging by the display of places that I know well).
It (presumably the "professional" version) is cheap at that price but so are many other, similar, android mapping apps and the difficulty then becomes choosing one or more that are suitable for the intended end use. Hence, so far, I have tried only free versions of such apps and not for mapping in Maroc.
The later posts in this thread identifies a few (quite a few!) alternative nav apps for android use:-

Maps.me uses 'Open Street Maps' (OSM) data. So does OsmAnd - another application .. and OsmAnd does POI and navigation .. the free version limits you to 10 'areas' (country if data is 'small') ... other than that it is the same as the 'professional' version. No Iphone version ...
OSM data is fairly good for Morocco.

Hope that helps.
