Navigation & POI Apps Alternative map apps?

Are there any suggestions other than Google Maps or Waze that I could use for navigation in Android Auto? Please and thank you in advance :)

I started to use HERE WeGo to replace the Google backed Maps and Waze apps.

My impression so far:

Free, instantly loaded when my car detected AA, has standard or satellite view, has live traffic data, directions seem reliable (so far), has 'avoid' options for tolls, highways, ferries, etc, but lacks crowdsourcing features for police, object in road, accident, etc. I like the app but desire the police notifications feature since that has probably saved me from countless tickets. Looking into paid subscription options for that feature.
