Maps.me is the same. Makes a tiny screen even tinier. At least Google allows you to make those bars disappear. I'm back to paper with Google backup!
Orient your device vertically. What's wrong with using pinch-to-zoom? I've used Here WeGo in offline mode (albeit for car travel) in Canada and Europe for ~4 years now and it's been fantastic. Most of the time the directions are clear enough that I don't need to even look at the screen, just listen.
Osmand is good too and the one I use when I'm following RWGPS routes I create.
There's also Komoot but I haven't tried it.
