If you're in the USA, nothing beats the USGS free geoPDFs which can be read
into many free apps such as Avenza & PaperMaps for location & tracking.
 <com.Avenza> limited to 3 maps, but you can swap them out at will
 <ca.abbro.androidmap> unlimited but not as good a GUI as Avenza

For standard offline maps, this app reads in many free map databases.
 <net.psyberia.offlinemaps>

Almost nothing can beat the open source SatStat for GPS utilities, although
many programs appear to have used their source code to create their adware.
 <com.vonglasow.michael.satstat>

To "Clear APGS Data", this simple app makes it the very first button:
 <com.mirfatif.mylocation>

The best standalone compass, I've found, is Azimuth Compass.
 <ro.overwrite.azimuthcompass>

The best standalone altimeter, I've found, is Altimeter. 
 <org.ssandon.altimeter>

The best standalone track logger, I've found, is GPS Logger.
 <eu.basicairdata.graziano.gpslogger>

The best standalone GPS-to-SMS I'm-here, I've found, is GPS to SMS.
 <ru.perm.trubnikov.gps2sms>

For hundreds of USA parks, the best single all-inclusive trail map is
 <com.trailheadlabs.outerspatial>

There are tons more in my hiking folder (e.g., weather apps, star maps,
sunset/sunrise timing, step counters, wildfire info, radio apps, etc.

All those apps are free, ad free, and they work completely offline.
