Cartes is probably the closest thing that I've found (besides Apple Maps or Bing Maps).

  • You can share links with anyone, and they don't need a particular app to open it.
  • The interface will be familiar to Google maps users.
  • It supports leaving reviews for locations.
  • It will pull up Wikipedia information and photos if any have been uploaded to Wikimedia or Panoramax.
  • It's really good for public transit routing.
  • It's okay for planning driving routes, but for turn by turn directions you'll want to use CoMaps (which Cartes has a link to open up the route there).

    Interesting. I really need one that does public transit.

    Funny how this one has random snippets of French in the UI.

    It's a French project, I guess it's translated in French before English. Non-English speakers are used to seeing snippets of English in translated UIs but I understand the other way around is unusual
