If you’re looking for offline maps SDKs for Android, here are the most common options:

1) Mapbox Maps SDK

  • Strong offline support
  • Download regions for offline use
  • Good for custom styling and navigation
  • Requires a Mapbox account/token

2) Google Maps Android SDK

  • Supports caching, but true offline map downloads are very limited
  • Best if you need Google Maps ecosystem
  • Not ideal for fully offline-first apps

3) HERE SDK

  • Good offline map support
  • Includes navigation and routing features
  • Often used for logistics/enterprise apps

4) TomTom Maps SDK

  • Offline maps and routing support
  • Useful for navigation apps
  • Good enterprise options

5) MapLibre

  • Open-source alternative to Mapbox GL
  • Offline support is possible, but usually requires more setup and custom handling
  • Good if you want open-source and control over tile storage

6) OsmAnd / OSMDroid

  • Based on OpenStreetMap
  • Good for offline tile-based maps
  • OSMDroid is lightweight and Android-friendly
  • Best for simpler map apps or custom offline implementations

Quick recommendation

  • Best overall offline SDK: Mapbox or HERE
  • Open-source: MapLibre or OSMDroid
  • If you want navigation + offline: HERE or TomTom
