    Not a turn-by-turn navigation app, but I've used BackCountry Navigator for years for hiking. A fairly large selection of available map types, and you can manually select with multiple rectangles which areas of which map layers you want to pre-download for offline and to what zoom level (full control over expended storage memory).

    Just my 2 cents. I started riding again recently after years away from it and dug my old Garmin Edge 705 out of the closet and while it may be old the GPS satellites haven't changed nor has my heart. Same old heart. It does a great job of mapping as well and you can use Open maps with it. Pick up an older Garmin. If you crash and burn on the bike kiss your phone goodbye.
