Tried it for while, works with GrapheneOS and Android Auto well enough.

What I absolutely can’t stand is the routing. It once tried to send me through residential Oakland on some Manhattan-grade staircase labyrinth instead of just taking normal streets.

One of the routing options in CoMaps is "avoid stairs". Not enabled by default. See ≡ → Settings → Routing Options.

Honestly I've seen google maps suggest some absurd routes, especially to avoid 1 minute of traffic on the motorway.

Always best to double check the routing suggestion.
