I was just watching the previously post video and now I have a question. What is the difference between the Osmand style and the Touring View style? I looked at them but am not seeing anything.

The video doesn't quite show the difference between those two styles, but
it's obvious if you switch between them. Also, Configure map/Map Style has
a description of each style. In a nutshell, the OsmAnd style is for general
purpose use; Touring view is more contrasty and attempts to display more
detail for a given zoom level. I've been experimenting with it in night
mode (during the day) as a means to extend battery life while hiking.

Thanks Bart. I will look more closely as when I switched between the 2 I could not see any difference. Maybe I will do it on 2 different devices to compare side by side.

Try the comparison with a dense part of a city. The difference should be
obvious.
