Yes, that is one google service, I have not been able to leave
behind. That makes it even more important to contribute to open
streetmap.<br>

Indeed Pravin, you are right here.<br>
Not to forget that while we use google maps our location is probably
traced and perhaps even stored for police or other authorities to
make use of.<br>
Happy hacking.<br>

I don't see a totally free (as in freedom ) app available to

Privacy is a human right and everyone deserves privacy.<br>
<br>
1. I use <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://duckduckgo.com">duckduckgo.com</a> for search<br>
<a moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://ixquick.com">ixquick.com</a>
is another option<br>
<br>
2. I never signed up for google plus (or twitter). I deleted
Facebook account and WhatsApp. I use diaspora, xmpp and
kontalk<br>
<br>
I'm part of the team that runs <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://poddery.com">poddery.com</a> and <a
moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://diasp.in">diasp.in</a>
(diaspora+xmpp). You are invited to register and start
enjoying freedom (<a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://poddery.com">poddery.com</a> is full, but we
have space on <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://diasp.in">diasp.in</a>). There is also many
public pods listed at <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://podupti.me">podupti.me</a><br>
<br>
Use conversations + kontalk for messaging. I hope to be able
to make both of them interoperable soon. Let me know if you
want to help.<br>
<br>
3. I moved to <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://autistici.org">autistici.org</a> for email.
This was the hardest. You have options of using many
community run email services. <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://disroot.org">disroot.org</a>, <a
moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://openmailbox.org">openmailbox.org</a>
(also provide many other services like xmpp and owncloud) or
<a moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://riseup.net">riseup.net</a><br>
<br>
4. I use <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://cloud.libreinfra.org">cloud.libreinfra.org</a>
for address book sync (its run by a group of friends sharing
a vps).<br>
<br>
5. I flashedd my yu yuphoria phone and installed cyanogen
mod without google apps. No google play, I use only fdroid.<br>
<br>
6. I use k9 mail + open keychain for gpg<br>
