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.
Indeed Pravin, you are right here.
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.
Happy hacking.

What about google maps?
I don't see a totally free (as in freedom ) app available to match
it so far?

I have moved away from google and I strongly recommend all of you
to do the same. It is mostly a psychological barrier. The
features we miss can be added to Free Software collectively, but
loss of privacy can never be compensated.
Privacy is a human right and everyone deserves privacy.
1. I use duckduckgo.com <http://duckduckgo.com> for search
ixquick.com <http://ixquick.com> is another option
2. I never signed up for google plus (or twitter). I deleted
Facebook account and WhatsApp. I use diaspora, xmpp and kontalk
I'm part of the team that runs poddery.com <http://poddery.com>
and diasp.in <http://diasp.in> (diaspora+xmpp). You are invited
to register and start enjoying freedom (poddery.com
<http://poddery.com> is full, but we have space on diasp.in
<http://diasp.in>). There is also many public pods listed at
podupti.me <http://podupti.me>
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.
3. I moved to autistici.org <http://autistici.org> for email.
This was the hardest. You have options of using many community
run email services. disroot.org <http://disroot.org>,
openmailbox.org <http://openmailbox.org> (also provide many other
services like xmpp and owncloud) or riseup.net <http://riseup.net>
4. I use cloud.libreinfra.org <http://cloud.libreinfra.org> for
address book sync (its run by a group of friends sharing a vps).
5. I flashedd my yu yuphoria phone and installed cyanogen mod
without google apps. No google play, I use only fdroid.
6. I use k9 mail + open keychain for gpg
