If I want to run an OpenStreetmaps apk (there's no good way to run OMS on Linux natively), do I get GPS and compass heading? Do I get turn-by-turn navigation? Even if the app is in the background?

Organic Maps has a flatpak, though oddly they don't refer to a desktop app on their website anywhere so idk how trustworthy this is.

Unfortunately CoMaps doesn't seem to have desktop client builds at all yet.

They do mention it at the bottom: https://organicmaps.app/#community

But it's less full-featured than the mobile-only versions.
