I have just installed OSMAnd to give it a try but well; there is a lot of features to cover :

- navigation

- address search (not the first time I hear it is awful in OSM)

- pictures of places

- live traffic data, both streets and public transportation

- great search (like gyms near me)

- colored points of interest on the map. Kind of an hidden feature but that's immensely useful when you know it is there and you don't know the city you are in.

- reviews

It might take 5 or 6 apps to replace it entirely.

As for inbox, their spam filter is top notch and I like the automatic tagging system.

edit : just started trying OSMAnd, wow it is extremely laggy on my high end phone.
