I also recommend osmand for android it supports:

- offline map and routing
- voice activated routing
- gps log record and direct upload to osm
- point edits to osm

Hmmm... I know that Apple uses OSM in the maps feature of the iPhoto
app, but that is only as a basemap on which to display geocoded
photos.

I'm not sure if Apple uses OSM in the actual routable Maps app. For
that they are primarily using TomTom data.
