But you can NOT install it on PC without further installations.

Hi Lijana,

OsmAnd app is only for Android and iOS.

There was an attempt of porting, several years ago, but as far as I know it has been discontinued.

However, you can install in your PC an Android emulator such as Nox or BlueStacks, and then have OsmAnd running in the emulated environment.

But don't expect it to be executed as smoothly as it would be in a real Android device and, unless your PC has a built-in GPS receiver, you'll need to have one connected, either via Bluetooth or USB port.

Kind regards,
Max

In an android emulator (I use Genymotion) you can use the app Fake-gps to emulate a gps receiver.
OsmAnd runs ok (a bit slow) in genymotion
