GMaps WV: A privacy-focused WebView for Google Maps web interface. Enforces HTTPS, blocks trackers & clears private data. No real-time navigation.

GMaps WV

GMaps WV is a WebView wrapper derived from DivestOS, designed for accessing the web version of Google Maps when OpenStreetMap proves insufficient. It offers enhanced privacy features by restricting network requests to HTTPS and blocking access to third-party trackers and Google’s tracking mechanisms. Furthermore, GMaps WV allows users to control location permission settings while providing a secure browsing experience. However, it lacks navigation functionality, offering only turn-by-turn directions lists. While WebRTC is not blocked due to WebView limitations, caching functionality isn’t implemented, potentially allowing for data tracking without relying solely on cookies.
