Pure Maps is a full-featured map and navigation application allowing you to explore maps, search for addresses and points of interest, as well as assist with navigation. For that, it uses online or offline service providers.
Offline maps, search and routing is possible with OSM Scout Server. Pure Maps will list OSM Scout Server among the providers if you have it installed. For it work, you'll also need to have the server running and map data on your device. See the OSM Scout Server documentation for installation instructions and follow setup instructions for Poor Maps.
Note: Online maps users are requested to register their own Mapbox GL key and enter it through the preferences of the application. This will allow us to use default key for application testing and provide the service without hitting free tier limits. Reasoning behind the requst is explained at TMO post, see follow up messages on TMO pages for users feedback and small details on how to enable and test the personal key. Note that without significant number of users moving to the personal keys, Mapbox key will be revoked and the users of Mapbox tiles will not be able to access it.
Note, SFOS releases support: As starting from version 2.7.5 Pure Maps relies on QtPositioning 5.4, SFOS versions before 4.0 are not supported. Corresponding commits are 616c406a7efdb1fe9cfa841ff0bbc8250860afb0 and ed4290634753f1bdcf962de35f36e0f092249616.
NB! Updates are currently posted at Chum repositories and official Jolla Store only.
As of 23 Jan 2019, the public Mapbox access key has been revoked. Users are welcome to register their private key in the application.
Requirements:
Pure Maps is a fork of WhoGo Maps and continues its legacy. Reasons for forking described at corresponding post.

Instead of CAPTCHAs there should be IQ tests before commenting...

Or just a shadow ban for pdelfes, a quick internet search should make clear to anyone, that he exhibits a pattern of shitty behavior, and by that I mean being a giant asshole.
