I agree with the routing points and I'm sure there are better apps for different areas but what kind of areas are you covering? I've got offline maps for 'London' (everything between Brighton/Hitchin/Gravesend/Maidenhead), 'Peaks' (Matlock/Sheffield/Huddersfield/Buxton) and 'D&C' (everything left of Lyme Regis). I can imagine it would be a PITA for Transcontinental Race competitors but that isn't most of us.
Sure, Google maps may work for some people as long as you remember to download the map beforehand, but why not use an app that is designed for the purpose and does a better job?
